I feel sorry for Aston Villa


Arsenal were lucky to beat Aston Villa.  Last season they did the double over us.  They could have made it three wins in a row but they missed a great chance. The second chance was kept out by an amazing save.  

I have had discussions about who is the best in goal for Arsenal. I think I lost that debate yesterday. 

Luck is important in football, but a team cannot rely on it throughout the entire season. 

Aliens


For many years, I have considered this to be the second best in the franchise. So far, that view stands. 

I can only think of two major issues. One is the approach to Acheron (LV-426). In the original the setting was lit in a more realistic manner. In this film, there was what appeared to be a nebula in the background and the ship was lit more as a result.  The other issue was when the face-hugger as destroyed as no acid came out.

The film did meet the odd stereotype, but kept the suspense up until the alien is encountered. A down side of watching this on streaming is that some good bits have been cut out, but despite that, this was worth watching again.
