        i think there is a lot more future in investing in a greener technology and it might even be a boost for the economy -- nm - Danedukenuuk Dec 19, 14:19 1
        
        i think the investment should be made, but to shut them down with no plan in place doesn't really help -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 19, 14:27

- Haven't seen either but remembered there was a lot of discussion of the first here. - the liioulu with slush Dec 19, 13:21 1

      - You have a point about Titanic, but I think True Lies, Aliens and T2 had much crisper, funnier dialogue. -- nm - Inigo Dec 19, 13:17 2
        
        Aliens had a few more writers in the mix and one known for good scripts. And True Lies had other credited writers. - the liioulu with slush Dec 19, 13:44
        
        I'll agree with Aliens and True Lies. T2 however (and I love this film)...go back and listen to John trying to converse.... - Remlik The Xmas Retailer Dec 19, 13:33
