Silver Linings Playbook: Funny Name, Serious Funny
When you look at the list of potential Oscar nominees this year, a simple romantic comedy like Silver Linings Playbook is easy to overlook.

Saint Nick: Jolly gift-delivery man, or evil cold blooded killer?

I like Christmas movies. We have our favorites that we watch every year, but I'm always on a quest to find any unseen gems. After watching Silent Night Bloody Night last night, I think I'm still must continue my quest.
Here's the story. There's this guy. He's selling this old house for super cheap because he doesn't want to worry about it anymore after he inherits it from his grandfather, but when he sends his old, ugly lawyer over there (with young, hot girlfriend in tow), it sets off a string Read more [...]
Movie Map
I recently found this awesome movie map at this site:
What do you think? Personally, I'm tempted to follow every line from start to finish, counting the number of movies I've seen and not, and substituting other movies where I thought necessary. But if I did that, I'd never get anything done... Read more [...]
