I believe Russian Ark is up on Netflix at the moment. I think I have it in my queue but haven't watched it, yet.

It's an absolutely wonderful film.

Finland is not part of Scandinavia.

What? Yes it is, you knucklehead.

We definitely need more mainstream female directors.

This is really cool of Fox to do this. 

[BadAtGender]

Yeah. I'm glad to see a studio taking a proactive stance. I hope some good comes of it.

Female directors can be just as successful as male directors, so I hope so well as well.

How is it compared to the other Transformers movies? Seen them all

TF4 is action on an entirely new scale and the smaller number of autobots allows you to get to know and care for them. I had far more emotions in TF4 then the previous 3 combined. The plot doesn't make a lot of sense, but the movie really flows well and doesn't lag anywhere. All the characters are well done except Petz and the humor isn't grotesque, it's actually funny. It's on par with the first for me.

19, can't get tipsy lol

Since when has that ever stopped someone before?

Not sure if EOT can hit 100 now

... Finland isn't Scandinavia?

From what I have been taught (and what you find in most encyclopaedias, at least in the languages I know), Scandinavia is Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Some add Iceland and the Faroe Islands, because they speak related North Germanic languages which all descend from Old Norse. Finland has a completely different language, so is normally not included. The term which encompasses Scandinavia + Finland + Greenland is Nordic Countries (hence the Nordic, rather than Scandinavian, Council).Including Finland within Scandinavia is here regarded as one of the most common basic mistakes, the one in which the Geography teacher will usually test you. I have met many people from the Scandinavian kingdoms and all seemed to agree on this definition.

Huh, guess I didn't know that. Thanks.

Geography class. I may have just had a bad teacher though.
