Midway - loved the combat scenes, esp. the ships. Enjoyed the period correct AA guns on the US and Japanese ships. The emphasis on intelligence was also well done.
We always laughed when Combat Handguns magazine had the "Ultimate Snubby" on the cover,

Can you tell me where the registrar's office is at, asshole?
ETA: I did watch a little more of this while I was eating my leftover smoked wings from www.company7bbq.com. The wings were really good...
Season 11 of Archer is a real return to form. We're five episodes in and having a lot of fun with it.

Lawless on Netflix. I'd seen it before, but didn't remember a lot about it. Darn good movie. It's a period piece, and the sets were awesome. I enjoyed watching the background for period signs and stuff. You also get to see a lot of Jessica Chastain. A LOT!! Kinda surprised to see that much of such a big star.
"Borgen" on Netflix. Danish drama (series) revolving around the government and the office of the first female Prime Minister. Halfway through the first season and it's a pretty good show about the wheeling and dealing of the political set and the media.
There's nothing civil about this war.
"Human Nature" on Netflix. It's a documentary on genetic engineering. It focuses on CRISPER (Clustered Regularly Interspaced short Palindromic Repeats) and the Cas9 protein.
The genie is out of the bottle. Governments and boards can have all the meetings and issue all the decrees they want, China and/or Russia will make genetically modified soldiers with enhanced strength, stamina, and without fear or pain. Put a fork in it, it's a done deal They WILL DO IT. China has already made modifications to germline cells in twin girls.
IF it were possible to stop super soldiers by sacrificing the end of cancer, it might be a talk worth having. But we cant. We WILL see super soldiers from Russia/China/Some third world toilet with at few smart guys. So why not at least get the benefit of ending debilitating genetic disease?
In the second episode of "Peaky Blinders," the Pikers (Gypsies) leave a cartridge as a declaration of war. It looked to me like a half length .45ACP. Does anybody know what it was?
