Transformers (Bay, 2007)
Brazil (Gilliam, 1985)
Letters from Iwo Jima (Eastwood, 2006)
Mystic River (Eastwood, 2003)
North By Northwest (Hitchcock, 1959)
Sin City (Miller/Rodriguez, 2005)
Wag The Dog (Levinson, 1997)
The only one I wouldn't highly recommend is Transformers, which I still might recommend depending on who you are. (And a few of those, certainly, aren't for kids.) Next up for my viewing enjoyment (though not for a few days, unfortunately): Hot Fuzz, which I am pretty stoked to see. I really will try to review a few of these I just saw, and I still have a draft saved of my thoughts on Zodiac, which is another great movie. (I really need to write more, or at least finish what I start.)
Stealing some thunder here, Chris linked to this nifty little tool for picking a presidential candidate to pull for, and Jason linked to this spoiler-filled discussion thread on the Harry Potter ending, which, by the way, I thought was perfect. Book 7 surpassed all the others, in my opinion, and J.K. Rowling did herself well. Check out the link only if you're done reading or if you've never read at all, because I think it may make you want to.
