Watchin' Trailerz with Doug (Week of May 30)

I caught a little Starship Troopers on Starz before I went to bed the other night. Man, what a great movie. A few years after first seeing it, Patrick and I were so desperate to "discover" another worthy, kick-ass, under-the-radar space opera, that we actually saw the VERY FIRST SHOWING of Battlefield Earth in the theater the Friday it came out. What a nightmare! Suffice it to say (which is an expression I hate), NOTHING has compared to watching Starship Troopers for the first time 14 years ago. THE REASON I BRING THIS UP: Amy Adams has just signed on to Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master, which is a Scientology-inspired drama. So, after years of limbo, one of our favorite directors is finally getting to make another movie! Yay! F Battlefield Earth!
