SEVENTH HEAVEN ALUM Jessica Biel...wait, WHAAAA?

I must admit, that i'm rooting for jessica biel. she's hot without inciting a jealous rage among women everywhere, she seems pretty down to earth, and she got out of 7th Heaven before it was too late (note, my issues with 7th heaven are for another time, and another place). I'd like to see her have a hit movie (summer catch, blade: trinity and stealth do not "hits" make). and i'd really like to see her prove herself as an actress. hopefully just standing next to acting greats like ed norton and paul giamatti will have some effect on her skills.

i'm pretty excited to see it. my impression of the movie just from the artwork and trailer is that it has a cool, dark feel to it - and it's about magic. much like The Prestige starring Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale (yum and yummier) with Michael Caine and Scarlett Johansson.

let the parade of awesome "end of summer/beginning of fall" movies begin!
