Beware the ides of December, for they bring cinematic awesomeness straight to your eyeballs...

THE HANGOVER

TAKING WOODSTOCK

G-FORCE
Totally one-upping the last two, G-Force is a talking hamster pic with the comedic voices of Galifianakis, Arrested Development's Will Arnett and Tracy Morgan

INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS

THE HEADLESS WOMAN
Fantastic and mysterious film from Argentina.  If Yakov Smirnov was in it we could continue our current theme, but he wasn't.  Maybe for the best.

THE TUDORS Season 3
Latest season of the real housewives of Tudor England

KNOW YOUR MUSHROOMS
Never eat a poisonous mushroom again!  You know all those times you've been at a fancy dinner party and mistaken a shiitake for an Amanita Muscaria and everybody laughed and then the host punched you in the nuts?  It'll never happen again.

THE OTHER MAN
Film about a man.  No, not that man.  The other one.

PSYCHO WARD
I don't know if this film is any good or not, but the review of it on Dorkgasm.com is fantastic.
