...enough about them. We know they're going to get together, despite the heat between them topping out at about 56° (Fahrenheit, sadly), but we never get vested in the romance. Eckhart's best moments are the ones in which we see Burke psyching himself up to glad-hand his fans. But problematically, even after we've seen the "real" Burke, the snake-oil salesman with the sharky grin is more convincing. So it's far more satisfying to focus on the supporting actors, the people who try their hardest to make this cutely maudlin movie bearable...
...glad that we Germans have laws that ensure values such as human rights, freedom of speech and democracy. Nazi symbols stand for the Nazi regime, thus they are hostile toward democratic values. Allowing people to draw swastikas or give the Hitler salute is not a sign of moving on but one of wilful ignorance. We have anti-Nazi legislation so that people of all generations are reminded of what fascism means.

I’m glad I came away with the win and that’s all that matters.” In Flight B, junior captain Samantha Rosekrans won her first match but fell in the quarterfinals and in the consolation draw. Rosekrans will lead a young team this season that has no seniors...
...protection slogan that most people would agree with, right? WRONG! It was actually written on a billboard in Jacksonville, Florida accompanied by a picture of an overweight woman in a bikini and the words, “Lose the Blubber; Go Vegetarian.” I’m glad to see that PETA has now been able to not only publicly humiliate fat people into becoming vegetarians, but also to really take their objectifying sexism to the next level. Not to mention, the whole advertisement doesn’t really make logical sense. Together with this kind of degradation...
