19/25
1. For All Mankind, Al Reinert | ★★★★★ | I do not know why it has taken me so long to watch this documentary? I love the Apollo program loads, and using the astronauts' own words for narration is the most enchanting idea I've never heard. It does get a tad confusing if you aren't already familiar with the missions given the way it's edited, but overall it is a touching, beautiful piece of work. I can see why it is a part of the Criterion Collection!
2. Gravity, Alfonso Cuarón | ★★★☆☆½ | lol WOW INNER STRENGTH™. I know - I know I sound mad sarcastic, but this film was breathtakingly beautiful. It made me for sad than anxious, though. Maybe my heart is broken, hm?
3. Moonrise Kingdom, Wes Anderson | ★★★★☆ | I am sorry for who I am.
4. Her, Spike Jonze | ★★★☆☆ | I think for the first thirty or forty minutes I spent loads of time adjusting to the film concept. Once I did, I found this film to be a nice look at selfish people and their relationships. I liked this. WHY WAS LOS ANGELES HELLA WHITE, THOUGH???
5. 12 Years a Slave, Steve McQueen | ★★★★★ | I don't think I have the words to describe how much this films means to me.
6. American Hustle, David O. Russell | ☆☆☆☆☆½ | LMAO OKAY (and half star for Amy Adams' looks).
7. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Andrew Dominik | ★★★☆☆½ | Rewatch | lol this long as fuck film and title. I love it a lot.
8. Flowers in the Attic, Deborah Chow | ★★☆☆☆½ | Better than American Hustle. Mad that Lifetime played it straight.
9. Frances Ha, Noah Baumbach | ★★★★☆ | Films and television programs based in New York and other metropolitan areas need to stop being so white. That said, I kind of feel this film. I am not quite twenty-seven and I do not have my degree in anything, but it was comforting? Maybe my life isn't how I expected it to be, but I can see very much land on my feet. Film should've recognized Sophia sucked, though.
10. Mitt, Greg Whiteley | ★★☆☆☆½ | Humanizing, but I still don't see why I should care.
11. Captain America: The First Avenger, Joe Johnston | ★★★★★ | Rewatch | Listen. This is literally perfect.
12. Snowpiercer, Bong Joon-ho | ★★★★☆ | #SNOWTRAIN #BABIES
13. Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Joe and Anthony Russo | ★★★★★ | OH GOD IT WAS PERFECT. I don't know to even begin explaining.
14. The Covenant, Renny Harlin | ★★★★☆½ | Sebastian Stan got down right Shakespearean with his acting towards the end, and it was everything I could ever wish for. Cult classic.
15. What's Your Number, Mark Mylod | ★★★★★ | Here's the thing: - I don't understand how it got so many bad reviews when it is everything I look for in a romantic comedy. It was so great and perfect. Anna Faris is so cute. Chris Evans is so cute. I'm so upset. I wanna die.
16. Hot Tub Time Machine, Steve Pink | ★☆☆☆☆ | Fuck dude comedies. I may be giving it one star for Sebastian Stan. I'M A PATRIOT.
17. Push, Paul McGuigan | ★★★☆☆ | Boring but pretty.
18. Sunshine, Danny Boyle | ★★★★★ | Rewatch | "Every time i shut my eyes, it's always the same." Go to hell.
19. The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Marc Webb | ★★☆☆☆½ | There's a wonderful rom-com hidden inside this gd film and I am determined to find it.
20. Iron Man, Jon Favreau | ★★★☆☆ | Rewatch | LIKE IT WAS FUN but ok and TONY LOVES PEPPER LOVES TONY.
21. Iron Man 2, Jon Favreau | ★☆☆☆☆ | Again. TONY LOVES PEPPER LOVES TONY. TONY LOVES RHODEY LOVES TONY.
22. Iron Man 3, Shane Black | ★★★☆☆ | Seriously. These films are so weird, yo.
23. Petals on the Wind, Karen Moncrieff | ★★☆☆☆ | I'm terribly sad the last couple films won't be happening until 2015. WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU LIFETIME.
24. Top Gun, Tony Scott | ★★★★★ | Rewatch | TAKE MY BREATH AWAY.MP3
25. Mission: Impossible, Brian De Palma | ★★★★☆ | Rewatch | Action Star Tom Cruise gives me so much.

1. Sleepy Hollow, Season One | ★★☆☆☆½ | #deportichabod
2. Reign, Season One | In progress

4. Brooklyn Nine-Nine | ★★★★☆ | It is a super cute show. I'll give them that.
5. Raising Hope, Season Four | In progress
6. Teen Wolf, Season Three: Part B | ★★★☆☆ | God. Whatever. It was vastly better than 3A but it wasn't as great as the first two seasons. And it decimated my holy jawline trinity. So whatever. Just whatever. Bring on season four - begrudgingly.
7. Girls, Season Three | In progress
8. Portlandia, Season One | ★★★☆☆½ | Strangely relatable, and I don't even live in Portland.
9. Bob's Burgers, Season Two | ★★★★☆ | How delightful!
10. House of Cards, Season Two | ★★★★★ | #DEMOCRACYISSOOVERRATED
11. Broad City, Season One | ★★★★☆ | I AM SO UPSET. I ONLY HAD THIS SHOW FOR A WEEK and now it's gone. :(
12. Kings, Complete Series | ★★★★☆ | In hindsight, it was v heavy handed in a few of its metaphors, and they could've been better with Jack's gayness, but I WILL ALWAYS WISH FOR MORE. I am glad I finally finished it.
13. Political Animals, Complete Series | ★★☆☆☆ | WOW I LOVED THIS SHOW.
