yellowonesdontstop: Dzhokar Tsarnaev (also spelled as Djohar Tsarnaev), the current suspect at large in Watertown (right, above) taken from his supposed Russian FB page via The Atlantic Wire. His FB page (not 100% confirmed as Tsarnaev’s actual page, though it certainly appears to be based on information available) identifies his Beliefs as Islam and his Personal Priority as “Career and Money.” To all the Boston area Tumblrs, please, please stay safe. Our hearts and prayers are with you.

moviepassinc: REVIEW: ‘Oblivion’ | by Bill Arceneaux I have great affection for David Lynch’s Dune. It’s a movie that barely explains itself, but keeps throwing stuff at you anyways. Sure, The Original Star Wars Trilogy didn’t feel the need to spell everything out either, but it would at least establish and ground things to make the audience comfortable. Dune,on the other hand, expects you to have done some reading beforehand. Despite that problem, I really dig the flick. It’s a classic sci-fi adventure with a weirdo modern (at the time) edge. It has a real “you just had to be there to understand” feel to it, and, knowing that I can never go back and “understand”, makes melove it even more. (CLICK HERE TO READ MORE) - moviepass
