1. Broken Flowers - Starting the new year with Jarmusch is a mixed blessing - most films will be downhill from that. But then again, There's Lolita... :shifty:

2. The Dark Knight - *****
3. Reign of Fire - *** (A pretty decent post-apocalypse film with a completely ridiculous premise and some grade-a cheese thrown in on a few occasions.)

1. Broken Flowers

I 'failed' too, about 140 in the end, but it did make me watch a helluva lot of films - something I'd never really done, I watched some classics people were shocked I hadn't seen and I found some new favourites :td:

1. Teh Lion, teh Witch and teh Wardrobe.
Men! They're all beasts!
Yeah. But isn't it wonderful?
