Other than the obligatory Hollywood jabs at "Evil Big Business" and "Mindless Military Run Amok", and on the whole it was a very enjoyable film. A little heavy on the "green" message, but with that particular world and the obvious direct connection to a natural neural network the plotline didn't get overbearing. Obviously the visual effects were amazing, and it makes me hopeful that a REAL version of Heinlein's "Starship Troopers" (as opposed to Verhoven's "Space Cadet 90210" version) might eventually get made.
In other news, I'm putting out the word: Star Trek Online is out, and I'm reactivating Federation Strike Fleet for the occasion. Please let mw know if you are interested and I'll send you some details.

Happy Valentine's Day all, happy President's Day tomorrow.
