A page from a journal of modern experimental physics will be as mysterious to the uninitiated as a Tibetan mandala. Both are records of inquiries into the nature of the universe. -- Fritjof Capra

An elementary particle is not an independently existing, unanalyzable entity.  It is, in essence, a set of relationships that reach outward to other things. -- H.P. Stapp, twentieth century physicist

So the latest Neil Blomkamp sci-fi dystopian future film is out: Chappie . I'm really thinking Neil doesn't see a bright future for South Africa! It stars  Sharlto Copley (of course) as Chappie, Dev Patel (as the creator), Ninja (as Ninja), Yo-Landi Visser (as Yo-Landi), Jose Pablo Cantillo (as Amerika), and Hugh Jackman (as the jealous creator). What happens when a robot designed for police work in the tough streets of Johannesburg, is reprogrammed with actual artificial intelligence, but raised from "infancy" by criminals? Hi-Jinks!

Things derive their being and nature by mutual dependence and are nothing in themselves. -- Nagarjuna, second century Buddhist philosopher

I went to see the new Will Smith and Margot Robbie film, Focus . I wasn't expecting much, and was just hoping to get a few laughs to make up for using my free ticket on it. I'd heard the first half of the film was gold, and that the stars had incredible chemistry. Would this prove true?

So what do you get when you cross James Bond with Austin Powers, and subtract extraneous garbage? I give you Kingsman: The Secret Service . Equal parts action and humour, and with a bonus feature of excellent acting! Starring Colin Firth , Samuel L. Jackson , and Taron Egerton , this is setup to be the spy-flick series for the new millennium.

Form is no different from emptiness. Emptiness is no different from form. Form is precisely emptiness,      emptiness is precisely form.                              -- The Heart Sutra (excerpt)

So this is it. In Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith we finally see the fall of Anakin Skywalker and the Jedi Order, and the rise of Darth Vader and the Sith Empire. This is by far the darkest of all the films in the series, taking the crown from The Empire Strikes Back quite handily.
