The Contender. The dude, as President, still abides.

It's no wonder the wingnuts hate Hollywood with a blind hatred.

Saw 'A Good Day to Die Hard'. Wish I didn't. What an awful end to an otherwise good series.

Could not has been as worse as the ending to Deadwood.

Took off early yesterday and whisked the wife to a movie and dinner.

Saw Iron Man 3. Eh, not bad, not great. But what is up with the volume in movie theaters? I ended up making ear plugs out of a napkin and it was still too loud. I'll have to remember real ear plugs the next time I go, I'll still be able to make out dialoge clearly.

Is everyone going deaf?

They have to have it loud enough so you can hear over the sound of rude punks in the audience making comments to the actors on the screen.

Watched a good Norwegian film on Fios last weekend.; "Into the White"-- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1876277/

Pretty good flick and based on a true story.

Also saw the new Star Trek in the theater last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Of course I do kinda have a "thing" for Zoe Saldana....................
