Top Ten Movies I Will Miss While in China

I love the thought that I'll be gone for a semester.....however, I will miss some great movies....I'm pissed about it. Anyway, here are the top ten movies that I will miss while in China:

10. August Rush- Shut up, it looks good.....
9. The Assasination of Jesses James by the Coward Robert Ford- I like Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt.....and they're cowboys....
8. December Boys- Harry Potter plays a real role, this was a great book and I would like to see how it adapts on the screen.
7. Dedication- A children's book author with a nasty case of writer's block, finds hope in Mandy Moore....don't we all find hope in Mandy Moore at some point in our lives?
6. 3:10 to Yuma- Two of the best actors in Hollywood right now: Christian Bale and Russel Crowe....as cowboys....
5. Beowulf- This just looks awesome, a 1500 year old story adapted to the silver screen, it will bring out the English major in us all.
4. American Gangster- Denzel being Denzel....Russel Crowe riding on his coat tails...
3. No Country for Old Men- The Coen Brothers direct a "Fargo-esque" film, probably no woodchippers this time, but the villian carries a high-powered air gun and a silenced shotgun.....
2. Across the Universe- What's better than a pshycadelic experience based on the Beatles?
1. The Darjeeling Limited- The next film from director Wes Anderson about exploration of a foriegn land and brotherly love, hilarity ensues.....what else do I need to say? Anderson is brilliant.
