has anyone seen the movie Stealth? I just saw it today and the beginning of it looked really stupid but towards the end, it got way better.
post your comments here (or any rants of my stupid topics

The movie is completely a summer techno-action movie (by that, to the outsider - and many insiders too - it appears to have little plot, massive visual effects, cheesy lines, guy gets the girl in the end, released to theater in the summer kind of movie).  Most of that applies here but there is an interesting question posed throughout the movie that is circulating throughout the UAV world: "How autonomous do you make UAVs?"  So that brought it up a few points in my book.

Just watched the movie on DVD last night and enjoyed it.
That said, if any of the plot had happened in real life, World War 111 would have been on.  :-)

You know you're a modeler when....
a:your fingers are forever encrusted with dried paint/cured glue
b:you smell of enamel thinner, glue, and paint 24/7
c:you shed a tear when the hobby shop closes.
