Moviegoings

Well, summer has definitely wound down (though try to tell that to Texas weather . . . my poor A/C). I’m suddenly realizing how unfortunate it is to be a movie fiend with a birthday in August. There’s nothing good to go see to celebrate. But one can always find something: Two years ago I watched noir classic Double Indemnity, newly-released on DVD at the time.

However, all that is really neither here nor there. I present to you, trailers for Harry Potter 6, Oliver Stone’s Bush biopic, and a teaser for Disney’s next animated fairy tale feature, The Princess and the Frog. Not sure what to think about the first two yet (Half-Blood Prince is probably my favorite of the series, just above Goblet of Fire, which was butchered almost beyond recognition), but the Disney flick looks like it might be decent.

Oh, and I have one last little tidbit to tack onto the end here: Rumors are circulating that Warner Bros. is interested in Johnny Depp to play the Riddler in the Nolan Batman franchise, and Philip Seymour Hoffman to play the Penguin. Of course, it’s really way too early for casting talk, after all, but those names in those roles are way too exciting not to mention.
