dragomoth and argos!
In other news: ding dong, the bad guy of XCOM is dead. And I'm starting to think about crows again, as well as strange story settings like "what if everyone were aware in every many-world, but the mind postprocessed everything into a linear explanation?". Such thinking means, I think, that I'm getting better. I'm not all the way there, but I'm getting better...
(Oh, and I also watched Skyfall. I'll put it somewhere between Royale and Quantum of Solace. While I'm just about to go to work and thus don't have time to put in all the details, I'll just say that... I'm getting a bit tired of Joker-type villains. If you make your bad guys insane enough, they can do anything, no matter how outlandish. And the way in which a central thing - let's not spoil it - happened in the end, felt a bit too casual :) And then there's the technobabble, which could have been done more realistically without them having to compromise on the outcome they wanted. I'm not in the majority here, obviously... and I still put it above QoS :) )
