None of these films so far are scarier than the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Or as nightmarish as return to Oz.

Bloody hell,

The last time I had some blood taken, there was a Tv on nearby. Watching that as well a listening was a much better distraction than music alone. You could try taking some video clips on a smart phone to watch something funny and familiar

The idea that Science and religion are opposites is a modern one. What we think of as rational thought today was the product of Christian thought. Galileo is very much an exception to the historical rule, at least within the Catholic Church.

I remember seeing Samuel L Jackson on the Jonathon Ross show saying "I want a purple light sabre", But frankly I wouldn't argue with Samuel L Jackson.

I think that the first series of new Doctor who's use of toxic by Britney Spears was it's best use of pop.

Now Joss Whedon would make an amazing The avengers, imagine what he would do with Emma Peel.

Erm... So why is Doctor Who's darkest hour still to come? I'm feeling a little mislead by the title now.

TheDoug has de-evolved.

Now Nicholas Cage is swooping towards me. That's one powerful optical illusion. I wonder if I could use it to enhanse a motion comic in some way. It's a crazy hypnotic video, especially that bit at 0:55 where the wasp asked me to transfer all my money to an offshore bank account.

Damon Lindelof helped to make me excited about Star Trek again,

and yet if you made a copy by the same process YOU would still exist as the original

if it does could it also apply to atheism? Can any of us be considered rational at all if our memories are products of our beliefs and not the other way round.

that wouldn't be immortality, it would only be a copy. The you would still be linked to the matter that you are made from, or possibly the soul that is avatared with it.

@Vulcan Has No Moon: "Of course, it cannot last. Because their doomed romance is doomed, not to mention the story needs to reach some kind of climaxy thing." See? told you it had been done before.

@gtrevizo: I think the difference is that a male action hero gets a physical pummeling, while a female action hero gets an emotional pummeling. I guess I'm thinking of Ripley in Alien, who by the end of the film, has no physical injuries but has been put through the emotional ringer. I guess it does reflect our…
