January's Movie.

Picking one movie is a damn hard thing to do. Right now I can think of at least 15 movies that I'd like to buy. Unfortunately, there can be only one. That one is....Sunshine. Danny Boyle directed this marvelous film with Alex Garland writing. They are the creative team behind 2003's (or 2002's, depending on if you live in England or not) 28 Days Later. The movie centers around a group of astronauts charged with the mission to re-ignite the dying sun using a nuclear warhead the size of Manhattan. It's moving, thought-provoking, and downright cool. It's a definite trip, and that's why it's my movie of the month. Believe me, there are several other movies that I'd like to write about, but doing so would only remind me of what I'm missing and throw me into a rage not unlike the gods of old. With that kiddies, I bid you adieu.

By the way, check out The Mars Volta's new album, The Bedlam in Goliath. It's worth every penny or keystroke that you expend buying/downloading it. DO IT NOW.

An Introduction.

For New Year's 2008, I made one hell of a resolution: to only buy one dvd a month. For most of you this would be any easy task, but for those of you that know me you'll realize this for the monumental decision that it was. Last year I bought in excess of 400 movies. I'm not kidding. A lot of them were used and only cost me a few bucks a piece, but I still spent an obscene amount of money in the end. Not this year. In this, I am going to list my picks each month for the best dvd for sale in that particular month. These will be brand new dvds only, as the amount of older dvds is innumerable and the decision-making process for that would just be staggering to deal with. Perhaps I'll work it in later, but who the hell knows. In addition to the dvds I'll put in tidbits of crap that I like or feel like talking about at the time. Once again, we'll see. Enjoy.
