battlestar galactica

Finally watched the last episode of battlestar. I enjoyed it but I did feed that most of the Caprica flashbacks felt like fillers to pad out the episode. I am not going to go into a long rant about what I felt everything in the series really signified so don't worry about that. I did feel that the ending was fairly abrubt. Look they found Earth, lets give up all our technology and live on the land with the nice primitive peoples. They only thing I really would like an answer to is what ever happened to the cylons that went off in the base ship.

I could watch a quick mini-series about that.

Watchmen

I know this review is a little late, but I'm lazy.

I thought the movie was incredible. It stayed true to the story in the book but changed enough to make it work in the theater. After all, would an alien really have worked at the end? Even though it was almost 3 hours I was never bored or temped to start dozing like with other movies that length.
The only downside I see is that if your not familiar with the book you won't enjoy as much as us comic geeks, and the hard R rating and run length will hurt it in the box office.
I can't wait for the extended DVD with the extra scenes and the Black Freighter story.

I am posting a link here to a newsarama story about the Planet Karen webcomic. It is a great comic and and horrible situation, so read some of the comic and donate what you can.

Coraline

A little late for the movie review but here it goes.

See it!

Actually that was fairly easy.

This is a great film and better adaptation than most from a comic story. I highly recommend you see it in 3D if you can, it adds a little something extra to the experience.

Oh and read the book too.
