  1. Jason Bourne is.. Jason Bourne. I mean, it's entertaining as usual, but its pretty much the same thing all over again, Bourne off the grid, he gets pulled back on, the CIA assume he's up to something, cue chase sequences, a death to give him motivation, some corruption, shakey cam, fight sequences, Bourne skills, manipulations, and a few minor twists and turns before the reveal.
  2. Oh yes, here's one for Bruce.. The Totalitarian doctrine of social justice warriors
  3. Well, sad to say, they made the final season. Which I still have to catch up with...
  4. There has been that slight kerfluffle about how a bunch of news reports on the female athletes winning medals has been a bit.... "wife of so and so wins gold" Not even putting the athletes name in the headline, just their being a wife of a Chicago linebacker or similar.
  5. Sometimes, you just have to make time for the supercuts... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QwRbjgk9HM
  6. On the flip side of things: I saw X-Men Apocalypse. That was fairly entertaining and hung together mostly well. It did have a few disappointing aspects though, notably I think it relied on fan knowledge rather than being a stand alone film. They really skimped on background on so many of the characters, for so much about Olivia Munn as Psylocke and the new Storm etc, they barely had any lines or backstory to them. You'd have expected there to be a bit of depth to the characters being turned into the Four Horsemen, but I guess the focus was on Magneto for that. The slip in of "and third films in series always suck" was a fun moment.
  7. Saw Man Up, which manages to straddle the line of being a chick flick but not. Lake Bell playing a mid-30's single woman getting tired of all the blind dates her friends are setting her up on, on the way to her parents 40th wedding anniversary and she runs into Simon Pegg's 40 year old divorcee who mistakes her for his blind date. Rather than explain his mistake, she decides to go along with it and the shenanigans ensue. Drinks, philosophy, walking around London, lost divorce papers, encounters with old stalker classmates, competitive sports, and setting people on fire.
  8. I picked up Overlord cheap on steam and have been wasting idle time playing my way through it. Some mildly entertaining humour to it.
