January 6, 2012 Weekend (2011) Guh. I was setting myself to be heartbroken, but it ended on a hopeful note. It was such a nice, soft journey. Like a hug. Where the fuck were you with this lgbt suggestion, Netflix?

Retreat (2011)
★★★★☆
They really clowned these guys by not releasing it in theater. It was good! It took you down so many paths you didn’t expect. It kept me guessing and had me glued to the screen that Jamie Bell’s ears inhabited.

Midnight in Paris (2011)
★★★☆☆
In short, it was a delightful film. But really, I just need to book a flight to Paris now.

Hostel, Pt. III (2011)
★★☆☆☆
Really, though, it could have been worse. (This is what I continue telling myself now that it is over.) I hated the direction they took it in, and it was just… meh. How many fake outs did we need before we saw their true fate? I was also uncomfortable realizing that Kip Pardue actually aged and would not forever be Victor from Rules of Attraction.
Additionally: lol John Hensley

Blue Hawaii (1961)
★★☆☆☆
Okay, it started off with a lot of charm and great visuals. Then, well, things just dropped off. Maybe my full attention was not put on it, but it began dragging. Elvis remained beautiful throughout, I may add.

Stuart: A Life Backwards (2007)
★★★★☆
A fantastic way to start this movie project. Tom Hardy was so incredible to watch and the relationship between him and Cumberbatch warmed my cold heart. I didn’t want it to end, and especially not with the events it closed with. Warm my heart and then slash it to bits.
