Oblivion, liked it. Some good twists for what I thought was a mostly predictable movie. Visually awesome, entertaining film.
Grand Duke of Lurkdom

Heard that the networks have pulled the next in sequence episode of Hannibal due to the story involving children killing children. It's going to appear as a series of webisodes. The story arc will obviously suffer because of this.

Yeah, CdM already mentioned this, and we decided that this meant that the show was as good as cancelled.

Probably too good a show for NBC anyway.

I was actually pretty impressed.  There were times when I thought I was watching a cable show.  But yeah, it would naturally be better somewhere else, although not CBS (which only makes laugh-track comedies for old people), ABC (which only does soap operas) or Fox (which is just fucking ridiculous).

The acting is over the top, the script is infantile, the plot is predictable, and the storyline is about as realistic as getting a hand job from Queen Elizabeth...but it symbolizes everything about patriotic Hollywood:  big, loud and stupid in red, white and blue.
