The new show Mister Sterling is set in the same world as the West Wing. This means I might give it a try.

New Daredevil trailer. Glimpses of what the world looks like to Daredevil and.... Wow. See, I can see where people might think it's full of cheese, but I love it. The Evanescene song is used very well in it. Stan Lee! Go take a look. I think what is greatest about this movie is that this isn't an origin story - not really. This ... It's hard to explain, but it would be like putting A Death In The Family on screen. I'm not a big Daredevil person, but I know how pivotal this story is to the character and his world. And the track listing is up on the website.

People are babbling about the title for Episode III. I'm not looking. I'm not. I said I wouldn't. Damn it. Two and a half years spoilerless. I will go crazy.

And I think that's it, really for the moment.

I have paid no attention to the babbling, but I say the title should be "Fall of the Jedi." That dovetails nicely with the title for Episode VI, see.

Hmmmmm. That would be good. Also something about cycles or seasons or something like that would be appropriate.

Don't you think you'll see the title of the movie sometime before you go in to see it. Is that really a spoiler?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Well, likely, but it's the principle of the thing, really. I'm just not going to go look at spoilers for it.

I hadn't heard of Mr. Sterling until last night. It's supposed to be about an honest senator or something? I thought it sounded interesting too.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

An honest senator or a people's man or something like that, yes.

What was the song used in the first trailer for DD? I liked that one a lot.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

The one you're likely thinking of is Bodies by Drowning Pool. It's a favorite of mine as well.

[skidspoppe.livejournal.com]

is that the one that goes "supercallifragilistic when we start we go ballistic"?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Oh! That one!

*does some quick research*

No, that is Velocity Shift by Overseer. That album comes out in ... March, I think.

Just watched the DD trailer. I've been a big fan for a long time. (Since 1978-82, when Frank Miller had his run). Now, it looks pretty good...except for Affleck's voiceovers. He's alright, but I just imagined DD sounding I dunno. Different, grittier.

And why do all superheros hafta show their face to the villian in movies? All except Batman, wait no: He showed Catwoman. If you show the face, that automatically means that the villian hasta die. Killing Kingpin would be a dumb mistake, IMO.

I don't think they'll kill Kingpin. And I don't know why they always do that. I liked how in the last Birds of Prey I watched they made a big deal about Huntress not wearing a mask. Huntress was all, "I have a secret identity." Oracle, Alfred and Dinah were all like, "No you don't. How can it be secret if you don't have a disguise?"
