    Khaaan! Should come back but only if portrayed by the custom Mego action figure from Robot Chicken.

    Well the Vogons 'blipped' earth out of existence in Hitchikers.....so anythings possible.

    I do think this looks really great and I love the cast and almost every thing I have seen. one question though. Why is the vampire world so limited in color? It may be the whole absence of life absence of color. I will have to watch it to find out if they include an answer or if we have to think of one our selves.

    You know you're getting old when the biggest draw of one of these blue-colored vampire action movies isn't the fang-fu, but the glorious hams Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill.

    My interest in this movie had only been increasing. It's managed to reach "see in theatre" levels. Well played, advertisers.

    @RandomFrequentFlierDent: Same! On paper I didn't care about it much one way or another but the ads they've been running on TV has changed my mind. I think it helps that it looks like a really visual-heavy movie, so the more promos there are, the more interest is going to be driven up.

    @RandomFrequentFlierDent: I agree. I may wait until I see a review or two. But it has captured my interest.

    It plays in an interesting way off the "they walk among us" trope, a favorite of mine. Except it's reversed, and it's the humans that walk among "us".

    Come to think of it, AVATAR plays off that reversal as well.

    "Blue Harvest" amazed me not just because of the detail in the animation (which had to have been a labor of love) but because they used the original John Williams score, and used it so well. Sounds like this one is also going to as well. I'm embarrassed to admit I had forgotten how great the score was until I saw "Blue Harvest".

    BTW, Mrs. Overclock (etc.) and I saw the "Star Wars Orchestra" perform selections from all the movies live when they played in Denver. We've heard the CSO perform some of it as well during their John Williams concert (conducted by one of his arrangers). Hearing motion picture scores -- particularly full orchestral scores like Williams -- performed live is an experience I recommend.

    I have this on order when it hits the shelves in the UK. The first one (Blue Harvest) was fantastic. I was also supprised on how cool George Lucas was in the DVD extra's interview.

    He doesnt mind people taking the piss out of Star Wars as long as its not too bad. And the way he goes on about new talent and new directors getting a chance to shine and how its not cool to go around sueing everyone for everything!! Nice guy! Kudos to Lucas.

    I hear they are making all 6 films. Or at least thats what the comentary on Blue Harvest points too.

    Fingers crossed.
