Quick, is it worth watching 'Gravity' ?

So Ide, did you review RoboCop? My interest doesn't stem from the fact that it just popped up on a seafaring site.

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.

I saw it but I was too busy at the time to write it up.  It's marginally bad, more dull than terrible, albeit with a few rather interesting moments (for example, Robocop is assembled in China :lol: ).

Pick your battles.  Gravity came within a hair's breadth of an Oscar, tied in the Producers' Guild, was a lot of people's no. 1, not just mine, and was on practically everybody's Top 10.

I would say it was The Hobbit part 2, but I haven't seen it yet.

I watched it,...... a good film. 


Though I don't understand why they need all of three people to do casting for a sum total of two actors and five voice parts.   :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.
