Movies in 2007 that I can't wait to see
Was just over at /Film reading Peter Sciretta's post on The Definitive Top 25 Movies of 2007, where he combines the top movie lists from Rotten Tomato and IMDB to form a sort-of list where critics and mainstream moviegoers meet middle ground. I don't agree with everything on the list, but it definitely made me realize how many movies I'm missing out on while I'm stuck in Singapore! Damn it, this is extremely bad for someone who used to watch 2-3 movies at the cinema every week and another 2-3 DVDs weekly from Netflix.
