Once upon a time Star Trek was f**king awesome.
Great movie scenes.

I assume there are those among you who have read Isaac Asimov?

Although Star Trek was a bit corny at times, one of the many things I enjoyed about it was the professional atmosphere.
Even though there are emotions present, most characters acted with intelligence and self control. Evolved.
Looking forward to seeing Foundation, although I never read the book series.
Looks dark, but gripping.

I read the original Asimov Foundation trilogy, many years ago (early 1980s) back when I was a member of the Science Fiction Book Club. Time for a re-read and perhaps I might read the other novels in the series. From what I remember, the story moves along very briskly, and Asimov does not spend a lot of time on character development. This is a series that is all about big ideas and the story, not individual characters.
Been watching the series -- okay I guess, not brilliant (parts of it visually very impressive) -- bears very little resemblance of what I remember of the books -- very, very, very losely based on them.
Going to see Dune on Saturday -- having higher hopes for that.
Unknown Soldier Finnish War movie -- 3 hours of it, worthwhile -- English subtitles (if a little odd at times) -- some very good forest combat scenes.
Experiences of Finnish infantrymen as Finland joins Germany in invading USSR in 1941 -- to regain territory lost to Soviet Union when attacked in Winter War in 39/40.
Best line in movie:
"One Finnish soldier can take on 10 Russkies."
"What if they send the eleventh one?"

Millions of lives are at stake!!
This just makes me laugh.
Get that shit off my lawn.
The two movies above are two of my faves.
Moneyball surprised the hell out of me.
Denzel Washington does a great job in The Equalizer movies.
His character, Robert McCall is cool, smart, skilled, tough, and kind. Some things we can all aspire to be.

In case you are wondering. I got the exact same attitude to my pixel crew in my games.
"I don't think so. He plays for Detroit now." LMAO!!!
On the other hand....this is what I turn to when even I realise the situation is all but hopeless. I´ll never back down! Amen!
