I just saw Avatar tonight. I spent most of it looking at the scenery rather than the characters. So, I rather enjoyed it.

I saw Sherlock Holmes this afternoon. Loved it! There were a ton of previews before it that looked good too, although I can only remember the previews for Iron Man II and Wolfman right now.

Thrive to spite them
I saw a trailer the other night for a vampire movie, I thought it was called Daywalkers but I can't seem to find anything.
The trailer started with something like "Blood is our most precious commodity" there were some scenes that looked old with kinda Red Cross. Then some other stuff, and then a woman saying "my children are starving".
Then it was like a ad for a company, a pharmaceutical company that's "keeping the last of the humans alive for you". It showed a scared human on a operating table with blood being taken from him. Then switched to a scene with gray, thin people being kept alive, their faces encased in a machine.
Anyone know about this?

That would be the movie!
The trailer I saw was [link] that one, called PSA.
Liked the use of the Kate bush song in that first trailer, but it kinda showed too much.

Now tagless for your comfort.
askye, that't it. I looked it up on Wikipedia a few days ago to get some plot points because the trailers are too vague. Pretty sure I'm not going to go see it in theatres, but maybe on DVD.

I saw Dances with Smurfs yesterday. The plot was as predictable as reviewers warned, but some of the acting (particularly Sigourney Weaver's) was good. The effects did look much better on the big screen than in the trailers on television, thankfully.

We watched District 9 last night. Really very well done. I was impressed with the guy who played Wikus. Apparently he had never acted in a major film before.
We have a sitter and will finally see Sherlock Holmes tonight!

Clever plan, Cash. I should set that one up too.
So Beatles Rock Star? Fun!
