I JUST saw National treasure yesterday. Yeah, it was what I expected...preposterous fun. Yeah, uh huh....you could probably stroll into the Queen's office in Buckingham Palace, The White House and kidnap the President (all this info is in the previews shown on TV so don't get your panties in a wad!). But it was fun nonetheless.

re:Legend - I reread the book a couple weeks ago just to refresh my memory. The book gives only the most skeletal discussion of how the holocaust occurred and what happens as a result. Really, it is just an outline of a story so they could have gone anyway they wanted to and stayed true to the book....there is little to stay "true" to.

Besides the standard outcome for the dog; has anyone else noticed (more in the past than now I guess) that you can tell which car is gonna get wrecked in the chase in advance? They always use a slightly out of date model...like a couple year old model - all polished up of course and made to appear new - but you just KNOW they're not gonna "Eff" up a REAL new whatever kind of car it is.
