Ridley Scott has an impressive pedigree (Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator, etc), and it seemed like he swung for the fences on this one trying to make another 2001.

Walked out of the theater after 3 hours and said "***,O"? Took a lot of after-show processing to make any heads or tails of it.

Tons of plot holes... not sure if they were intended or not. Special effects were great, though.

Default lost luggage story

My wife flew to VPS Tuesday on a rev ticket. Checked her bag which got lost. She called & picked it up the next day. No big deal. Then tonight the bag delivery guy calls says he has my wife's bag. I tell him she picked it up from the airport Wed morning. He delivers the bag to her has her open it because it's tagged with her name & claim check number. The bag guy is trying to find out who the bag belongs to. This is the OMG part. She opens the bag & it's full of classified documents stamped SECRET. What kind of a dumb@$$ checks classified?

I saw it. Twice, in fact. Great layover movie - granted, it's not an Academy Award winner, but I liked the premise behind the plot, and the computer graphic stuff was great.

As an added bonus, I picked up a great line for my initial briefing to my f/o's:

"I'm not here to make friends. I'm here to make money. You got that, mate?"

So far, kind of a lukewarm reception on that one.

Simple solution.

Claim the bag, send it to Buzzpat, demand royalty payments.
