    But Alien wouldn't have been as successful if it had the dialog and characters of Prometheus. All the elements still have to work together, otherwise it would only be as good as its weakest link.

    - Only two Hi-Fi stores left in Antwerp city, but they are not the kind of stores you can freely roam around, so I don't bother with them.
     
    - No more Hi-Fi shows around here. I used to love those but Hi-Fi is kinda dead in Belgium (everything is internet now).
     
    - I once had bookshelves by B&W but I sold them again because the mids were too silky sounding. I like a more neutral presentation. Mids is where everything happens.
     

     
    These were the B&W speakers I had. Yes, they were bullet proof.

    Most of Thor's titles can be used to make a case for the OP, IMO.

    There's a difference between not saying everything is shit, and saying everything, even shit, is "great".

    I was more a fan of The Gemini Man, because he had that watch.

    The guy who recently made Logan seems to be a better fit for an Indiana Jones movie than the guy who recently made Ready Player One.

    Which is difficult for me to relate to but fortunately there's also drama to be found in the simple fact that Regan is still the daughter of a mother. It's not just some monster that needs to be killed. The film never forgets the human element.

    Bucky grabbing that bike while turning it in mid-air stood out for me for some reason. When action turns into beautiful motion, it's then when I take notice. 
     

     
     
     
     
     
    And yes, The Raid 1 & 2 are crazy!

    Of course, I would rather prefer this Yamaha, but I have to be realistic.

     
    Love the VU meters and the flippy power switch.
