"I say we take off and nuke the entire planet from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."
No doubt. Remember that movie where they took 4 geriatric astronauts and sent them on a mission to investigate a satellite put in orbit by the Soviets? It turned out to be armed with nukes which was a clear treaty violation to keep nukes out of space. One of the geriatrics flew that satellite to the moon. The closing scene had Sinatra singing, "Fly me to the moon and let me wish upon the stars, Let me see what things are like on Jupiter and Mars." ;)

Yeah, it was "Space Cowboys," with Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, James Garner and Donald Sutherland. I like that movie, I saw it on my "borrowed" NetFlix account a few months ago.
I'm glad I don't pay for NetFlix. Rarely do they have movies that interest me, but I ran across "Sling Blade," with Billy Bob Thornton a few nights ago. That's pretty decent if not dark.
I liked the scene where the "smart" guys are trying to start a tiller and he looks at it and says, "Ain't got no gaaaas in it," in that raspy voice.
I can't believe it -- am watching S1E1 of Columbo in IMDB. Thank you, Bill D! OK, it has some obnoxious commercials so it's like watching TV except they seem less numerous. This is also true of free movies in my Vudu, tho I watched one with almost none.
A great drama starring Lyova Rosenthal alias 'Lee Grant'. The first episode was extremely grim and buttoned-up but the fun and extremely admirable Columbo character is making its way into view. But don't watch this after #1 -- same ending.
