Air Force? As a person that served in the USN, I resent that.

I wonder why noone mentioned the "war is fun" diarrhea of the 80ies and 90ies. Such as Officer and Gentleman, Top Gun and later on Spielberg's Private Ryan. Or the Pearl Harbor from the Bushy years.
These are propaganda at it's purest and rival Goebbels productions.
Um, if you thought "Saving Private Ryan" was a "war is fun" movie, you weren't paying attention. WWII veterans had flashbacks from the opening D-Day scenes because it was so realistic. One of the greats, IMO.
As far as the Matrix movies go, the second one was so bad that I refuse to watch the third.

Brian Singer left the project on his own to do "Superman Returns."

I would never disparage that pile of shit.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Any movie with Tom Cruise deserves all the disparagement it can get.

I dunno I liked last samurai. Although it was despite him rather than because of him.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
