Roland Emmerich plans to reboot 'Stargate' as a film trilogy
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, good. Because there's not enough Stargate in the world.

The first movie was pretty perfect, Do Not TOUCH! And I was not a fan of the TV show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If it's good, I don't care that there are tons of hours preceding it. It's not like I'd have said "you know what, these past five seasons have been good, this next season will have been good, but please stop telling me stories based on a premise I enjoy--too much!"
And if they suck I will either not consume, or I will take glee in eviscerating. It's like I can't not win...

So has anyone see The Europa Report yet? It's playing at the brewpub theater this afternoon, and I'm thinking that it might be a way to escape the heat.
But not if it's awful, or if it's all hand-held camera...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yes! I saw it on Amazon Instant actually. It is creepy. I didn't care for the end of the movie, but I was engaged and interested.

Oh, creepy? I'm not in the mood for creepy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think it is properly categorized as a science fiction "thriller" - but there isn't a lot of gore. There is slowly increasing dread.
at least from my perspective. Not sure if the above helps you make a decision. I thought the movie raised some interesting questions about Europa. But it didn't really leave a lasting impression. I didn't think about it for days/years afterward like say "Alien" or "Terminator."
The movie is familiar in scope and tropes.

All I know about Europa Report is mr. flea showed the kids the trailer and it freaked Dillo out so hard he literally had a hysterical crying fit and they called me at work (like I could do anything over the phone!) and he went to bed with his sister in my bed with ALL his stuffed animals.
But you may be less sensitive than a 7 year old boy.
