I'm so confused by this movie. Part of me is like, "Why Abe Lincoln? What does that add to it?" The other part of me is pretty much, "Duuuude. Also, Johnny Cash, dude."

You know, there's a fair amount of conservatism in scifi. There's also a fair amount of hippy treehuggery propaganda, but look at Poul Anderson, John C. Wright, Michael Flynn, Heinlein's earlier stuff, and heck, Atlas Shrugged veers in to dystopic scifi. (Rearden metal, Project X, and a frikking zero point-energy engine?)

Ach, too bad this will only be on sale for another month before they PUT IT IN THE VAULT FOREVER. Or until next week or whenever.

Hmm. I think he has my vote. If it comes down to a war between the US and Russia ever, we could then just send our respective presidents out to have a duel to the death.

Well, I'll give it this: The Josh Excitement Slider just moved from "Meh" to "I could probably be convinced to see it."

Hmm. Maybe I'll put it on the netflix queue after all. Gattaca's one of my favorite films, so I was sort of crushed when this appeared to be all about the whole OWS thing. Or when they started painting it to be about those hippies.

I want to say it was CollegeHumor that described Katy Perry as Zooey Deschanel without class or shame in one of their skits?

Also, someone tell me what the heck that other thing is-- it looks like one of the Nox from the not-so-awesome first season of Stargate SG-1.

Saw Red Tails over the weekend. It's a whole that's not quite as good as the sum of it's parts (Notably because only Terrence Howard was bothering to have any personality) but OH MY GOD SHINIES. The airplane nerd in me was more than happy with the movie.
