Last Minute Tipps für den Gabentisch
Here are a few last-minute tips (not only) for the nerd gift table:
The Killer - David Baldacci
'Leon the Professional' meets 'Homeland'. The assassin Will Robie, who kills on behalf of the US government, develops scruples in the contract killing of a single US civil servant. A killer with a conscience against a cold system without one. Thrilling.
Words For Pictures - Brian Michael Bendis
How do you write a comic? Brian Michael Bendis finally answers this interesting question in this excellent book....
Boyhood
A film shot over eleven years that portrays the growth of a boy into a man. Ingenious work by Richard Linklater.
True Detective
The dark, year-long journey of two police officers on the trail of a serial killer in Louisiana. Absolutely recommendable.

The Martian - Andy Weir
Robinson Crusoe' meets 'Gravity'. Realistic and, despite the dreary subject, amusing and exciting, Andy Weir tells the story of astronaut Mark Watney, who, believed dead by his crew, is left alone on Mars.
Discussed in the podcast Appel & Ei #16
Guardians Of The Galaxy
A talking tree and a raccoon and a hero who prefers to shake a leg instead of his fists. Space opera with an absolute fun factor.

The Lego Movie
For me the most surprising film of the year. Not hollow like a Lego brick, but colourful, creative and touching.
Awesome Mix Volume I.
The name of the music from the film 'Guardians Of The Galaxy' says it all. Awesome indeed.
Until the other day - Volker Pispers
It's sad but true that you have to get the most important information about German politics from cabaret by now. Best vaccine (sic!) against Pegida.
