Films
Total New Films Seen: 2
Films Reviewed: 0

• Star Trek (2009)
• Terminator Salvation (2009)

Films currently in production that I'm most excited about:

• The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009)
• The Time Traveler's Wife (2009)
• Alice in Wonderland (2010)
• Remember Me (2010)

Film of the Month: Thirteen (2003).

Summary/Opinion: I'm going to start keeping a record of how many films I watch a month. I watch a lot of films each day - and that's no exaggeration. I'm a self-confessed film buff, am obsessed with the film/studio industry, so what better way to get out what's on my mind about it than on here? Just to clarify, I know I didn't do any Star Trek or Terminator reviews this month so let me just say, I loved Star Trek; Terminator Salvation was a big disappointment.

Personal

I said a heartfelt goodbye to my Cardiff house at the end of June so that I could move back in with my parents for a short while. It's been 3 days and I miss my friends and boyfriend already. *sigh* But at least I have my books, films, and interweb to keep me happy. :-)

(Bubyeee to the gorgeous cat next door that would wake us up every morning with his very, very loud Meows to be let inside).
