So, I do apologize for all the Myers-Briggs talk last night! But since you all seemed interested, I thought I would post some links to explore type and personality.
For those of you who had miss last night's meeting, we had a great discussion about the book, followed by a great discussion about personality style. Some of us speak freely and others are more reserved - but we all want to contribute.
If you have not taken the Myers-Briggs, you can do a rough version here:

As an official MBTI person I have to give the caveat that it is not the "real thing." Take it and compare your results to this page:

... to be sure it feels accurate. The second link also gives an interpretation of your four letter type.
I'm an INFJ, and the dominant type in the US as we discussed last night is an ESTJ.

panels to stills
Since Malka posted about the trailer, I thought I'd link to the GEEKANERD blog (yes you are in the land of the truly dorky now) where they took a few stills from the trailer and compared them to panels from the comic. See lots of side by sides here and here. Although it looks like they kept pretty faithful to the comic, I'm glad I will have read it first.
