Inside Number 9.

Wonderful, exceptionally dark comedy series from Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith of League of Gentlemen. It's very, very good indeed.
Let's bomb Russia!

IFC seems to have larded up its ad/content ratio recently.  :glare:

I never watched God and Generals, is it as good as Gettysburg?
It is bad.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

You kids and your slang.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Lincoln.  The story is not that interesting.  B

Revisited World War Z. If you forget completely about the book, there's a semi-decent actioner buried veeeeeeery deep inside there. So it's bad, just not totally awful as I first thought.

Also revisited Argo and I liked it way less than during my first viewing. Suppose I was so enthralled by the concept (I wasn't familiar with the historical Canadian Caper at the time), that all the cheap tricks and dramatic licenses the movie uses to create excitement didn't jump out at me as badly as they did in this second viewing. I'm not much of a bitch regarding historical accuracy in films, but if your main selling point is that "this incredible story happened for real", and you even go with a cinema-verité-ish look for large parts of the film (loved the assault on the embassy scene), then souping it up to create absurd car chases and tension is not kosher. It made it feel fake.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I'm watching true detective. Can't decide if I like it or not. Only on episode two. Also keeping trying to figure out which one is seedy.
