The only time I remember her losing it is when she's in the Chinese capsule, which she's had literally no training in, doesn't know the alphabet, and can only try to do things by analogizing to the Russian capsule (plus they've established that piloting the Soyuz was the thing she was worst at in training).

I've never been a big fan of hers (except maybe while watching Speed for the first time) but the film sets up the stakes and tension so well that I don't know if I've ever been so invested in a character before. Every detail of her body & mind & personality become important and precious. Even her voice.

HP3 definitely gets the "most improved" award from me; Cuaron took the series up to a higher level. But I think some of the later films (especially HP6) managed to get a little higher by standing on his shoulders.

And in the following book, get rid of the evil that is the progressive income tax!  Plus, give Jerusalem to the Vatican!

I haven't seen TWE, and have heard it's great, but I always wonder why people think it's worth replying that they know something isn't true when they have less to base this on than the OP does.

I really liked it too. Had some important stuff to say, said it in a very entertaining way, and then ended at a spot where most movies would go on for another half-hour for no good reason.

I'm with relish.

"Bloodwine Fervour" could be a Tom Petty song

Exactly this. If there happens to be one part of the ship that burns out as a result of combat, and is easier to replace than to repair, it could easily become the focus of a "We're Really In The Shit Together!" ceremony.
