Damn it. Just damn it. I'm going to miss the commentaries, terribly. Lots of bad news today. Thank you for putting all the podcasts out there, it's been a pleasure listening to it. Thank you.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Stay strong guys, we'll keep Mike in mind, and I hope his road to recovery is a short one.

I really loved the movie. They hit a home run with me when they did Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and following it up with this makes me a complete fan-boy of these guys.

I wonder how the message of this contrasts with the Incredibles' message. Trey pointed out that the Incredibles was saying that not everyone is special, but there are special people out there. While this movie seemed to say you might not be one of those special people, but you can do something cool anyway.

When I watch this trailer I get a real 5th Element vibe, absolutely ridiculous, but kind of awesome. I really like 5th Element, so I have high hopes for this.

I am going to relay what a friend said about this, because I think he put it much better than I could.

"In a recent interview, JK Rowling stated that she should have had Hermione end up with Harry--but she's wrong. Unless her intent was to make the Harry Potter series into "Twilight". The characters created by authors are, in some ways, like real children. They take on lives of their own and sometimes do things we couldn't have expected or that we dislike. Pairing Harry and Hermione would have been too cliche, with a far less quirky and interesting dynamic than R & H. Plus, Harry marrying Ginny connects him to a real, loving family who accepts magic, completing the 180-degree transformation of his life that began in an abusive and fearful muggle household."
