Want to watch The Martian .. but, do love great entertainment as would be given watching Star Wars .. I know I'll watch both ..

Kind of feeling a bit mystified over the announcement that Michael Weatherly will be leaving NCIS .. my greatest hope is that they don't KILL him off, but, that he finds Ziva and goes happily into the sunset ..
I love his character .. actually, I love ALL the characters in NCIS .. even MarK Harmon and his hair

No one seems to know if he'll be killed off.......
Apparently a vote shows that viewers think he should re-unite with Ziva

I second that

I have not seen Star Wars yet but I heard the graphics are poor CGI and it's the same storyline from another star wars episode just with a few new characters, is this true?

Keith2012 The remakes are not as good , Things the old terminator films , the remakes became more fun still , a few others . The opinion here is , none are as good or fun as the original as far as Star Wars , There is one other in the series That I really like though ,

I like the movie Lucy, with Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman, but then anything with Morgan Freeman is good

Keith, there have been some criticism of the new Star Wars movie, but not about special effects or the use of old characters.

The effects are fantastic and seamless, even in IMAC 3D. This movie uses a lot of practical effects, with special effects only as needed, so it looks more grounded (like the original three), not fantastical (like the three prequels). There's really very little CGI. They built actual battleships and sets in the middle of Abu Dhabi!

It's a sequel to Return of the Jedi so some of the characters do return, but the story is more about three new characters.

I like it better than A New Hope and Return of the Jedi, although Empire Strikes back is a better movie, imo. The major criticism of this movie has been that there are elements of it that are borrowed from A New Hope, but that's what I liked about it!

We watched Sherlock: The Abominable Bride last night, really loved it! Really looking forward to the return of their tv series.

Tarev, isn't Sherlock the best?

I *rarely* re-watch movies/shows, but I want to revisit the entire Sherlock series. I love how dense the stories are and how they're all connected. The showrunner is Steven Moffat, who has also been the showrunner for Doctor Who for a few seasons.

Btw, HBO is currently showing remastered HD versions of The Godfather I/II, with previously deleted scenes. If you can't watch tonight, they're going to shown on HBO On Demand/Go/Now as well.

I just watched for the second time today Last Vegas. Pretty funny.

PBS just showed a presentation (1-15-16) on the glass artist, Chihuly named 'Chihuly Outside' originally from 11-4-12.






They even referenced these creations at the Missouri Botanical Garden (Mobot) in St. Louis.

Wow - what stunning creations!

Just watched a wonderful movie - Bagdad Cafe...... I just love Yasmine - she doesn't say much, but her expressions, and what she does says it all for her

Hi everyone
I went to see the Chihuly exhibit in S. Florida. It was stunning.
Very organic...huge installation. There was a rowboat on a quiet lake filled to brimming with glass spheres. All of it was stunning...one vista after the other. I don't know if this is a visiting exhibit or permanent. it was a few years back.

I love glass works!

Saw tv ads for Xfiles premiere this Sunday..this I would like to see. I loved their series before

I would LOVE to see that -- I wonder if it might come to Milwaukee or somewhere that I would have a chance of getting to... must do a little research!

I would upload photos but that was the Ipad I blew up and did not backup.

Last night we watched the Pixar animation Inside Out, and I really enjoyed it.

For those waiting for the X-Files to come back tomorrow there is a behind the scenes show on channel 5 today at 3 on the East coast.
