In other news, "The Martian" was great. Highly faithful adaptation of the book. I even read some possible Oscar buzz the other day. One would imagine the Academy would love the chance to nominate a popular mass-market movie that isn't taken from a comic book.

Was just given a copy of the book. Which should I do first, in your opinion?

Oh, I'd say the book, for the additional parts cut out of the movie if nothing else. But it doesn't really matter.

Really enjoyed it as well.

I know that this point has been driven into the ground but as someone with an engineering background it was pretty nerdgasm inducing.

Well that's a cast.

Coen Brothers always seem to net a great cast, since all of the big stars want to be in one of their movies and are probably worth taking a bit less to be in one.

Sometimes I think Hollywood needs to be destroyed:

As Hans Gruber, his brother Simon and several other super villains can attest, it is hard to kill NYPD cop John McClane, despite that underwhelming last film. Fox is making a deal for Live Free Or Die Hard helmer Len Wiseman to return and develop with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura a sixth installment of Die Hard, the venerable action series that overnight transformed Bruce Willis from a TV to a movie star back in 1988. All of this is early, but they are referring to this as Die Hard Year One and I’m told that Wiseman and di Bonaventura are now looking for a screenwriter to script a reinvention of the venerable action series, one that is sort of a prequel while still leaving room for Willis to play McClane as well. Basically, he’ll bookend a story line that will be set much of the action in 1979, when McClane was a cop in gritty New York City and showing how he became a die hard kind of guy.

Just read about the long-rumored crossover that is now set for a 2020 release, Godzilla vs King Kong. What is Kong gonna do, hit Godzillas foot with a coconut tree?
