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.

Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Looks to be better than Pacific Rim.

No, the Pacific Rim trailer had Robots fighting Monsters. This one has Tom Cruise.

I actually saw Pacific Rim. Not rating it based on trailer.

Maybe this will be as stupid, but it doesn't seem that likely.

What or who are they fighting anyways? This trailer left me confused, and not in a good way. Why does Tom Cruise do video game trailers now?

More importantly, Emily Blunt.  Yum-may.

Could be alright.  I wish it were still named "All You Need Is Kill."  That's an actual memorable name.

I don't really have a problem with the lengths of the movies, just with the increasing liberties taken with the storyline.  It's gotten to the point where it can almost be called The Desolation of Smaug: A Movie Inspired by The Hobbit.
Well, it was always that: inspired by the world of Tolkien, not a transliteration of the books, for LOTR and The Hobbit.
Haven't read the Hobbit, but I have read LOTR.  I much prefer the movies to the books, wich are really boring and dragging on unnecessarily.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

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

Trance (2013).  I liked it.  Rosario Dawson is pretty.  This whole movie is really pretty.  But Rosario Dawson is naked in this movie.  It's a good movie.
