    Yeah I don't know what happened there with that audio glitch, but nice and exciting moment nonetheless.

    Wtf is going on? This opening sucks. Too much going on at once, not enough focus on anything. Turrible and just wtf.

    It looks like Kenneth Branagh is the big industrialist boss. Since Mitt Romney is in town they should've offered him that job. ;)
