Movies
So I’ve recently picked up a new iPhone (I know, right?!) and it’s just might be one of the most exciting pieces of technology I’ll ever own. I’m not going to rehash any sort of reviews you’ve probably already read or heard about, though.
No, this post will be a list of movies that I like. I don’t actually have any particular reason for doing this, but I think it’s because I’ve been watching movies a lot lately (hello there, iTunes movie rentals conveniently streamed to my iPhone). And who knows, maybe you’ll get a better idea of what I’m like. OK, on to the list.
I’m partial to art and independent films, tragicomedies, dry humor, off-beat, reflective dialogue, anything unconventional, montage-styles, slow motion shots, and of course, the auteur theory.

Maria. Sixteen. Filipina. New York. Clean freak. Liberal. Dramione. Peach yogurt.
Try Shaun of the Dead and Black Sheep, if you haven’t already. They’re both zombie films, except the former’s also a romantic comedy and the latter has zombie sheep.
