  • The Other Boleyn Girl - Don't see it. The only thing they got right about the entire movie was the names of the characters. It was BAD.
  • The Queen - Very good! I love Helen Mirren. Very well acted and well written. Loved it.
  • Billy Elliot - I watched this on Netflix and I seriously needed subtitles for the first 15 minutes or so but after that, it was possibly one of the best movies I've seen.
  • The Pianist - So good. So depressing but so good. Adrien Brody is amazing in it.
  • Spice World - Not a great movie but it brought back a lot of memories.
  • White Christmas - An all time favorite. We always watch it on Christmas Eve, over and over again. love this movie...
  • The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo - Very good adaptation. There were a couple of things that they changed from the book, and a few of those didn't make sense as to why they did change them, but it was still really good. Great cast, and of course great story.
  • Despicable Me - Adorable! One of the many movies I got for Christmas that I've just gotten around to watching again. Super cute.
  • The Princess Bride - Seriously, who doesn't like this movie?
  • The Searchers - For my Film History Pt.2 class. It was good! I love John Wayne and I love John Ford so definitely a good time. It kinda rambled for a while but that's what Ford's movies do, sometimes.
  • Monsters, INC. - Love! It's such a great movie. Only realized watching it this time around, the first time in 3 or 4 years, that it was about alternative fuel sources. WTG me...Still a great movie though.
  • True Grit (2010) - It was really good! I want to see the original but I'm going to wait a while because I'm pretty Westerned out right now.
  • Wall E - It's so adorable! I love Pixar and the fact that they can tell a story and convey emotion with the main character saying only a handful of words. Awesome.
  • Tron: Legacy - Predictable plot but OMG it was gorgeous to watch. And of course I loved the Daft Punk cameo. Over all, pretty good.
  • The Replacements - This is one of those "So bad it's good" movies. It makes me happy when I watch it. It's also possibly Keanu Reeves' best acting ever.
  • Kind Hearts and Coronets - For my film history class. I actually liked it! It was pretty good. A little long but it was amusing at least.
  • Hot Fuzz - Still one of my favorites. I love watching it with other TCOM people because we sat there the entire time going "OMG DID YOU JUST SEE THAT!?" Or "OMG I LOVE THAT SWIPE!" Because we're nerds...
  • UP - It's Pixar. Of course I love it.
  • Trainspotting - This was a different movie. It was odd and I don't know how I feel about not really having a main character learn a lesson. Except not to do heroine.
  • My Neighbor Totoro - I had never seen it and it was cute. There is no real plot but Totoro is adorable enough to make up for it.
  • State of the Union - For film history. It was okay but the ending drug on for EVER.
  • Pixar Shorts Collection Vol. 1 - All very cute! I loved it. And the history of the Pixar shorts was also very neat to watch.
  • Kinky Boots - Such a great feel good movie. It does exactly what you expect, it makes you feel good. I liked it a lot!
  • About a Boy - Very good. I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was.
  • The Girl Who Played With Fire - Besides making cuts because cuts had to be made, it stayed pretty truthful to the book. I do wonder if everyone in Sweden drives a Volvo though...
  • Pirate Radio - OMG IT WAS SO GOOD! Definitely a current favorite. It was awesome.
  • The Third Man - Orson Wells is amazing. Good movie. I enjoyed it. (For film history)
  • Notting Hill - Meh. Hugh Grant should've left the bitch. She had no redeeming qualities.
  • After Sex - Very meh. YPF is so much better...
  • The Harry Potter series 1, 3-6. My copy of 2 isn't working for some reason. Enjoyable as always!
  • Catch 22 - For film history. It was interesting. Easier to understand than the book. I liked it although there were some parts that should've been cut because they were superfluous.
