Well, it's been a busy day, hasn't it?

To all of you lucky, intrepid bastards going out to see The Dark Knight tonight: Godspeed, good times, and giggle at the Twilight trailer for me. And don't you dare come back here telling me how awesome the Watchmen trailer was on a big screen, or I'll thump you into next week.

ETA: WATCHMEN OFFICIAL HD ZOMG.

ETA 2: Well... it's not as bad as the Twilight cover.

Black Canary is NOT S&M. Besides, we all know Ollie Queen is the Dom in that relationship.

[azuresquirrel.livejournal.com]

Is it bad that when I saw the picture I thought, "Dudes, if you think that is S&M, you need to LURK MOAR"?

[arden-ranger.livejournal.com]

Preach it. Why do my fellow Oklahomans keep electing these utterly ignorant fucks into office? Is it that the level-headed sane don't vote? What? It's embarrassing.

[tabbyclaw.livejournal.com]

I am thrilled all to pieces about the Tin Man Emmy noms. It was cheesy in parts, but gorgeous and incredibly fun to watch and play with (*is working on a My Little Pony custom of Glitch even as she types this*). And if there's any possibility of it turning into a series, a couple awards would probably clinch it.

[nohara-megami.livejournal.com]

That's my hope as well, that awards might make them think about turing it into a series.

I will cackle at Twilight in your honor.

Meh, if they can't get Winehouse for the Bond theme, Duffy's okay. I'm pretty much on the "Anyone But Beyonce" train for that one. [shrugs]

I can't believe people are getting up in arms about Black Canary Barbie when the Halle Berry Catwoman Barbie was clearly the actual S&M Barbie. Dude, she actually looked like a gimp!

[ponygirl118.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I stared at the screen during the Watchmen preview with my mouth hanging open. Dear god...

[raynala.livejournal.com]

LOL. S&M Barbie and the Colbert spider make my night.

The LJ basic account holders (all, not just the new ones) will still see ads, and their journals will show ads to the non-logged-in. Meh. I'm moving my work blog.

[discogravy.livejournal.com]

Those are not the Basic Accounts you've grown to know and love.

[this-quiet.livejournal.com]

I keep laughing at the Twilight trailer, I can't help it. RPattz just tries so hard to look smoldering, but he just looks bored most of the time.

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

OMG the trailer! I want more Rorschach, though.

Re: LJ, um, am I the only one who's going, "OMG X-Men trademark and copyright battles ahoy!"? Seriously. Like, are they complete idiots?

...I love Michael Caine.

Oh, and incidentally? ...I may have an MP3 of the Dr. Horrible "Freeze Ray" song...heh.

I can't even talk about The Dark Knight yet seeing as it isn't out for the rest of the world until next week... WOEEE.

BUT FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS, YES :D Us Kiwis are so proud.

[wirrrn.livejournal.com]

Sleestaks used to give me the creeps. I'm rather embarrassed by that now *g*. Of course, in the new film, it'll be Ferrell giving me the creeps...

btw Cleo, you must check out the Danish flick LET THE RIGHT ONE IN. A tween vampire who is scary, bloodthirsty and evil! It's like the Anti-TWILIGHT!!

[glyphs.livejournal.com]

The Dark Knight is awesome! I just left the theatre about 10 minutes ago and am now going to head to bed to try and get at least 6 hours of sleep before I have to go to work. I thought it was excellent and Heath Ledger was...well, he was excellent, too. Perfect line delivery in my opinion. However, I was disappointed by the trailers. No Twilight, no Watchmen in my showing. We had one for Quantum of Solace which looks great except it was the first one and the volume was really low so I couldn't hear crap with all the people. Then there was one for Body Of Lies with Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio and then a teaser for Terminator Salvation. That was it. Anyway, have a great time seeing it on Saturday!

[enid-keaner.livejournal.com]

Seeing Heath's performance depresses me about his death all over again. It makes me so sad that now, we know how amazing of an actor he was - and The Dark Knight just showcases all the potential that just died. I can't believe we'll never get the chance to see how great he would have able to become. I can't believe that what we're left with of him is all have of his talent.

[enid-keaner.livejournal.com]

I didn't get the Twilight trailer.

And I'm happy about that!

[peloquyn.livejournal.com]

You'll be glad to know that I didn't get to see a Twilight trailer.

And I won't say ZOMG WATCHMEN!

[fallingmallorn.livejournal.com]

Y Halo thar, Slughorn. Cute shot, there. And is that some Felix Felicis I spy?

[discogravy.livejournal.com]

speaking of watchmen, amusing easter egg: http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/07/17/exclusive-zack-snyder-reveals-secrets-in-watchmen-trailer/

Why does Veidt have such a babyface in this movie?

[duncanatrix.livejournal.com]

Because I know it's your thing, trailers from the midnight show in Raleigh, NC:

Watchmen
Righteous Kill
Terminator: Salvation

No Twilight...I was disappointed. There were a lot less than I expected, too. The guy behind me almost peed himself when the Watchmen trailer came on, and the entire audience laughed at Terminator.

[mercat.livejournal.com]

We didn't get the Harry Potter trailer nor Twilight.

But Dark Knight was freaking AMAZING.

[notemily.livejournal.com]

We didn't get Harry Potter, Twilight, OR Watchmen! I was so disappointed.
