I've been at work and stuff and just got to see it now. And I LOVED IT! The voice-over and the cuts totally work for me. Maybe I'm a sucker, but it looks good to me. The feeling that there's a red thread, a full story, not the patchwork I was worried about, it strong here. It's actually given me hope for this movie!

And looking around it's a bit like i'm alone... so. uh. Anyone else like it...?

No! I loved it!

I think you, watching it late, got the second wave responses. The early responses were all positive. Then you got the people who started asking questions about it and poking holes in it, and the people who watched it a few times and came away with legit criticism. Then you got some people who were just looking for reasons to hate it. I think we're starting to get another wave of people who like it again.

Thank you! That made me feel a lot better <3 You're probably right about the waves. And of course there are things to criticise, I mean, that's legitimate of course. (Also taste varies which is also fair.) Looking forward to that next wave of excitement then :)

Also stumbled across a hilarious post on my tumblr feed with someone observing that (me paraphrasing here:) "OMG new trailer - I can't wait to hate everything about it and reblog everything from it anyway" was apparently a common response. That made me laugh ;)

I got told how awesome it was multiple times before I saw it. So, you certainly are not alone kabal.

That might be part of my reaction. It got built up in my head. I'm by no means underwhelmed, but I'm not overwhelmed with feels either. I guess I'm just "whelmed".

Aw. I'm sorry. Having something hyped before seeing it is bad - especially because it can never quite live up to it. Being "whelmed" sounds quite familiar, actually.
