Since Terry Gilliam was the famousest alum of my college (up until recently), we pretty much had Mandatory Gilliam Studies. Fiona's diss would've fit right in.

My annoyance with the 2012 previews was the inability of the airplane pilot to find the climb controls so they can get above all the collapsing buildings.
That, and...Santa Monica Airport! Why are they flying back inland? (and the plane engines wouldn't be able to handle the amount of debris in the air, and...Not My Movie.)
So I'm going to buy
Space Trek
or
Star Schwinn
or whatever it's called today. Should I care about Abrahms' commentary? Because I'm tempted to just download it from iTunes.
Star Schwinn
I read that as "Star Schwing" and laughed and laughed.

That's the version with the Kirk commentary.
DH reviewed the DVD yesterday and he lists all the extras - [link]
Bonus Features: It couldn’t have been easy relaunching a massive franchise like Star Trek, but Abrams and his core creative team sound like they had a blast, at least judging from the lively commentary track that accompanies the feature. The cast and crew are equally enthusiastic and upbeat in the myriad featurettes included on the second disc, which cover such topics as the casting process, the special effects and the design of the new Enterprise. There are also 12 deleted scenes, two of which go a long way to clearing up the film’s biggest mystery-what exactly did the bad guy do while hanging around in the middle of deep space for 25 years?
Huh. I just saw the DVD for $20. On iTunes it's $14.99 ($19.99 for HD). (I was thinking it'd be $10 on iTunes.) There are extras in the iTunes version (two featurettes, international trailers, art and a "secret code that unlocks additional content").
So I think I'll grab the DVD from the grocery store....

Three days til Team Jacob!!!
Oh, does that come out this weekend? I haven't seen any ads for it on TV. I remember seeing ads for the first one a lot.

And, see, I hardly watch TV at all, and I've seen a lot of ads for it. Maybe they're targeting me. Maybe they're beaming the ads STRAIGHT TO MY TV!
Those aren't on TV, Tep, they're being broadcast directly into your brain.
Oh, have we all read about the group of vampires in Atlanta protesting the inaccurate portrayal of vampires in TV and film?
