Finally, after 20 years, Starship Troopers isnt banned in Germany anymore. That Blu-Ray-Steelbook was rather fast in my collection

I've discovered what the Camelot disc is and now I'm wondering why more musicians don't arrange their albums and concert setlists that way. Seems like they'd flow a lot better and be easier to move from one song to another.

So Dunkirk is definitely top three Nolan for me.

People don't want to admit it but deer can be invasive species. There's a good reason you're not supposed to feed them.

Doing a bit of dog sitting tonight.  It's nice

I'm planning on re-watching This Is The End with my friends on Saturday. Forgot how gut-bustingingly funny that film was. Especially Danny McBride.

It has a great soundtrack, a few decent action scenes and hey two hot women making out but overall Atomic Blonde is pretty shitty

I can't wait. Joel Edgerton as an alien that resembles a "syphilitic navy seal" ='s sold.

I just started reading Ready Player One (finished The Disaster Artist last night too - What a story, Mark!). Loooooooord I'm mixed on this one, and I'm only 3 chapters (4 if you include the prologue) into the book. This is a really cool world, and the Oasis seems like a fun place to be. However, y'all really weren't exaggerating with the pop culture references  The footnotes in the prologue were obnoxious as hell, and Chapter 3 was excruciating to read.

So the charges against me and my friends on academic plagiarism were dropped by the Academic Integrity Panel, and we were found not guilty of those. However, we were found guilty of "collusion" (ie working too closely on an assignment) so if will count as a first infraction on our academic record. However, the instructor was also told that they must change their course outline for next semester, more accurately detailing the line that must be crossed before something is sent to an academic panel, as the committee chair does not believe that it was presented to students clearly enough.

 

However, I am a little afraid. I don't know if this means that the teacher is now mad or doesn't like me, and because I have to take their class next semester since it is required, I'm worried that they are going to try and give us a second infraction for no reason. Like actively look for a word or two that may be similar between my work and someone else's, even though I vow to do all my work alone from now on at home.

 

My question is, should I make sure I always take pictures of myself doing my work in case this happens? Will it happen? And if it truly is for no reason (like I am taken in frontline of a panel again despite having done all my work on my own) will I be able to defend myself? Or will having one infraction hurt my credibility and the teacher can do or say whatever they want?

But the real question is, arent there only three Nolan movies worth seeing?

Ready Player One seems like a cool movie idea visually, but the plotline sounds like a snooze if I were reading it in a novel.
