Walking Dead- So hmm, seems there's going to be some sort of alcoholic plot? Wonder what killed the nerdy kid, looked pretty horrible, related to the pig I wonder? I just hope he doesn't do too much damage, you'd think they would have a policy to close their doors when they sleep but perhaps in the easy times they have grown lax.
The zombies from the sky bit was cool. And kind of unexpected, the new black guy seemed tailor made for a one episode wonder whilst it looked like they were setting up the young guy for something down the line (showdown with Carl for the farmer's daughter's hand?). Kind of sloppy of these experienced people however not to consider the effect a helicopter crashing onto the roof with a horde of zombies could have. Pretty interesting we're getting to see some real degradation now.

But the black guy was D'Angelo Barksdale* and the other guy was some random nobody.

*Yeah, a supporting role in another cable tv show 10 years ago. So kind of a nobody too, but still one I recognized.

White House Down. That movie ended when they tried to pull McPoyle off as a hacker mastermind. :lol:

Really the first villain they have to expose is a redhead?

edit: Also I think I would have complained first about the chief on Fringe.

I've said it before, but I'll gladly repeat myself: this is the kind of movie that's just awesome in IMAX. My 10 year old self was a very happy guy that night.

I've never seen a movie in IMAX. :(

You could go see Gravity in IMAX. :showoff:

Just kidding, it's a free country, man.

IMAX is definitely not free in Manhattan. -_-

I try to catch some special effects movies in IMAX; unfortunately the undubbed versions are usually on at horrendous times (late night or during my work hours).

Hell, it's like $17 here.  Guessing it's like $50 in the City. :wacko:

I think it's $17 with the 3D, though.  I don't know what a regular IMAX screening is priced, probably three, four bucks less.

Apparently we only charge a polite 20.50 for Gravity in 3D.
