I saw Ted recently. Only because DirecTV had a free HBO weekend.
I feel like it was just rejected Family Guy jokes that weren't funny enough for American Dad and The Cleveland Show... (which is like not being pretty enough to work at Denny's)
Awful.

I saw Dallas Buyers Club. Last weekend, I think.

Everyone said it was way better than the previous one.
They were right.

In Bruges. Dark and funny, definitely worth to watch.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Possibly the only Colin Farrell movie I enjoyed. I can't think of another at this moment.

Really? That film justified all my misgivings of Abrams when I heard he'd be the new face of Star Trek.
It was just OK until they started to make it into the Wrath of Khan and got all the details weird.
In Bruges....now that was a good movie.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

I don't know what the Wrath of Khan is, but I can guess it has something to do with the character of the same name. I don't really know much about Star Trek, nor have I seen any of the TV series, so my outsider perspective is probably different than someone who is at least somewhat invested in the series*.

He was a leader of a group of super soldier created in the 1990's but they all were cryogenically frozen a shot into space after the war because they thought themselves to be better than humanity, and tried to take over. Kirk finds them in the orginal episode 'space seed.' Where they have a serious almost deadly confrontation, and ends with Kahn and his army being talked into settling into an uninhabited garden paradise, where they are left for 15 years.. Turns out to be quite the hell hole. So begins Star Trek 2 the wrath of Kahn...
If you have net flixs you have to watch those two Star Trek events... Then watch how Abrams paid tribute, it's breath taking. The scenes have a much deeper meaning than what is on the surface.
