SUPER 8

[krickets]

TRUTH: I am so, so, cynical about anything involving JJ Abrams but even I got butterflies in my stomach when I watched it because of the MUSIC and the big-eyed precocious kids and Steven Spielberg and shades of ET which is one of my all-time favorites, and even a little of that tingly sensation I associate with M. Night in there (shut up, I still love him, despite recent failures.) This movie's got my number. I can feel it. (Also, Coach Taylor, is that you?)

I'm really excited for this movie! Watching the preview, I got this crazy nostalgic, deja vu-y feeling, lol. I blame all the reasons you listed above - THE MUSIC, the kids, Spielberg, etc. Coach Taylor is an added bonus, heh.

YES! Nostalgic! See my mood for this post. Hahaha. It just reminds me of so many of my favorite movies as a kid and in recent film history. It is such a throwback to all of that. So yeah, I'm excited!

Ahaha! I didn't even see that! But YES - I felt like I was a kid again. Totally gave me goosebumps. I have a feeling even if this movie is critically panned, I'm still going to love it.

I agree with you on that one. I think they'll have to do something seriously wrong to make me believe otherwise.
