SPECIAL BONUS “AWARD” FOR SHITTIEST MOVIE I SAW THIS YEAR
- The Iron Lady
BONUS LIST OF MOVIES I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO WATCH:
- The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, because I already saw it in Swedish and I don’t like re-watching rapes.
- Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close, because I read the book when I was 24 and impressionable (read: dumb), and because of Sandy’s hair, and also because I don’t think manipulation should be rewarded.
- War Horse, because fuck horses, they are boring, what am I a fourteen year old girl? I could just go read all of the Throroughbred series for Christ’s sake, and also World War I was the most boring of the wars.
