[The Straight Story]

got some theories and ideas - what are yours?

1. GODZIRRA! GODZIRRA!

Who knows. It's J.J. Abrams (Abrhams? I should know, he's making the next Star Trek movie...)

I've seen a preview recently. It looks... Godzillaish.

6. Wow - they've set up fake blogs about Ethan Haas and everything

8. And according to Abrams, Ethan Haas has nothing to do with the film.

14. Why does the Chrysler Building always get destroyed in disaster movies?

15. Recognizability?

Even if that's not a real word, it's the same reason the Eiffel Tower and the Coliseum in Rome get destroyed or the Golden Gate Bridge.

and the reason the Eiffel Bridge in Oporto or the 3 Gorges Dam in China or the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan don't, most americans don't recognize them.
