Apocalypse postponed

Stacker Pentecost: Today, at the edge of our hope, at the end of our time, we have chosen not only to believe in ourselves, but in each other. Today we face the monsters that are at our door, today we are canceling the apocalypse!

One of the advantages of having a twelve year old at your disposal is that you can go and see movies featuring characters with names like Stacker Pentecost that are about Giant Friggin' Robots Fighting Monsters. And so it came to pass that we took in Pacific Rim at the Odeon yesterday.

I also noticed, for the first time, that there is a bar menu in the cinema, so it looks like the pub crawl after The World's End next Saturday will kick off in situ.

The apocalypse is not cancelled after all, it is merely postponed for a week.
