Oh dear.
Since I recently became wedded to my wondrous wife and becaue of our subsequent honeymoon in Maui), I've been, quite sadly, neglecting to post as fervently as I once did. To make up for that, I will dump a huge pile of links in your face today, and hope you can sort through them in some meaningful way. It is a list of reviews from recent films I've seen, plus a few of those top-10 lists (and other reviews) for the website Geekscape.
Please, please leave comments.
Again, I apologize for the pile, but I assure you, each one of these articles is just dandy.
See each of you soon.
