As this year comes to an end... I decided on the spur Of the moment to share my list Of favorite films and books that I plan to watch and books to read next year.
Taking my cue from my good friends Sam Juliano and Allan Fish's over there at Wonders in the Dark...
I have decided to link back to Sam Juliano's last year list Of his favorite films from 2011... Here: Wonders in the Dark...
[Note: I plan to post Sam Juliano's list for 2012 once it's available...] Now, when it comes to Sam Juliano, Allan and their writers, I "swear" on...[just give me a Bible...lol] they have watched over a "zillion" films.[respectively,]
Below is a list Of films and books that I didn't watch and didn't read and hopefully, if things go according to plan[s] I will be able to add the following books and films to my shopping cart [aka Amazon.com...lol] next year.
[Note: For reasons only known to me I haven't watched a lot Of current films this year...Now, on the other hands I have watched tons Of classic films [mainly, because Of the classic film websites that I operate]...Therefore, in the upcoming year I plan to try and change that "over-sight." ]
Here goes links [That lead back to Wiki] to films that will be added to my films to soon pop into my dvd list and into my player...

Hi! Brian...
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome! I want to check-out the Raven too...mainly, because the blog is paying hommage to it author and Batman because Of animated series that I recently, purchased...I wasn't aware that you are a huge fan Of Batman...who I consider a complex super hero.
