I don't see why not. Really, the Snowden story made Spender's crew look like a bunch of amateurs by comparison, but a lot of the technological surveillance stuff they talked about in the original show has since come true. I'm sure Carter could do some sort of weird and wonderful take on that.

Gerrard apologises to everyone apart from the player he assaulted. Classy. I must say though, hearing the challenge described as "a stamping action" made me laugh. As if you'd punch someone and then say, "No, I didn't punch you. It was a punching action towards your face."

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Here's the first image of Jesse Eisenberg as Luthor. I think I get what they're going for, he'll probably play a blunter and more realistic villain, as opposed to Hackman and Spacey's 'larger than life' approach. Whether it'll work or not, I suppose we'll just have to see.

The X-Files
I want to believe... ...that it'll be good. Getting this particular band back together is going to demand outstanding storylines and scripts, which I'd like to think Chris Carter has already spent years crafting. I just hope they don't get too bogged down in the 'mythology' of the show. The central premise was about as 90s as you can get, and our conspiracy theories these days (demented though many of them are) tend to deal with un-supernatural phenomena. Hopefully, they milk enough out of paranoia at the government to be topical for six episodes, and focus on the more character-driven stuff.

Football
It was a far cry from the utter shambles of last week and for once, the players' efforts couldn't be faulted, but it's another defeat. Fortunately the teams below us lost so we haven't slipped into the bottom three, and the performance gave me some hope that we can keep it that way. Bring on the Mags. Loved the poor and ridiculously biased commentary from the Sky Sports crew, though. Larsson overhits a cross in the first half - "that's so poor from Seb Larsson", Aaron Cresswell overhits one in the second half from a virtually identical position - "that's unlucky, I wonder if it bobbled as he tried to kick it?".

Heck of a win over a decent Besiktas side who earlier this year impressed against Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool from the Greatest League In The World™. Belgian Pro League > English Premier League? I see Fiorentina stuffed Roma as well, which presumably means Serie A is better than Serie A.

After Mesut Özil was actually really good last night, I thought the usual pathetic sniping from the press might subside a little this morning. No such luck. There genuinely seems to be a campaign against him at the moment, and it's getting unbelievably tiresome.

Last movie you saw...
It's been years since I last saw the first Matrix all the way through. I'd be interested to watch it again, just to see how well it stands up today. No plans to watch the others anytime soon though, the thrill of the original was always in its set pieces and aside from one or two sequences (Reloaded at least had the cool demon twins and the brilliant highway chase scene going for it), the sequels forgot that.
