I enjoyed D9, despite a lot of internal inconsistencies, nonsensical yelling, and implausible violence.
But, I also enjoyed HN more before testimonials for heavily-promoted mass-market movies -- number one at the box office last week! -- were top stories.
There's tons of such general-interest, pop-culture, pure-entertainment content out there -- even if filtered for techie/scifi tastes. (See a blog like io9, for example.) It could fill much of the front page, every day.
But I guess there's nothing to be done about it; there's 43 upvotes and counting, and it's number one on /classic too.
So I, for one, welcome our future of big-budget movie trailers, funny robot videos, and debates about 'Lost'/'BSG'/etc. Forward, to mass appeal!
