Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Today we're going to continue our look back at 2012--it certainly had a lot of good movies, didn't it? Tonight we'll have a review of a movie that made basically all of our editors' lists, and it will be the first post by our writer Mike2D2! The article was originally just a series of beeps, blips, and whistles, but fortunately our protocol droid was able to convert it into Standard English (a Bocce translation will follow soon). Enjoy!

We'll begin with Paul's argument
Good Evening! Tonight we'll continue looking back at 2012 with a review by Djake ("The D's silent," he assured me). This movie also made our group's Top 12 list, even though it came out in the final week of 2012. It's also currently leading our Readers' Poll of The Best Movies of 2012, which you should be sure to participate in by going here. Anyhow, without further ado, here's the review:
Djake: I knew I would love Django Unchained as soon as I heard Quentin Tarantino was making a "Southern"
We watched this movie last weekend because it was on my "List of Books, Movies, and Music to Check Out." I really do have a list like that, but the trouble is that until just recently, I'd only write names of new recommendations, but never who recommended it to me or why they did so.
