Easterhay's disappeared into the ether once again. That's definately good news, am I right?

 Only time will tell...

 Meaning it might be bad news?

I found a dead black widow spider in my garage today, and damn, if she isn't a big sucker; I knew black widows got big, but I wasn't sure they ever got this big.

Anyways, I collected her corpse and sealed it up in a jar.

As for why this is good news, I've always wanted to see an unambiguously female black widow up close ever since I was in the First Grade; now I finally have (even if it is dead).

I didn't see any lens flare in the trailer for the new Star Wars movie so maybe JJ is over this kick of simulating a broken camera and making it impossible to see what is happening in the movie.

tell me, is John Williams doing the soundtrack for the new movie?

 Yeah he is and I have to say no one loves John Williams more then I do but with JJ directing part of me was kind of hoping we would get to hear Giacchino's take on Star Wars for an interesting change.  But hey you can't have everything.

You need another plan! Frink lit my lawn on fire years ago. It still hasn't grown back.

 Darn it!  I guess I will just have to use the tired old fallback of nuclear weapons then. I wanted to be more creative then that.

 um . . .no.  No one is allowed to touch a Star Wars movie soundtrack but Williams.

 The man is like a thousand years old at this point it has to be something the producers are at least planning for, I mean if he were to drop dead tomorrow I wouldn't want them to cancel episodes eight and nine because I get the feeling this story is planed as part of trilogy.

Also as much as I love Williams(and if you look at the number of his soundtracks I own that is a lot)I have to admit the last score he did that didn't feel like a complete retread of his earlier scores was Catch Me if you can and that was more then a decade ago. Maybe at least giving him someone new to work with to help him come up with some new ideas wouldn't be that bad of a move.

There's some during both the X-wing and Falcon shots, but they are quite effective and restrained.  We'll probably see a few more of that kind of thing during other effects shots especially...and as long as we don't get the kind of over-powering type that we saw in his Trek movies, then I'll be more than happy with those kind of subtle ones.

 Well since I didn't notice it any of the five times I watched the trailer then I am fine with it. But there were times in the theater when I went to see the star trek movies where I had to look away from the screen because it hurt my eyes and then on home video there are still scenes where I have a hard time figuring out what is going on. As long as it doesn't get that bad I am good.

Keep in mind that the trailer isn't necessarily final footage.... ;)

 Oh yeah.  I think I will wait for the reviews before seeing this movie. JJ seems to have no understanding of how film making works or what restraint is. Say what you will about the prequels and the SEs but at least I could see what was happening in them.
