I’m geeking out over the trailer for Spielberg’s War of the Worlds. I mean…dude! It’s a great trailer because it piques interest in the movie without hitting the viewer over the head with noise and eye candy. I love the mise-en-scene (and I dare you to find five other bloggers using that phrase) that’s established in the closing shot. The suburban landscape with the ominous lights flickering on the horizon…it’s evocative without being over-the-top.
I’ve been sampling various podcasts. Adam Curry’s Daily Source Code is the most polished and entertaining. But given his background in radio, that’s to be expected. A lot of the other stuff is pretty geek-centric and I’m still looking for something that isn’t more or less a talk show.
