Star Trek was fine, I guess? I mean, it isn’t the worst of the newTrek movies but it was a Star Trek movie that seemed to forget several times that they have transporters and felt the need to use Sabotage (again) so it’s a tossup.

The problem with debates is that the fact checking always seems to occur two hours later, when nobody is watching. I don’t understand why they can’t have a dozen people with ipads sitting behind the moderator passing them notes in real time.

The Dirty Dozen, The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, Kelly’s Heroes, The Longest Day...

and an appropriately bananas plot THAT I TOTALLY GUESSED AFTER THE FIRST TRAILER

Since Suicide Squad is currently at 34% on Rotten Tomatoes, if there’s a conspiracy it’s a pretty big one.
