Fnarrr

Random, fragrant thoughts: I've been strategically stashing scented candles in drawers. Can one's underwear smell too much like jasmine, you might ask? And the answer is yes. Yes, it can. On the other hand, I've dug out my BPAL and put a few drops of Tamora in an oil diffuser, and it smells fantastic. You know, even though the oil is three or four years old at this point--apparently the stuff does keep pretty well. I wonder if I have any Snake Oil around here--I hear that one ages fantastically.

Not much else to report, except that I'm tired and behind on work.

Trailers: The Full New Wanted Trailer!; New 'X-Files 2' Trailer a Harsh Reminder of Cold War; 'Hancock' is Poignant, Particularly on 'Ellen'; Trailer for Mischa Barton's 'Walled In'; New Movie Clips Galore ("The ComingSoon.net Trailers & Clips section has been updated with links to the new trailer for Steve Carell's 'Get Smart,' a fifth TV spot for 'The Incredible Hulk,' a second TV spot for 'Tropic Thunder,' a slightly different international 'Australia' trailer, the teaser for Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston's 'Marley & Me,' a new 'WALL•E' trailer, two clips from Adam Sandler's 'You Don't Mess with the Zohan,' a TV spot for Eddie Murphy's 'Meet Dave,' and the trailer for the thriller 'Transsiberian'").

Also: 'The Women' trailer. You know what? The Women is one of my most favoritest movies, and... I think I won't be seeing any remake on principle. Because, while the story comes off as fairly empowering (for 1939), if predictably sentimental at the end, I'm not sure the same story can hold up in 2008. It's just a different world now, you know?
