I am still crazy about watching movies in the theater. The magic of an enormous screen and greasy popcorn cannot be replicated at home. Also, I love watching trailers. These days, trailers give away the entire story line (remember the movie Forgotten?) or they show all the good scenes and watching the entire movie is a wasted effort then (King Kong).
When watching the DaVinci code, I saw two trailers that had me shaking my head in disbelief. One is for "The omen". I guess every person on the planet has watched the original. From the trailers, this movie is not different ,so why are they even bothering? Another movie is the World trade center (yes really, that IS the title of the movie). Starring Nicholas Cage, this movie seems blatantly exploitative.
Here are some (hopefully) good movies to watch out for -
Cars - Way too cute, this is another potential winner from Pixar
Danielle - In the same genre as the DaVinci code, this is a limited release. Given its controversial subject, i am not sure if it will even make it to many screens
The devil wears Prada - The book was a fairly good read. With good direction, it could translate into a deliciously bitchy fun movie
Lady in the water - M.Night Shyamalan. Need i say anymore?
The reaping - Another movie based on religion, the synopsis looks promising
