So I realize that it's already half way through March 2016, and I honestly thought about just not writing this. However, my own hubris has led me to believe that, at least, a few people will end up reading this and watching a couple of the movies. So let's get down to it. Also, it takes a ton of time to do write ups for each movie, so I thought, forget it. Here's we go.
