First thoughts ... hm. All I'm convinced of is that all involved parties have watched the show a lot. The matching is amazing. But to me, that's all that's amazing. Something's lost in translation, and it's not just things that 'can't make it' from cel to live. I mean, okay, all we've got is a minute or two of footage. But they're following the movements to the letter, and that's all. Lisa didn't look to me like she was grooving out the door. She just looked like she'd watched those few seconds over and over every night for three weeks. It's weird to talk about the 'pacing' of a trailer, but ... this is what everyone's seeing first. It's cool and all ... but it's left me a bit skeptical. I feel like, before actual shooting starts, everyone in this thing desperately needs a backrub and a margarita. Yes, even the baby.

This afternoon, I'm going to peek in and see what's happening (or has happened) to my beloved British Shoppe. If they're open, that is, and not locked down for renovations. I'm curious as to what this 'Currency Cafe' is gonna be like.

Actually, it's lunchtime, so now might be the best time. If you have been, take a nap.
