Saturday night movies

We kicked back and watched a few movies yesterday.  I have to say...even though I am a die hard sci-fi fan, Skyline was pretty lame-o.  Another disappointing alien movie for me.  Still in the lead for best Alien flick in recent years?  Gigi and I are in agreement.  District 9.  If you're one of the few that haven't seen that movie...GET ON IT already! 


We also watched the original 1982 movie Tron.  The new one comes out next weekend.  Gigi had not seen the original and it's been years since I've watched the old one too.  I loved it's total cheesy sci-fi self.  Gigi had that sort of blank stare happening but is still game for the new 3D version in the theatre. *s*

Possible meteor lights up the skies in northern Alberta

I was watching TV tonight and I saw the sky light up for quite some time. I was puzzled because it reminded me alot of what sheet lightning does. I knew though, that it was too cold for lightening but I wouldn't have thought it was a meteor! We'll have to wait and see where it touched down and if there's anything left of it. That would be interesting. Check out the article from the Edmonton Sun online.
