Fall/Winter 2010 Movie Recap

2010 is OVER! And that means that my Fall/Winter 2010 Top 5 Movie list must come down to make room for the new list.

I went to the movies a LOT this past season. Thankfully the movie schedule for the next few months is pretty lax until this summer. Then May hits and it's like movies every single weekend.

There are FIVE comic book movies this summer. Count them FIVE: Thor, Captain America, X-Men
