Poll: What End Of The Year Release Are You Looking Forward To The Most?
My roommate and I have this system wherein every weekend (we started in September) through the end of the year has a notecard and on each notecard we write the movies that are opening (well, the ones we are interested in, anyways). When we see one we initial it, when we’ve both seen the film we cross it out.
I want to know what films y’all are interested in seeing!
