REmember the past to protect the future

hello all
Recently the 4th anniversary of my grandfather dieing went bye and it brought up something. a Saying from a man wiser than me

"Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it" George Santayana Philosopher

Why am i saying this because it seems to me that as the greatest generation fades away so are the stories that they lived and as they pass next will be those of Korea then Vietnam, then gulf war one. These are stories that need to nbe told and remember so that the mistakes done will not be repeated. So if you have someone who has lived through these times or similar times hear their stories and dont let these great stories fade away let them remain so we are not doomed to repeat them.

Thor:The Dark World Blu Ray Review

hello all
Well this past week i got to see the second of marvels Phase two movie plan with the release of Marvels Thor the Dark world. And let me say i liked it alot. This movie continue thors story from the avengers and reveals alot of what happened after Thor went back to Asgard. I wont spoil anything for you all but it is a great movie and i have to say alot better than the first. Here is my beakdown:

the good
This movie answered alot of questions that had been lingering since avengers. We get to know what happened between jane and thor, what punishment did loki get, what happened when the tesseract was returned, what about some of the other realms, what about selvig and darcy these all get answered. the action is fast paced when it gets started and it also leaves alot open for a third thor movie. Loki is as evil as ever and the growth of thor from the avengers continues. Before he was a child in avenges you saw him grow up a little in this one you see him mature to something even more mature sometimes than odin. Also the secret scenes are a treat for marvel fans The extras are good espically the inside look at Captain America:The Winter Soldier and the marvel one shot all hail the king, the rest is the usual gag reel, deleted scenes, scoring the movie. But the treat for thor fans will be thor and Loki blood bothers. Which is a look inside loki and thor and their relationship and how it has evolved so far.

the bad
first for a ancient species like the asgard to not have better defenses seems a little out there during some of the scenes. Secondly odin got on my nerves a bit sometimes, also i was expecting more evil from loki

in closing
this is a good movie that has alot of replay value and alot to love about it.

9 out of ten stars
