And I still feel bad for Richard Kelly about Cameron Diaz giving away what pretty much seems like the twist of the movie, although I didn't see the reaction.

When she said it, it instantly seemed like something that would have been mentioned earlier -- by Kelly -- if it were supposed to be mentioned at all. So I looked over at Kelly and his face had turned GRAY and he was staring straight ahead. James Marsden on the other hand had this big fake smile plastered on his face. They both clearly knew what she'd just done, but she had no effing clue, just kept blabbering on and on. What a dingbat. I honestly feel for Richard Kelly. I guess he should have said what normally goes unsaid: that your talent should know what is secret and what is not, BEFORE you put them in front of a mic at Comic Con, for god's sake. The moderator did not seem to pick up on it, and when he got around to asking Kelly the next question, it took Kelly a moment or two before he could really function again. Poor guy. I was in Hall H all day Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and his giveaway (to a lucky fan who found a poster taped under her seat in the 6500-seat auditorium) of a real prop "button unit" from the film was by far the coolest of the Con. (Kelly opened the button and offered her to push it or not. She pushed it.) I was at the panel.
