Movie Geek

After the excitement of X2 and Matrix:Reloaded has evaporated, I was left wondering... "Well? What next?"

Of course, like any proper movie geek, all eyes are forward towards "Return of the King" when Peter Jackson unroll the final episode in the marvellous Lord of the Rings trilogy. For that, I simply cannot wait.

But that's a whole 5 months and 15 days away... But who's counting?

So I figured I'd try and find something to look forward to in the meantime. Roll up Apple Trailers. Yay! for broadband and Yay! for online trailers!!!

First cab off the rank, a good old Chick Flick.
Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde. The first movie was a real surprise. I'm not much of a "ditzy cheerleader" type, so I thought I was going to sleep through the entire movie, or patiently wait til the ritual After Movie Coffee.

I surprised myself. I enjoyed it. It didn't take itself too seriously, which I think was the most important thing about the whole flick. The sequal looks like it's taken all the good parts from the first one (even that rat-arsed little dog), mushed them all up and pressed them into a new moulde. Politics.

Opens July 2.

THEN.

*cue dramatic style music*
UNDERWORLD

Words cannot adequatly describe.

Looks and sounds like "Matrix" crossed with "The Crow" crossed with "Dracula 2000". For the fangirls: Scott Speedman looking all scruffy and lovable. For the fanboys: Kate Beckinsdale and a lot of leather.

Go check out the trailer. Tell me I'm not alone in the fangirl excitement.
