Colossus was surprisingly good, thanks.

Unthinkable - consequentialism examined with unflinching honesty.

I assume you mean the extended version? I wouldn't have described the original this way, but the one additional scene makes a difference.

Yep, the one I've seen is the extended version. It's hard to say what I would have thought of the original cut, but this is one movie that took me somewhere I wasn't expecting, pretty much all along - I'm not sure the final scene made all or even much of the difference.

They just released the Iron Sky theatrical trailer. I'm having high hopes for this movie - with Space Nazis From The Moon, you can't go very wrong. And it looks awesome, too.
