I still need to see these along with Body of Lies and Black Hawk Down. Good stuff?
Also I think Black Reign is underrated. I mean it's not amazing or anything, but I dug it and the cityscape scenery is pretty similar to Blade Runner at times.

Yeah. It was actually pretty compelling until they started introducing a bunch of plot points, most of which did nothing for the film, really.
They should have left out Weyland and his daughter entirely and dumped any subplots relating to them. The "Weyland Corp has an undefined ulterior motive" thing would have been sufficient, as it worked in most every other Alien film.

Damn that's a good one, yeah the film would've been quite a bit better without that junk. Vickers was so freaking awful. No idea why the entire movie tried to make you care about her, she had WAY too much focus.
