Dear Peta,

If you insist on prancing around naked in objection to my meat-eating ways, then I accept your win-win situation and promise to consume more meat on the assumption that it will cause you to show more skin.

Sincerely,

Nobrainer

Battle: Los Angeles
Filed under: General — nobrainer @ 8:48 am

I only just started seeing previews for this movie within the last week. It didn’t really catch my attention too much, other than to think that a) it looked a lot like Independence Day, and b) who gives a fuck about Los Angeles? The aliens want LA? Suckers!

Ebert has a more thoughtful, though no more positive review:

“Battle: Los Angeles” is noisy, violent, ugly and stupid. Its manufacture is a reflection of appalling cynicism on the part of its makers, who don’t even try to make it more than senseless chaos. Here’s a science-fiction film that’s an insult to the words “science” and “fiction,” and the hyphen in between them. You want to cut it up to clean under your fingernails.

Heh.
