Well, I liked 300 no matter what this guy says.

Good example of why I don’t like reviewers most times. Click here for an unfavorable review of “300”. This is the kind of guy who salivates all over “boring – narcissistic – overly – costumed – judy – dench – … Continue reading

Curious George hits puberty?
