Unexpectedly had to spend the last two days at Northwestern Hospital downtown, but at least saw a good movie: Captain America II. It's a frickin classic, maybe the best superhero movie ever made. Really strange to see Robert Redford as the bad guy, but he did a great job. Script was dark and interesting.

Definitely thumbs up from me, thumbs up from Ebert from the grave.

Growing up,I was a huge Cap fan. The 2nd Cap movie was fantastic just for that elevator scene alone!

"Before we get started,does anybody want to get off?"

A lot of great action and a very interesting story.

I'm doing better now, had a scare with two infections. It turns out I am allergic to chocolate big time. It a predisposing food for Staph because it increases production in the body of something called interleukin 10, a chemical which is thought by scientists to lower our bodies defenses against micro-organisms. The doctors got the treatment right, but not the cause, even after I told them I had broken out after eating chocolate. There was a study done by Dutch researchers in 2013 between chocolate and interleukin 10, publicized in an article from the Huffington Post that I became aware of today, which describes the link to Staph. Amazing but true. I've always been that way with chocolate, though I could never have dreamnt that I was at risk for something far worse than just pimples. Can never touch chocolate again.

Here's the article if anyone cares.

Yes the elevator scene is bad ass, loved it. Robert Redford was chilling as the bad guy. The Nazi Scientist in the computer was a cool scene.

Also liked the political aspect that the government has been taken over by a rogue outfit, which mirrors reality.

Ironic that an illness caused by chocolate is called interlaken
