    Default Star Trek into Darkness

    I know the US has to wait another week but it's out in the UK today anyway. So discuss and stuff. I'm hopefully off to see it this weekend. Shame about the stupid title but looking forward to it.

    I have no idea actually, we got The Avengers and Iron Man 3 a week early too.

    That's weird. Those are American movies! And doesn't the UK usually get them a long time after us?

    That is odd. It's understandable when it's for movies like Harry Potter or James Bond, but for Marvel and Star Trek movies? Someone in the UK deserves a gold star for pulling off that deal.

    Yeah, Dances With Wolves came out last week. We honestly can't wait for The Lord of the Rings, although some people have bucked the obvious trend of us being a backward country by getting it pirated on VHS.

    Disney/Pixar is always the exception, these days release dates for the big films are nearly always simultaneous or only a week or two apart in the UK and US. I remember the days when it was months between US and UK releases.

    Well that was very good. The interplay between the characters is great and unsurprisingly Cumberbatch has a whale of a time as the villain. Seeing Mickey, I mean Noel Clarke, in it briefly was weird. The pace is so breakneck at times there's not much room to breathe, but it's highly enjoyable nonetheless.

    And of course:
    (SPOILER)'Khaaaaaaannnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' The identity came as no surprise but was fun to have Spock say the line this time.
