In the film, Butler plays a Secret Service agent (ex-Secret Service agent) who is the rogue hero in the White House after a bunch of terrorists take the building hostage. Aaron Eckhart is there as the U.S. President and Morgan Freeman plays the kind of government guy who says stuff like, ?Abort! Abort!!? (If you?re wondering, ?Olympus? is apparently the Secret Service code word for the White House, hence the film?s title.)

Directed by Antoine Fuqua (?Training Day?), ?Olympus Has Fallen? isn?t even the only attack-on-the-White-House film this year. This summer sees the release of ?White House Down? starring Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx.

The beginning of the movie will go something like this:

* Terrorists approach a checkpoint.

* Guard A unlocks secured gate and steps out to tell terrorists that they can't be there.

* Terrorists shoot guard A.

* Guard B, hearing all the gun shots, decides to step out with his gun still holstered and exclaim: "What's going on!?".

* Terrorists shoot guard B.

* Guard C turns the corner after hearing the gun fire and exclaims: "Halt!".

* Terrorists shoot guard C.

Is it me? Or does Morgan Freeman look younger in that pic... LOL that dude is a time traveller for certain. The film looks like a up and down USA *** to be honest. Come on rednecks chant "USA..... USA.... USA"

Meanwhile over in the rest of the world..... "What....... Huh.... oh... they are at it again."

didn't the "patriotic" selling feature die out a decade ago? "When our flag falls, our nation will rise".... So it takes a flag falling for you to rise up? Does that mean you weren't up before it fell? Makes no sense. On that note though, i will watch it, looks good. :)

      VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2. Download: VidCoder 12.20 | 47.0 MB (Open Source) Download: Portable VidCoder 12.19 | 89.3 MB Link: VidCoder Home Page | Github | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary to compete against AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update bug that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
