Recently, I saw several episodes of Planet Earth on Discovery. It was originally produced by BBC. The whole filming took 5 years of several photographers and cameramen. The footage, as you expect from such a huge project, is breathtaking. Here's a sample that was voted as the viewers' favorite:

- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
- Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
- Live Free or Die Hard

Cycle of life
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A death. What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy retirement. You drink alcohol, you party, and you get ready for High School. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last 9 months floating… then you finish off as an orgasm! Amen.”
