Of all the things I had in my head that I could write about this morning, they went right out the window the minute I saw this headline on my homepage. It's the 100 movies you must see before you die 1990-now version! Finally, because I'm not going and renting movies from the 40s-80s. Ok, maybe one from the 80s but that would be pushing it, and it would depend on how big the hair was. I know if you're bored today you'll enjoy this list, consider it a gift from me to you on this nice tuesday morning! (Don't you hate it when you know you've seen a movie but can't remember it? That's me going through the list this morning... lol)
