    Flatlfingers, I saw Eraserhead about 30 years ago when I was living in Athens Ga. A very strange film indeed!
    Cowards die many times before their deaths, the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I have seen, it seem to me most strange, that men should fear, seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come.

    Just saw Europa Report.

    While it is far from perfect either scientifically or in a narrative sense, it is an engaging film. It effectively conveys the risks inherent in space exploration along with loneliness and fear of the unknown.
    I know not what life is, nor death.
    Year in year out-all but a dream.
    Both Heaven and Hell are left behind;
    I stand in the moonlit dawn,
    Free from clouds of attachment.

    That's a great film!

    I watched Wreck-It Ralph. Not what I expected, but no worse off for it! :twisted:

    Guardians of the Galaxy was pretty good - loved the interplay between the characters. :mrgreen:

    Continuing my theme, I finally got around to watching Predestination...

    It's an enjoyable adaptation of Heinlein's All You Zombies, but (like the story) it suffers from the same problem many similar plots do:
    Spoiler:      SHOW
    A time agency preventing events using time travel must necessarily erase the reason for time travel. This is fine by itself (assuming a divergent universe theory of some kind), but then makes fixed-time events like someone becoming their own parent impossible.
    Regardless, it wasn't bad by any means, and certainly interesting. But it's no Infinite Man. :mrgreen:

    Looks like Project Almanac is next on the list...
    Games I like, in order of how much I like them. (Now permanent and updated regularly!)

    My favorite? It would have to be the Hulk, but I don't think they've truly been able to do him justice yet (the standalone movies didn't either).

    Early Spring - 1055: Well, I made it to Boatmurdered, and my initial impressions can be set forth in three words: What. The. F*ck.
