Quick Side Note: The Incredibles is the afterlife’s version of SWEET come down to this plane! James Bond meets Superheroes meets Pixar meets a PG rating meets Pure Energy. See it…post haste!

It’s that time again! The end of my personal movie viewing season, so I gotta give y’all the true juice. I didn’t make it up to the ole’ Cedar Lee as much as I have in the past, but was still able to find a good number of 4 and 3 1/2 star movies.I’ve also decide to include movies I’ve seen on video from now on, just as long as they were released during the past year’s time frame. Seeing Baadasssss! pretty much forced me into that decision. ^_^

Can I get a drumroll, please?
