I watched Star Trek Monday.  I was amused to see that actor from Heroes in it since supposedly so many actors from Star Trek appeared in that show.

:huh:

Were there any besides Takei?
Malcom McDowell had a role in one of the more terrible Trek movies.
PDH!

watched the Russian Film "Cargo 200"  Directed by Alexei Balabanov. Set in late 1984 and based on actual events. Very cautionary tale about drinking in boozecans where Soviet Police hang out. Not for the weak of heart. some very messed up sexual violence and completely insane people (Police Captain) doing absolutely anything they feel like including framing friends for murder of immigrants and kidnapping of young virgins, holding them in chains in your room with the corpses of other acquaintances.

8.00001 Creepy Police Captains who bear resemblance to Putin outta 10

My niece is now a movie star. :)

Movie is called The Phoenix, about a highschool football player who gets badly burned in a school bus crash but bounces back (with the help of his lovely Mexican girl friend).  My niece plays the lovely Mexican girl friend.

Yi, do you know katmai? You're in the same business.

Zatuhra - Better than the movie Jumanji which it ripped off.

6.77 older brothers lost in space and time out of 10.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I'm pretty sure that was advertised as a sequel to Jumanji, though I haven't seen it myself.

Same author.  I liked Jumanji. 
PDH!

Star Trek.  Although it was a fairly entertaining movie, I was occasionally struck by what might have been religious terror during the film.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Key Largo. A decent gangster flick based in Key Largo during a hurricane and taking place largely inside one building ala The Petrified Forest. Highlight: Ridiculous lines written for the Seminole characters. "He good friend to Indian", etc.
"Stability is destabilizing." --Hyman Minsky

"Complacency can be a self-denying prophecy."
"We have nothing to fear but lack of fear itself." --Larry Summers
