What can I say about the last couple weeks which the world hasn’t talked about already? There was the Oscars (congrats, 12 Years A Slave, while I didn’t have you to win you’re still my favourite film of last year and I’m proud you did it). I did manage the squeeze in a few other of the best picture nominees before the ceremony and while the front runners were always going to keep the spotlight throughout the show, I’m pleased that I finally caught up with these films. I still have three or so to catch up with and I will in due time.

Last week (when the blog went into complete chaos) I feel pretty horribly ill. If you didn’t catch this tweet,  because God forgive me if I don’t tweet my life, I was completely out of it for about four or so days. It was kind of sucky, but I’m over it and back to relative normalcy.

Also a couple of days ago marks my first official job offer I’ve gotten after five months of unemployment. We’ll see how it goes as I’ve yet to decide if I’m going to accept the offer, I’m sure I’ll let you all know (that’s why I have twitter)…

Anyways here’s the last two weeks of films:

BAD MILO! (2013) – I want to have more faith in Ken Marino, but that seems about right
SERPICO (1973) – Damn… how have I waited this long to watching this
OUT OF THE FURNACE (2013) – They were all making Batman jokes right?
INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS (2013) – Haven’t decided… 2nd round may feel better
THE LEGO MOVIE (2014) – An amazing interesting mess that refuses to be perfect
NEBRASKA (2013) – We love you Bruce Dern
AMERICAN HUSTLE (2013) – We love you Jennifer Lawrence even more!!!
BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR (2013) – There were lady bits…
12 O’CLOCK BOYS (2014) – Didn’t seem to add much to me, or my feeling of Baltimore
TAKING WOODSTOCK (2009) – Dear God, can we strike this movie from existence?
THIS IS ENGLAND (2006) – More to come on TUMP
BILL BURR: YOU PEOPLE ARE ALL THE SAME (2012) – Bill Burr you make me laugh too much

REWATCHED

ANCHORMAN: THE LEGEND OF RON BURGUNDY – “the voice that could make a wolverine purr”
