I wholeheartedly disagree, with Kick-Ass just missing my year end Top 10 list (I believe it was on an earlier version of John's list, not sure if it made the final cut), and Super being a very solid top pick this week.Joey Magidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10465870030357008701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-153900010550729263.post-1582502895936658742011-08-09T22:11:14.490-04:002011-08-09T22:11:14.490-04:00I completely and utterly despised both Kick-Ass an...I completely and utterly despised both <i>Kick-Ass</i> and <i>Super</i>, but I think seeing Ellen Page screwing Rainn Wilson actually puts the latter film in an even lower pit of repulsiveness.Robert Hamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16541236953808315151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-153900010550729263.post-58598910678912984282011-08-09T16:40:37.003-04:002011-08-09T16:40:37.003-04:00Also, those who know my favorite films of 2011 so ...Also, those who know my favorite films of 2011 so far should have an idea which upcoming weeks I'm excited about in terms of DVD releases...Joey Magidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10465870030357008701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-153900010550729263.post-85152374798296513292011-08-09T16:40:09.324-04:002011-08-09T16:40:09.324-04:00Sorry for the delay in getting this up...Sorry for the delay in getting this up...Joey Magidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10465870030357008701noreply@blogger.com
