Starting off the movie by killing the only loved child in the history of action movies or sci fi movies was stupid.

Really?  Gertie from E.T. got whacked in that shuttle?
:lol:
Newt is cooler at least.

My favourite is Alien. Not least because I always felt the ending of Aliens is too positive and upbeat. It's a great action film, but I'm more into horror films so that many people surviving just doesn't sit well.

Don't 3 people and half an Android survive out of an entire platoon?  I think only one marine survives.

Also, Alien is one of my favorite films of all time.  It's the best of the series, though Aliens is damn near perfect in it's own right.

Besides, Michael Biehn wouldn't commit.

Too many. It should just be Ripley, space and the aliens at the end of every film.

Yeah Alien's a desert island film for me. I think it's great.

But yeah I agree Aliens is an amazing action film. It's definitely one of the best.
Let's bomb Russia!

This lesbian chick on Chicago Fire needs to back the fuck off with the baby fever shit.  Makes me want to use her uterus as a speed bag.

Anybody planning on watching Hannibal?  They've already managed to fuck up some of the Harris canon as it is, I'm concerned they're going to fuck it up even more by the time they're done.

Wait, I caught like the tail end of the audio of an advertisement for it on Youtube.  I assumed it was about Barca.  Was interested; not sure now.

While I do love Hugh Dancy, I think I'll pass.

:hmm:

Somebody should write a book about Hannibal Lecter getting thrust back in time to lead Carthage at Zama.

Yeah, I'm a big Manhunter fan, too.  :wub:

And while most of the advanced reviews are all over the place regarding the show, they all seem to agree on two things:  the acting is superb, and Fuller has done stunning work.

Brian Cox and Michael Mann.   :wub:

On NBC?  Pass.  Maybe if it was on cable.
