Hey Ide.
Babadook is playing one show only tomorrow here in town. Worth checking out?

Oh yes, though expectations should be calibrated lower than a Friedkinesque "ZOMG BEST HORROR MOVIE EVER."

So, season 2 of Arrow was great. Now finally I have caught up to season 3.  :cool:

Season 1 is the test of faith that has to be endured in order to reach the vast riches of season 2.
Really?
I started one quite enthusiastically but now it is on my "have on in the background every so often" pile. I haven't quite totally dropped it but cloSe

It does pick up immensely in season 2, imho.

The Imitation Game.
GOod movie. Succeeded in no small part due to good acting from the leads. 
3.5 dead Nazis out of 5.
PDH!

My only complaint with this show is it's too pretty. They need to dirty it up. Other than that 8/10

It is much more gritty/dirty than Flash, FWIW.

Edit: or do you mean more dirty as in m0Ar p0rn?

Martinus

I like the more frequent crossovers to Flash, by the way.

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm already riled by the invented Soviet subplot <_<

I suppose pirates were looking for the shitty 2014 remake, and ended up downloading the original by mistake - and to their benefit.

Or a better copy was uploaded.
If I was a movie :pirate: I would have downloaded all of that list this year.  :D

Last few movies: The Maze Runner, not as bad as I expected. The Croods, very nice, liked it, I'd say it is good. The Interview, very stupid with some funny parts.

One thing I have come to conclude about piracy, it's not worth it when it comes to movie spectaculars and it's not worth it when it's available on streaming. Once you ask yourself how much is your own time worth to you it becomes cheaper to buy.

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.

Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning.

What the fuck?

It's not perfectly executed, but the last thing I was expecting was Noe meets Refn meets Cronenberg meets Apocalypse Now with some of the best fight scenes I've ever seen? 

That was really surprising.

Best Hyams movie in a long while or so I have heard. A good surprise for many people so you are not the only one.
