At work, putting off the photo project I should be doing. Half hour for lunch break or hour-long?

Rise of the Planet of the Apes :star3: 1/2 Dawn of the Planet of the Apes :star4: I was not expecting much but I now officially love the new incarnation of this franchise. RISE of course deals with Caesar, the superintelligent offspring of a lab chimp, the scientist (James Franco) who adopts...
