With that in mind, we at RT compiled a list of things we took away from 2008's cinematic slate -- and don't worry, there won't be a quiz at the end. Back to Article

on Dec 31 2008 08:50 PM I had a great year. Movie wise, gaming wise, and living wise. Or at least for a guy like me with no money worries. I plan on facing the new year in film with you. my fellow movie buffs. For better, or the more likely... worse. (Reply to this) |
on Dec 31 2008 10:51 PM I think I got ripped off. I was a normal guy who rode a motorcycle but instead of getting whisked off to some ancient temple I just wrecked the bike and ended up with a broken leg. I demand a re-write. (Reply to this) |
