I generally think of myself as a person who at least *kinda* knows what movies are being released, just because so much of my job involves looking at photos of people at Comic-Cons and movie festivals, and yet! I was wholly unaware of this hundred million dollar adaptation of what is apparently a very successful YA novel series that I haven't read because futuristic dystopia YA isn't really my jam (*The Hunger Games* being the exception that proves the rule). In fairness, it's *extremely* possible that every time my brain read the words *Mortal Engines*, it put in the words *Mortal Instruments* and I was vaguely pleased for Lily Collins and then went on with whatever else I was thinking about. BUT NO. This is a whole other movie, with wholly other people, and they had a premiere in London yesterday, and they wore stuff.
