That would be Die Hard 5. Everyone’s favorite disaster cop, John McClane, and the film that became its own genre are back!

Apologies for sparse posting, but I am buried with work (as in real paying work), and I don’t see myself coming up for air for a while. Saw Cloud Atlas over the weekend, which I was thoroughly prepared to hate. Only I didn’t. And I hate when that happens. I still don’t know what I think about what I think I saw. Tried to put my thoughts together about the film’s various determinisms and depictions of “freedom,” but got hung up, so I gave up. Will try and put up a review eventually, but I may have to see it again. And I don’t know when that’s going to happen.

Otherwise, we’re battening down the hatches here in Delmarva, awaiting Sandy. Here’s hoping the lights, and the roof, stay on.
