Just cause I haven't posted in awhile

So saw "rise of the planet of the apes" recently and I have to say it was pretty good!

Great acting, nice(ish) soundtrack, and great tip of the hats to the original Planet of the apes!
Keeping to the plot lines and such (tho I think Battle for the planet of the apes would say that "Caesar" was the son of apes gone back in time but we WILL ignore that paradox)

For sure go and see Rise of the planet of the apes and enjoy it even if you haven't seen another ape movie in your life (you'll like it)

Torchwood

So the new season of Torchwood is sweet...
I'd say it's already better than children of the earth
What is torchwood you ask?
Well torchwood is the BBC spin off series of Doctor who... in fact it's an anagram of Doctor who... (pretty sweet right)
It's centered around Captain Jack Harkness who we met in Season 1 of the new doctor who series...
Rose accidentally made him immortal and then the 51st century man got accidentally put in the 1800's where he lived till the 21st century...
He took Torchwood ( created by the queen of england to stop and protect Britain from aliens) when it got decimated by the cybermen dalek battle (where rose got stuck in the other universe)
Rebuilt it and then it ran for 3 seasons and now it's in it's 4th season...
I couldn't deal as much with the first season due to bbc3's explicitness... however 3 was a serial (like 4 is now) and it was really good without the dumb stuff...
There you go a review and overview on torchwood...
Watch season 4 (you will be okay without watching previous stuff fyi)!
