Spoiler Alert's Mission Statement

The first rule of review writing is not to give away too much, so the ending isn't ruined for the hapless reader. But where's the fun in that?

This blog's aim is to summarize and review movies from beginning to end, plot twists and all. If you've already seen the film in question, or if you just don't care if the ending is ruined, maybe you'll dredge some entertainment out of a review. Maybe you'll find something you agree with, or maybe you'll have a new understanding of the film. Maybe not. 

Either way, if you don't want movies... well, spoiled for you before you see them, then read no further. Otherwise, please, read on, and enjoy.

Trailers of the Week

In a post-"Dark Knight" world, we're all going to need other, new movies to look forward to. So, in response to comments left on my last post by Mr. Clayton Lomneth and Ms. Abigail Mullen, here are two trailers for upcoming films which I am equally apprehensive and excited about: "Watchmen" and "The Day the Earth Stood Still."



Discuss.

Michael Rennie was ill
The Day the Earth Stood Still
But he told us where we stand.
And Flash Gordon was there
In silver underwear,
Claude Rains was the Invisible Man.

I found a high-def version of the Watchmen trailer to mix it up today. I watched it on a 22 inch monitor at work. I might come back in the dead of the night when nobody's around and hook up some speakers and turn off all the lights and watch it again. Oh, and work's going fine.
