I saw Logan a couple days ago. I highly recommend seeing it even if you aren't really a superhero movie fan.
Robert Ludlum AND Sam Peckinpah? Holy crap.
Is she the protagonist? Does she actually shoot anyone with that bow? That would be awesome.
EDIT: trailer. Lots of great actors in this one:
I know, comic logic, but I like to think about cyber like that from a medical viewpoint.
I've wondered before how much your profession might influence your approach to game stuff... combat and such.One of these days I'll dig out the article I wrote (as a first year medical student) on Rifts full conversion cyborgs. You might enjoy reading it. ;)

Love to see it, Butcher.
Btw, did you ever see the Cybertech supplement for Shadowrun? I think that one was partially written by a doctor.
Last week I watched the two Guy Ritchie takes on Sherlock Holmes. I had initially turned my nose up at their action hero approach, but some yammering about James Bond on this forum put me in just the right frame of mind and I ended up enjoying them a lot.
They managed to be fun and funny and exciting without stomping all over what I like about the 'straight' versions of Holmes.

Complete agreement.Glad to have been of yammering service.
EDIT: Though on the subject of those Sherlock movies, I'm really unhappy that...they killed off the female lead right at the beginning of the second one after all the effort that went into saving her in the first. It was like that stupid Austin Powers sequel brush-off played straight.
ugh.
1993's Tombstone is one of my absolute favorite movies and possibly the greatest Western I have ever seen.
Dawn of the Dead is also awesome, specifically the 1978 George A. Romero original. It is the best zombie movie of all time in my opinion, and when grouped with 1968's Night of the Living Dead and 1985's Day of the Dead, it comprises a horror magnum opus. They even made a board game based off of it in 1979.
On the other hand, the 2004 Zack Snyder remake was just plain awful.
I watched Ronin for the first time yesterday. It's supposed to be this well regarded cult classic, but that last car chase through Paris, where the protagonists' choices clearly resulted in the deaths and injures of many innocents, left a really bad taste in my mouth.
Incidentally, of all of the above movies, Heat is the only one available on Netflix. I have no idea how I'm going to raise a kid in a world without Blockbuster. :/
I like Ronin well enough but there is a bit of hype going on. It is a good 90s flick but Heat is definitely superior in my book.

"Hey citizen, is that thing you want to watch not on Netflix or Itunes because of byzantine copyright negotiations and maneuvering? Well fuck you, welcome to the convenient future that is The Cloud, where culture only continues to exist on our say so! Hope you enjoy giving your info and even more money to sketchy rival sites. By the way, the following movies and documentaries have been 'disappeared' because they offend the current zeitgeist...
I love buying or renting digital. I'm a big Amazon and Spotify user. I got tubs of old dvds and cds taking up space in my storage. I know some people like physical copies of stuff, but I don't have the room.
I was camped out at a friend's house for a month and consumed a bunch of Netflix... really hard to serendipitously discover things on there, they seem intent on pushing crap at me.
I did see a couple things I liked though... namely Peaky Blinders and the recent Monkey King movies.
Another standout was I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore... that suited my taste for tales of oddball people attempting vigilante justice, ala Blue Ruin and Super.
Peaky Blinders isn't anything amazing... mostly just fun for the period scenery.I've watched a little of Peaky Blinders, and I keep meaning to go back to it.
