The Brain

Mala Noche. Utter garbage. Worst photo I have ever seen in film. No script.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

How is it you are finding all the movies I loved as a kid?

I've been trying to watch some movies about my new home state.  Did you watch only 50s films set in Florida as a child?  :unsure:
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

These sorts of movies were standard fare during the 70s on the weekend at the movies time slots.

:lol:

That was my first reaction when I first saw the show.  But keeping watching it gets much better.

Maybe the Brain actually feels bad for Schwimmer's character?  :hmm:
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

It would be helpful to know roughly what you are talking about without having to look behind the redaction.  :P

The Purge- So the only thing stopping half the population murdering people is the law? OK then.
Nice, silly idea; one night a year the US government throws out all the laws and lets people do whatever the hell they want, this somehow has the effect not of causing massive destruction but instead of improving things by killing the homeless and poor and keeping unemployment and crime down.
The film....its OK. Though a bit on the dark side. Considering it takes place at night and the power going off makes sense in the context this is fair enough from a realism POV but it does make watching it in a well lit room somewhat of a chore.

I wonder if it was intentional, gets the audience thinking about him the same way as the troops.

That he'll finally hook up with Rachel after they hit Normandy?  No, I don't think so.

Finished re-watching Battlestar Galactica. Ending was still dreadful. I think one of the biggest issues was that the 2nd half of the final episode (I guess Daybreak Pt III) was entirely superfluous.  When your series finale wraps up with multiple jumps to events taking place before the start of the series (the characters lives when Zak Adama was alive and when Roslin slept with one of her former students), you know you are in for trouble.

Perhaps similar to how Lost ended without satisfactorily explaining most of the mysteries in the series, though I don't know as I gave up on Lost early on. :D

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Lucky SOB.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
