I'd be willing to watch most things Angelina Jolie is in. Although I 
keep moving Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (or whatever it is) 
further down my netflix queue when it gets close to the top.

I'm sure I'm going to love it. I was worried when it first came out, 
especially when I heard they'd used CHinese actresses to play the lead 
Japanese parts. I thought they (director) might have screwed it up 
somehow if they were willing to use the wrong "race" as the lead. lol I 
have too many bad experiences with people not having the faintest clue 
about Chinese or Japanese and lumping us all together. Especially in GJ 
where most of the populace has not been outside of GJ! lol

This, I've still only watched the first 10 minutes of. It does look 
highly interesting though. I'm happy to hear something good about it. ^_^

On an aside, I just found out that one of my counterparts at work is 
really into the Hayao Miyazaki films and Japanese culture. To the point 
that I convinced him to give me his "real life outside of work" email 
addy. lol
