I dunno. Mindless CGI and action scenes?

I'm not going to say that it doesn't look awesome, because it does (and anything that has Christopher Eccleston in it, with a cravat and waistcoat definitely scores points with me what do you mean I'm being biased here), but man if it doesn't look like Elektra, and I've never seen Elektra.

But just... action scene after action scene. I know they do this to sell. And these are 'action' figures. But I'd have much more faith in the movie if they weren't bandying 'FROM THE DIRECTOR OF THE MUMMY' around. ... As if the directing in The Mummy was any good. I mean, I like the movie, but I'm aware it isn't a good movie, you know?

Much rather looking forward to CE's part in the Amelia Earhart movie. Even if it's a smaller part. Why's he choosing crazy and shoddily written action movie adaptations anyway? I sincerely hope it's because a) he needs money or b) he's trying to get some recognition.

Needless to say, I'm betting he's the only thing worthwhile in G.I. Joe.

In other news: I'm sick and I'm addicted to Fringe. Not necessarily because it's good, but because this whole John Scott thing intrigues me. Am I the only person who ships John/Olivia anyway? I don't see anything wrong with this relationship. ... Other than he's dead, he lied to her and he's the part of some insane conspiracy. But man, he's cool and he totally loved Olivia. That said, I dunno what my issue is with the writing. Maybe it's the fact that I dont' feel like anything important ever happens. And mostly things are done for squick factor. ... That pregnancy thing in Episode 2 was squick enough. SQUICK ENOUGH. *shudder*

So how is everyone? Going on okay?
