Dimitra and I hit the Blockbuster pre-viewed sale rack.

I came out with:
- Rescue Dawn, an epic film about a troubled guy in a crisis, directed by a German auteur.
- Eastern Promises, an epic film about a troubled Russian guy in a crisis, directed by a Canadian auteur.
- The Wind That Shakes the Barley, an epic historical film about a troubled Irish guy in a crisis, directed by a UK auteur.

And the three leading men? Christian Bale, Viggo Mortensen and Cillian Murphy.

I'm so not predictable.

Also, we went to Niagara Falls yesterday. (ETA: It was my first time seeing the Falls) Photo under the cut )

Oh, Heroes.

It's nice to know that some things don't change. I stopped watching after a few episodes last season, but I bravely came back to see what the season 3 opener had to offer. I'm so glad I did (and that a friend suggested we watch together). I'd forgotten what a fun show it is to watch with someone.

It's all the same! Mama Petrelli still kicks ass (and how!), Nathan's assumptions that he's an autonomous individual will constantly be crushed (always someone pulling the strings!), Ali Larter plays characters I don't care about (but does a good job!)... and so on, and so forth. Even though it's totally the Petrelli Family Variety Hour.

Minor, minor spoilers )
