"Hell of a list! Exactly the kind that make me excited about listal! Great commentary- much of it really reinforces my own opinions about a number of the films I've seen. And the rest makes me eager to"

"@Orlok- Thanks! I'd wager that you'll enjoy Drive quite a bit once you see it."
"@phillydude- there really should be a rule against entering the theater after the movie starts Agreed. I'd pay an extra buck for a "no crying infants guarantee" as well. Still have to catch up with "
"@lotr23- I couldn't be happier that you discovered Almodovar this year and that you've responded so well to his movies. :) My feelings exactly! And thanks so much for the kind compliment. I'm still "
"@MihaM- Do your best to see Hugo before it leaves theaters. It deserves to be seen on the big screen. And even shed the extra buck of two for 3D. I hate 3D as a rule, but this is the one exception. Ma"

"@Lost in Space- I have full intentions on seeing Ichi and Enter the Void one of these days. As for Requiem, well I can admire it, but I don't know if I'll ever like it. The heroin business is tough fo"
"Ouch. One lonely 8/10 and the rest 7/10. I've never considered your personal rating method to be particularly stingy. (And indeed, there isn't a film on here I've awarded higher- of those we've both s"
