Super impressive list...you better never have kids or this hobby will take a serious backseat. Living and loving it vicariously thru you. THANK YOU SENSEI!

GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL IS ONLY A SOLID.

Who are you?

Fabulous, as per usual. Sad to see Dumb & Dumber To all the way down there, but sequels are rarely good (unless of course it's the Before series!).

Curious, are LEGO and Boyhood tied as your favorites? I also would like to know what made these flicks so great. Another blog post, please.

Also, when are you going to be an Oscar judge?

And are you going to the cheese party tomorrow?

I saw 14 of these! That's AMAZING.

My favorite was maybe a tie between Under the Skin and Boyhood.

Jared's was Fury, which I haven't seen yet
