Up in the Air.  Not sure what I think about it, in total.  It's a good movie and had excellent performances all around, but something's missing from the brew.  The pace also felt off at point, as if things were being dragged out for no real purpose.

8 empty backpacks out of 10.
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.

It's called a happy Hollywood ending.  The fact that it didn't have one made it even more wonderful.

Went and watched Priest oon Saturday night.

It was, yeah...

It seemed like a movie entirely designed around a bunch of cool visuals, with little to no coherent storyline to tie it all together.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Paul Bettany's attempts to be an action star have redefined the word 'dismal'.  He's just not that kind of actor.

Wonderwoman is cancelled.  That was quick.  The pilot has not even aired yet and it's cancelled.

It can't be cancelled, it was never started beyond a pilot to shop around.

The bionic woman, new knight rider, now those were  cancelled

Well, that was a surprisingly good decision from NBC.

Actually, that mocking the short lifespan of 'The Cape' was one of the funnier bits on Community a few weeks back.

And don't be shocked if WW finds a pickup on CW. They just ended 10 years of Smallville, and air  Supernatural, Vampire Diaries and Nikita.
