Started Skyline.  Five minutes in and I can tell it'll be crap.

Super-8 wasn't bad.
PDH!

I mean, it's no Explorers, but it's trying to be Explorers, and since that's one of the best movies ever made, I'll give Abrams credit for that.

Slight correction, btw--I said Django Unchained was the first great movie I saw in theaters all year, but that is forgetting Moonrise Kingdom, which is also great and very much almost as good, although I'm not sure two movies could be more different.

Bill Murray could make it work.

Skyline was terrible.  It didn't have any redeemable qualities.  Annoying and unlikable characters and really silly aliens.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Explorers, now there was a classic.  Approaching the midpoint in SKyline and I still have no idea who these people off or why I should care.  Kinda just hoping they all die.
PDH!

The Wire is on sale at Amazon on download.  Each season is $12.99.  Oy.  Everyone but Seedy should buy this and watch it.

Watched the Seven Samurai again. It was a lot less slow than I remembered.

Classic. Have you seen 13 Assassins?

:yes:

You know they are Samurai in 13 assassin's and not Ninjas?

it's that Twilight chick.  Hard to find a worst actress.

I finally remembered why I felt, deep in my heart, why Seven Psychopaths was so derivative, when I watched Adaptation again.  What a great movie.

Ok guys, with most of my favourite tv shows (Dexter, Game of Thrones, Community, True Blood, American Horror Story, Modern Family, New Normal, Glee) either being between seasons or on a mid-season hiatus, recommend me some good show to watch. Preferably not more than in its second or third season now as I don't like to watch back too much.

Is Downton Abbey any good?
