I saw it yesterday... the robot fighting stuff is pretty awesome to watch but I found the father/son stuff to be a little grating (more so than Spielberg's other movies). Overall I'd give it a solid B, but if you are expecting "Rocky, But With Robots" or "Rock Em Sock Em: The Movie" you will be disappointed.

True, it just kind of caught me as a little awkward when I first saw it. Just as it's hitting you that he's going to be stuck there forever, there's a "but wait! we can bring her back!" that took me out of the moment a little. I'm a Spielberg fan but this and the ET guns/radios thing are two things I disagree with.

I actually thought the same thing... however, I didn't see anything about them taking a lock of hair and magically bringing her back for a day. I think the film (which I enjoyed) works better with a sadder ending, whether it's the coda as Kubrick envisioned it or simply at the bottom of the ocean. Interesting article…

I couldn't agree with you more.

True... I think it works the same way since the characters can see the new color / smallest particle / dance but we only see grey / pixel / tiptoe move.

Looks like you put on a little bit of weight though...

And, you never see him actually do the dance, it's just him striking the one pose with the "moving lines" background.

I love space combat as much as anyone but it is often done very poorly because Space is an Ocean. (warning: clicking this link will trap you in a time vortex)

I said the same thing but I gave it a shot and really liked it. If you haven't tried it give a couple of episodes from S5 of the new series.

Agreed... there was plenty of stuff original to Caprica (the Ha'la'tha, for example), with just enough callback/callforward to stuff that was familiar to BSG. But it took waaay too long to get to the good stuff, and took a huge midseason break that killed the momentum it had been building.

PSYOP is a fascinating subject and I think WWII is when it really developed/advanced (at least in the US). Saw a great display of German and Allied leaflets, the best one showed a family in a warm house split with a soldier and a foxhole and said "Where would you rather be for the holiday?"

IIRC his character in our universe is new to the FBI and very new to Fringe, so he probably won't be doing as much cool stuff as alt-Lincoln (in the beginning, anyway).

A 5:17 good movie ratio is pretty depressingly low... honestly there isn't a lot on this list that I am too excited about.

+1. This is the picture I came here hoping to see!

CJ, thank you for watching this movie so we don't have to!

I still think he is taking it up to 11 but I don't really buy it. Like, Esther is already clearly distraught, do you think screaming and blaming everything on her is going to help? Oh yeah, and could you open this elevator for me? Thanks.

Pfft. Yeah right. Next they're going to tell me that I really won't go crosseyed from sitting too close to the TV, or that my face really won't stick if I keep making it!

Yeah there were definitely a few points where I felt he was being a total dick for no reason, and it didn't really fit even if he is supposed to be the "ruthlessly ambitious" type. Like, "I don't need him, he's a SPOUSE!" If he didn't really care why would he be so happy about it?

I was thinking, "wow, Nedry has a much better computer now!"

Oh definitely. He's also going to have more than one (making him the only Alpha that has more than one).
