When we went to see Star Trek: Into Darkness<\/i> the other night, here is what we saw trailers for:- Mortal Instruments: City of Bones<\/i> – Because I guess something<\/i> had to pick up the audience\u00a0the Twilight<\/i> franchise left behind when it ended.<\/p>\n

– Hunger Games: Catching Fire<\/i> – Having read the book series, I have nigh-zero interest.<\/p>\n

– Thor: The Dark World<\/i> – Whatever happened to sequels with numbers? \u00a0Jeez. \u00a0Anyway, yeah, I’m there, even if it’s the same trailer we’ve had for a few months.<\/p>\n

– Elysium<\/i> – I’m sure Star Trek TOS’s “The Cloud Minders” \u00a0wasn’t the first to play with this theme of “The 1% Live In the Sky Over The Proles” in SF. It clearly, 45 years later, wasn’t the last. \u00a0Ho-hum.<\/p>\n

– Anchorman 2<\/i> – At last! A number! Unfortunately, not something I have the least interest in.<\/p>\n

– 301<\/em> …. er, wait, 300: Rise of an Empire<\/i> – And a number, but not representing the sequel. \u00a0Also, no. I watched the original, and really have little interest in an adaptation of Miller’s sequel.<\/p>\n

So … wow, that’s 1 out of 6. \u00a0Not promising.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
