M&Ms (Or When I Can't Think of Anything Original to Write About)

It's been a while since I posted anything on here, though I've gone much longer in between posts before. Even so, I'm sure y'all are upset at the lack of new content on Rowrbazzle. I'm sure by now most of you have reread my previous posts so many times you could recite them from memory. Unfortunately, this post probably won't really do much to assuage your Rowrbazzle withdrawals, as yours truly is serving only as a conduit of content.

Here's a absurdly funny (I hope that description doesn't get your hopes up too high) anecdote about M&Ms.

Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels...

Enjoy.

Alternative Sources

I suppose it's possible that some of you might not get anything out of the list I made earlier, being as some of you have different tastes in movies than I. However, you might get more out of a different list. In light of that, here are two additional movie lists from two quality movie reviewers. You're welcome.

From the Balcony
Guys named Bill Clark can be found at various places on this here internet and a couple of them are even the same Bill Clark who runs From the Balcony. Bill's perspective is probably similar to most movie watchers. He doesn't review movies for a living and doesn't have time to see every movie released. Consequently, Bill's Top 10 list consists mainly of movies that tend to be more mainstream (not that Bill doesn't appreciate quality smaller films). If you're looking for good movies that you've actually heard of, here's a good place to look. He's also been so kind as to share a Bottom 10 list. If a movie you were thinking about renting shows up on that list, you might want to think again. Even though he's never been published on rogerebert.com, Bill's website is still worth a look. Bill appreciates the brilliance that is Tom Wilkinson and that's reason enough to read him.

Roger Ebert
Everyone knows Roger Ebert. He's the preeminent film critic in the US so it's not suprising that he has the be-all and end-all of movie lists. He provides a traditional Top 10, along with a host of additional movies that he finds worthy of a mention. As much as I try to see a variety of films, I've got nothing on Ebert. He doesn't see everything, but he sees more movies than any other reviewer out there. If you're looking for high-quality movies that range from major studio productions to the smallest indie films, this list is a great resource.

Okay, I've now provided you with three sources of information for finding great movies. Being as most of the films on these lists can be found on DVD it should be very easy for you to see them. So go ahead and add them to you NetFlix queue now and you can enjoy them without ever having to leave your home. Again, you're welcome.
