AMC's Best Picture Showcase Part 1 Roundup

Every year we make the one trip to an AMC theater and sit down for almost a 24 hour period to watch their Best Picture Showcase. This year since Javi has a half marathon to go to the day after the 24 hour marathon, we decided split it up the event over two weekends. We just saw part one which included AMOUR, LES MISERABLES, ARGO, AND DJANGO UNCHAINED. Below are some of our brief thoughts.

DJANGO UNCHAINED Trailer Drops!

Check the trailer after the break.

Super Bowl: As Directed By Awesome Directors

I totally stole this from /film, but at least I'm willing to admit that I did.  Now anyone that knows me, I am the least sports-savvy fella and constantly emasculated by more sporty ladies all around me. So apart from Super Bowl commercials and trailers, which will abound in the next few days, I have zero interest in the Super Bowl, but this video had me laughing quite a bit.  Check it out below:
