Last weekend was a free preview weekend for all the premium channels on DirecTV so I watched some of the random movies.
Transcendence - terrible movie with laughable "science"
Rio 2 - I surprisingly liked the first one but this sequel was boring with much, much worse music
Winter's Tale - not quite what I was expecting but I enjoyed it. A nice urban fantasy.
Airport '75 - I saw this movie in the theater when I was around 12 years old. It has all the hallmarks of a great '70's disaster movie - ludicrous "disaster", a lot of screaming and carrying on, blatent sexual harrassment of the female characters and Charlton Heston. Airplane! borrowed a lot from this movie so playing "spot the influence" is fun too.
