I'm Back (But not in Black)

Haven't posted in a while, but I think I'm going to try to start blogging again. I've watched quite a few movies lately and I'll just try to summarize some of them quickly.

Sin City - Awesome, with a dash of Goretastic
Fight Club - Smart portrayal of modern society
The Legend of the Drunken Master - Jackie Chan is legendary, so is this movie
Reservoir Dogs - Tarantino-ish. More approachable than Pulp Fiction, but not as good.
Megamind - Fun. A lot of fun.

I'm gonna see Harry Potter sometime this week. I kind of feel like writing some sort of piece on what I like about Harry Potter, and what it means to me.

That's all for now

At least, you would until the vampires show up.

So I took a look at twenty some trailers of movies that I want to see (but haven't seen yet), and then made a list of the ten that I would choose to see based JUST on the trailer. Here we go in order:
