We're all doomed.

I'm surprised no one's tried to remake the silent German expressionist film "Metropolis" (featuring the robot that inspired C-3P0).
I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an Obi-Wan to go.

Red heads ROCK. Blondes do not rock. Nuff said.

Save for one difference, Sky Captain was not roundly trounced. Many critics absolutely loved it. Tron was universally panned. There will be a rabid core of fans that will jump all over Sky Captain. I just won't be one of them.

I actually thought it was already remade like back in the 60s or 70s. Could be wrong. Probably am.

Is the original tron any good? I've read that it sucked even in some gaming publications.

Sky Captain has gotten some really great reviews and is still fresh on the Tomato Meter. IGN gave it a perfect score in both the theatrical and DVD review.

I'm surprised they didn't make Harold Lloyd's classic "Safety Last" into a "Die Hard" movie.

When I get bored/tired or my work, instead of screaming at the top of my lungs something like "DEAR GOD PLEASE KILL ME AND DESTROY THIS WORKPLACE WITH FIRE!!", I just chill out reading webcomics and posting here.

Yeah, me too. Actually I think I'm here more than I am concentrating on work. I should really change that. I feel like I'm living the Ron Livingston "Office Space" life right now.

I'm always acting like that. I don't really care. Except when I'm at this client and things are f**ed up, than I get serious.

Wednesdays and Thursdays are my weekend. I've got plenty of time to plan and scheme.

As for work...work is like being at home, except I don't have any video games on my computer and I have to dress nicer.
Oh, and I get paid for it.

Yeah, being paid is nice. Wish I could be paid to sit on my ass and watch movies. Damn, I never wanted to be Roger Ebert more in my life than right now.
