“Invasion”, starring Nicole Kidman, comes out this weekend. The trailer looks pretty good, and I like Nicole Kidman. It seems like the story has been done in different ways before.“Invasion of the Body Snatchers”, is the classic science fiction, about aliens invading the earth. “Invasion” is not a remake, but a modern day science fiction with a similar story. The last successful movie in the science fiction invasion genre was, “War of the Worlds”. Interesting that Kidman and Tom Cruise now have both done an aliens invading earth movies. Maybe, it’s a scientology thing, the religion is based on L. Ron Hubbard’s science fiction novels. I personally do like science fiction movies when presented in a current day setting. Projecting how the media would cover an alien event, and how people on the street might react. I find that to be interesting subject matter. I look forward to seeing this film.

Also I met Nicole once years ago, I was introduced to her by Naomi Watts, on the set of “Mulholland Drive”. It was before Naomi hit it big and her friend Nicole came to the set a few times to support her. She was really sweet and pleasant to be around. She was a big star at that point, and was not pretentious at all. She was also really beautiful in person. With her marriage to Keith Urban recently however, she has continued to show terrible taste in men.
…DEEP!
