    Godzilla

    Saw it, loved it. Personally I would classify this as a disaster movie, not a monster flick. But no matter how you categorize it, humans have to be central to the story in that what happens to them is important to see. This movie gives us just that. What happens to us and how we react to...

    A million ways to die in the west

    You do come off as prickly sometimes.

    Akira Project

    This doesn't do it for me. While I admire the work these filmmakers put into this clip, I don't fancy the idea of seeing a scene for scene live-action copy of the anime. The anime, in my eyes, still holds up superbly in terms of animation quality. If they do do a live-action movie I hope they...

    A Necro-Biological Explanation of the Fermi Paradox

    Well, you have different kind of zombies in fiction. Zombies that show raging humans like in 28 days later could maybe perhaps be possibly conceivable to happen. Maybe.

    Bradley Cooper as Indiana Jones? Didn't see that coming!

    http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0151419/?ref_=tt_cl_t5 Kyle Chandler has the 50's look and I think he's a quality actor. I think the franchise would be better served with a 10 episode mini-series than a feature length.

    So...any nudity?

    Only in America

    Taking an ambulance ride costs a thousand dollars. Ubiquitous air-conditioning. Everyone has a car. Everyone. Enormous diversity of nature and great open spaces. Malls. They exist in other places but I remember there being a mall or a large outlet in nearly every largish town in MN...

    A business/industry you would not work in?

    I suppose if the situation was sufficiently dire then there would likely not be a job I wouldn't be willing to do. If it puts food on the table for me and mine and I'm not in a position to find something better I have qualms about doing work I would normally oppose. Even if it is immoral. But...

    Gargoyles almost all on youtube!

    This isn't available in my country. Fortunately, downloading is legal here and I think I already have it.

    The Lego Movie

    It's not three separate titles. I don't know why he wrote it like that. The movie is called "101 Dalmations Die Hard in Robocop".

    War on Sugar?

    The problem is that they strain public resources because of increased health problems. Also, if someone is suffering from alcohol and drug addiction, you step in to help them. The same with abuse of some foods.

    War on Sugar?

    Do the studies show a direct correlation between higher prices and reduced use or could it also be a number of other factors such as a ban on advertising and a strong anti-smoking campaign?

    Today's Bill Cosby?

    Bill Cosby still does stand-up.

    War on Sugar?

    As far as I understand it, and I am by no means learned on the subject, too much sugar greatly increases the risk of developing some forms of diabetes and heart disease. So unless you actually overdose on sugar it won't directly kill you but it can decrease your life expectancy greatly. As far...

    My pride in my country is no longer there

    Isn't vodka used in a lot of mixes and flavored shots? Then I can understand the massive consumption. I didn't realize Americans made whiskey. I get all my stuff from Scotland and Japan. Maybe I'll give it a try next time I'm in the whiskey bar.

    Oh god no

    I don't smell a flop. I smell a high powered marketing campaign and another couple billion dollar grossing movies.

    Oh god no

    There was money involved in After Earth? I thought it was financed by poor judgement and nepotism.

    From Dusk til Dawn TV series trailer

    True. This looks more like a low budget fan made thing but maybe they're trying to cash in on vampire interest for an adult male audience.

    From Dusk til Dawn TV series trailer

    It has nothing to do with a lack of talented writers or other creative people. Hollywood is a business. It makes sense in order to make money they'll use things that worked before.

    Hobbit review thread

    That's a pretty sad observation on the state of action/adventure movies that women have no reason to be there except as love interests.
