    Speeding ticket: Part Deux the Trial (not really, but the conclusion)

    Hey all, for those of you who remember my speeding ticket rant back in February (which unfortunately turned into a heated debate), I thought I'd post the follow-up to conclude the story.

    Rate "The Incredibles"

    I didn't see this started yet, so giving it a shot... Saw it tonight, it was fantastic! Great pacing, humor, action, everything. :D The detail of the animation was breathtaking at times... I actually want to see it again, because I think I zoned out a few times just marvelling at the artwork.

    Spider-Man 2 trailer, can there be spoilers?

    After the discussion in the Harry Potter thread about spoilers, I was wondering what some people thought about other movie trailers this year? I saw HP friday where they showed the Spider-Man 2 trailer, and someone in the audience joked when it finished. "Is there any mystery left?" I mean...
