For a few years now, I've been writing mini reports on the books I read throughout the year and publishing them on my personal FaceBook page; three volumes a year. The thought recently struck me (ouch!) that it might be interesting to do that for the movies I watch, too. But holy farnsworth! What with streaming Netflix and my insatiable hunger for popcorn, that would be a LOT of movies. I'd have to publish way more often and write recaps that are way shorter...
The Count of Monte Cristo - Unjustly-jailed sailor pretends to be dead to get out of prison, and pretends to be nobility to get revenge.
The Wizard of Oz - Illegal immigrant kills one sister, then joins with three strangers to kill the other.
No Country For Old Men - Psycho guy in need of a new hairstyle kills people while on trail of a ton of cash. Totally ineffective Sheriff Tommy Lee Jones retires.
Zootopia - Snarky cartoon animals run around and do stuff. Only memorable scene was the sloths in the DMV, which was in the film's trailer, so why did I bother to watch this?
Finding Nemo - Neurotic cartoon fish finds Nemo.
Finding Dory - Neurotic cartoon fish finds Dory. Dory finds her parents. Pixar finds a cash cow.
Bourne Identity - Amnesiac wreaks havoc. Some spy-types have hissy-fits.
Avatar - Dances With Wolves meets Ferngully.
Titanic - Frustrated wife gets naked for sketch artist. Also, a boat sinks.
Million Dollar Baby - Female Rocky, with Clint Eastwood as Burgess Meredith.
Rocky - Male Million Dollar Baby with...yeah, you get it.
