    I'm going to go catch it today.

    I'm split on Scott - Bladerunner was a work of flawed genius, and Blackhawk Down is still one of the most intense portrayals of modern combat. I remember when I first saw that and the scene with the helicopters just shooting up the street with the shell casings falling down just shocked me. It was at that moment I realized "Holy Shit - America is like the Empire in Star Wars. We're just overwhelming and we're a freakin' empire." Which I thought was a pretty political powerful point in a movie that was devoid of politics.

    Looking forward to Kingdom of Heaven
