I'm still f*cking pissed off they canceled the Highlander game for Xbox 360. It looked awesome.

Star Trek Into Darkness.Not for the first time. Forgot how stupid this movie was... Especially the bits about the Prime Directive. As if "genocide" isn't a common go-to excuse for making an exception (Says more about the writer's biases then anything. Same people probably think victims getting gassed in some third world country is no big thing because they're not our citizens.)
Funny thing...I made a thread about this I think. About the prime directive. Because from the way they discipline Kirk it's like they are saying the proper thing to do would have been to let the planet die.
The Federation is supposed to be some peaceful Utopia, but they do not act like it.

The Foreigner (2017). A solid 7/10. When Jackie Chan isn't happy Jackie he is quite an intimidating Jackie. Good performances from him and Brosnan. Character-driven rather than plot-driven, but enough depth from two veterans of the screen to be satisfying.
Missed out on that film because of a lack of marketing
i'll catch it on dvd when its released.

What was so bad about it?
Oh, and I watched...
Food Evolution (2016)
Narrated by Neil Degrasse Tyson. It's about false hysteria over GMO foods. But it actually ends up being about a good bit more than that, too. Sort of about how information is spread in our culture, too. Very good documentary.
Gotta love that theme song....
