Anya ,'Bring On The Night'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I was wondering whether the resemblance was intentional.
The music in Transformers is by Steve Jablonsky, who's from the Hans Zimmer stable. He's actually worked on PotC 1, Bad Boys, and (amusingly) Team America: World Police. So yeah, probably sounds exactly the same.

I went to see 27 Dresses last night. Meh.
oh good I'm glad I skipped it. The most interesting thing I heard about the movie was that the costume designers found it very frustrating trying to design dresses that Heigl looked bad in.
Believe me, they rose to the occasion.
There's about 3 minutes of her and Marsden singing "Benny and the Jets" that's actually entertaining, but I'd advise just waiting til that clip makes it to YouTube.
Thanks for the suggestions for government movies - I've got a few more to add to the list now.
More Imaginarium news:
Despite earlier reports that the director might shelve the $30 million production, Gilliam, whom Plummer describes as "terribly saddened" by Ledger’s death is "trying to work out at this moment how to continue on. Fortunately, because the film deals with magic, there is a way, perhaps, of turning Heath into other people and then, using stills and I think they call it CGI…
Yay the Librarian movies are at the top of my roomie's netflix queue!
I just watched The Fly ! That was certainly a gross movie. Good old corrosive vomit! But it was cool to see 1986 special effects. The Brundlefly looked like a real monstrosity, tangible and sickening. If they did it now, it'd be all CGI.
Also! I had no idea that "Be afraid. Be very afraid" was from this movie! It was so weird to hear it in its original context.
I always thought the movie was about a guy who immediately becomes a fly-monster and starts terrorizing everyone, but that's just because that's how it's always parodied.
My dad saw the original when he was in high school. He drove a bunch of friends to see it and later that night when he was driving home (his parents lived on a farm), a giant horse fly flew into one of the open windows.
He was so freaked out and scared that all he could do was lay on the horn until his mother came out of the house and to rescue him.
