I'm amazed that so many people spend good money on garbage like that.

Part Two at Dulles Airport is pretty good. After that yeah they go downhill.

Prior to DH5, that was my least favorite in the series. I'd rank them:

Die Hard - 10
Die Harder - 3
DH With a Vengence - 6
Live Free or DH - 7
A Good Day to DH - 0

Some movies are so bad, theyre "good," because you can watch them and make fun of them, play drinking games, etc. DH5 doesnt even have that going for it.

I hope Die Hard doesn't end on a note like this...

Another good music documentary- Searching for Sugar Man.

Watched Skyfall and flight today. Both were pretty good IMO

I saw Olympus Has Fallen. Definitely fit the bill for action. Very well done had some applause moments from the crowd and also several on the edge of the seat ones as well. I would also say that mostly you could believe what seemed like an unbelievable plotline.

Broke out fight club and Amadeus for a long flight. Both are old but really enjoyed them anyway.

Have Lincoln and this is 40 on tap for flights next week.

Lincoln was long and zero action and all political talking.

This is 40 is sad more than funny.

Watched the brass teapot last night. I would give it 3 out of 5 stars. Has an interesting premise, however the characters fell a little flat at times.

Never heard of it. Django comes out on DVD next Tuesday. I recommend you buy it. It was one of the best films I saw last year.

Wound up getting it tonight on iTunes. Really good. I saw some behind the scenes where the actors were talking about how after most of the lines they would just apologize to fox. Really surprised at Samuel L. Didn't expect that role from him.

If you want to watch something fascinating, late at night after drinking, check out a doc on Netflix called "jiro dreams of sushi". It's a doc about the best grand master in the world, who runs a sushi place in a subway station in underground Japan. Meals start at $300. It's a fascinating doc.
