At the moment, I have no movie plans for the weekend. However, after the wealth of classic movie goodness I caught on dvd last weekend, I feel the urge to load up and keep the trend going. Any suggestions?
Of course, one of the most exciting parts of this coming weekend will be sitting down to record the next podcast…and given the amazing response I’ve had to episode five, I couldn’t be more psyched about turning on the mic for episode six. I would like to make the ‘cast a titch more interactive, so if you have any comments or questions please leave ’em in the comments section of this post or tomorrow’s post and hopefully I can work ’em into the format somehow.
It seems like every week I am following more and more blogs, which makes these weekly lists harder and harder to compile. All the same it allows me to point y’all towards more and more grade A work.
So, for your reading fulfillment I give you…
Elgringo, who is down at Sundance and sends back his review of FROZEN.
The Kid in The Front Row had a bit of a rough afternoon when he sat down to watch BROTHERS.
Watching MANHATTAN last week got me in a very Woody Allen frame of mind. As if on cue, Aiden takes a look one of his best modern films – MATCH POINT.
Found another Toronto blogger! (yes, I am in fact collecting them like hockey cards). Check out Sasha at The Final Girl Project who highlights one of my favourite movie scenes ever.
With the Oscar nominations coming up next week, Number Six has taken a timely look at reassessing the last ten Best Picture races.
Finally, The Movie Moxie is working on a project this year to finally plow through all of her owned-but-unwatched dvd’s. Does this happen to anyone else?
Enjoy!
Dude, your blog's on this list!

^^^ I saw that. Pretty exciting stuff.
Great collection of links this week too, stole a few of mine :P.
As for your podcast, I'm guessing there's no chance of me hijacking a Moon review out of you by this weekend is there? 🙂
Woohoo! Haven't been on Everybody's Talkin' in a fortnight! Thanks for the shout-out, man. Keep on keepin' on.
Thanks for the shout out Hatter! You know me, always a project on the go!
For this week's releases I'd highly recommend La Donation (playing at the Royal). Captivating and touching emotional film, and Canadian to boot!
@ MN14… I saw that – and pretty high up that list too. Wonder who at Total Film I have thank for such exposure.
@ Univarn… MOON is very high on my list, and with no screenings planned for this weekend, perhaps I'll finally pick up the dvd.
And not to spoil the suspense, but MOON ain't the movie up for discussin in episode six.
Actually, the window for that has unfortunately passed me by. Not sure if you've noticed, but if I don't see seomthing in a theatre, I don't give it a full-on review. I will write a "Doubleback" post on it when I finally see it though.
@ Aiden… Glad I could make your day. Sorry for the layover…the loop is getting increasingly wider.
@ Shannon… Given that I've got nothing to see this weekend, I just might go and catch that!
🙂
Nice selection of links. Made for some great reading 🙂
Thanks so much for the shout-out!
@ Sasha… Welcome!
@ Castor… Glad you enjoyed this week's selections. It brings me a lot of personal satisfaction to be able to point people towards other truly awesome bloggers.
@ Gringo… Anytime dude!
