Thus Spake Russ

I’m operating on a total lack of sleep last night/this morning, so I’m not at my thinkin’est best… indeed, I’m a vitual zombie at this point.
I’ve been led to believe there have been some elections today; I hear the New Jersey governor’s race is within the margin of fraud. I suppose I could turn the TV on to a news channel to find out more… but if I get bored and fall asleep right now, my body clock will be completely hosed for the work week ahead.
I think I have an episode of Top Gear on the DVR… that’ll keep me awake for an hour. After that, we’ll see.

Quick review: 50 years advance knowledge, and the best they can do is whisper in a few kids’ ears? Aliens are major league a-holes.
1½ stars

Once again, I am underwhelmed.
I’m really trying, and I can think of only two Nicholas Cage movies — Con Air and National Treasure — that I finished without wondering how to get back those two hours of my life.
