    Thanks for the link love. I have one more Orson Welles film to see that I'm going to watch next week. Then I'm going to focus on films related to my next Blind Spot assignment.

    The Wizard of Oz is one of your favorite movies? How awesome are you? ;-) I get a lot of grief because of my love for that movie. Ha ha.

    Great round-up of blogger posts! And thanks for the link.

      @Quirky BookandFilmBuff: There's no shame in loving Wizard of Oz :)
      Though I have mixed feelings about Oz: The Great and Powerful (2013), which will be out soon.

      By the way, I figured out the design issues on my blog, and I think it overall looks a lot cleaner now. I've removed most of the clutter on the sidebar, and changed the template.

    @Shep. Burman: You're welcome, and likewise, thanks for link, which I did know about, but maybe some of my readers are not aware of, and would like to enter.

    I still have not seen a bunch of my most anticipated 2012 films(I go by IMDb year): Frances Ha, Liberal Arts, Zero Dark Thirty, The Hunt, Safety Not Guaranteed, Laurence Anyways, Sister, John Dies At The End, & Compliance. Also some docs: Stories We Tell, Room 237, West of Memphis, 56 Up.
    They all have top 10 list potential in my case, so I really can't do my best list yet. Even though I'd like to :)
