Star Trek- my second time seeing it. What really stands out is the excellent casting and script. Everyone from the leads to the cameos did a great job, exactly the opposite of a POS like (my favorite victim) the Hulk reboot. Pacing was great. The BR transfer was very good, not up there with the true live action greats like Domino or PotC or the Host, but still very good.
Watchmen Ultimate Edition- can you believe this is only my second time watching Watchmen? I saw it in the theaters once, I think, and I was waiting for this edition. It is definitely superior to the theatrical version; the extra material adds background. It is also definitely inferior (still) to the graphic novel even with the additions. I still have issues with the change in the ending, as well as the lack of background between Ozymandias and the Comedian. Overall an excellent comic book conversion, however.
They pray four times a day, they pray five
Who's ways is strange when it's time to survive?
Some will go of they own free will to die,
Others take them with you when they blow sky high.
What's the difference? All you get is lost children
While the bosses sit up behind the desk it costs billions
To blast humans in half, into caps and arms
Only one side is allowed to have bombs.
