I was holding onto Windows because I used CheckFree's client. Well Yahoo offers the same service for half the price through a web interface, and here's the kicker - it's in cooperation with CheckFree!
No, I can't make direct payments using GnuCash but all I'm looking for is an electronic check register. I have no need for all the bells & whistles of Quicken.
If I wasn't too lazy to keep it up, I'd probably just use Gnumeric.:)
I ran a theater for three years, and can tell you that NO film comes with more than one trailer on it.
Very few (read: some Indies) come with no trailer unless it's already been shown at another theater & the trailer was chopped off. I've never seen a film arrive in the can that had more than one trailer attached by the studio.
What you're seeing at the beginning of each film is the fine splicing work of the projectionist who obviously gets paid to splice A LOT of trailers to the beginning of each film.
Sadly, most places don't abide by the rule I was given: No more than three trailers ever.
To answer why you saw a Harry Potter trailer before MI - it's because it was spliced on. No tie in with Disney, no permission from Disney, nothing. It was because the projectionist either made the decision himself or was told to put it on there. No other reason.
Hey - I'm 32 and I'm starting to like more grown up movies. (A while back I couldn't take going to "Little Vampires." My wife and son went to that while I went to see "Blow.")
Anyway - this one grabbed my attention, and I'm glad it did. I loved this from start to finish. A simply great story for all ages, and the animation was superb.
Next kids movie that I'll admit I want to see - Jimmy Neutron. It likewise looks cute as hell.
For you Star Wars fans out there: If the only reason you were going to watch this is to see the trailer for the next Star Wars movie, save your money. I understand that the longer trailer is going to be on the front of the Harry Potter movie.
On the topic of the short that preceded the movie - simply fantastic! I saw a bit on this in Computer Graphics World, and wondered when I'd ever get to see it. It's another good short from Pixar that I wish I got to see more of.
I usually don't gush over films like this, but I honestly enjoyed the film that much. Oh yeah - my 9 year old son did too.:)

Anyone else think the little girl was Andy's sister?
Didn't notice that, but I did notice her give Sulley the "girl doll" from Toy Story 2.
