Wow, all the Two Buck Schmuck columns at my fingertips?

Yes. Yes, they are.

MOVIE REVIEWS
========================================
January 16th, 2011 - The Social Network
I have no idea what happened in this review. I went batshit crazy.

November 24th, 2009 - Couples Retreat
As soon as I recover from how bad this movie was, I'll think of something amusing to put here.

November 19th, 2009 - Law Abiding Citizen
What did it take me to get me back to the LaGrange? Apparently, a shirtless Gerard Butler.

June 19th, 2009 - Obsessed
Beyoncé punches marital difficulties in the throat.

May 15th, 2009 - Adventureland
Contrary to popular belief, it is not a cinematic adaptation of the Atari 2600 game Adventure.

November 26th, 2008 - Eagle Eye
What's that smell? Oh, it's this movie.

October 28th, 2008 - Righteous Kill

Get Stupid is more like it. AM I RIGHT, PEOPLE?!!

June 27, 2008 - Iron Man
Director Jon Favreau evokes my irrational, bitchy wrath by his mere existence.

June 16, 2008 - 88 Minutes
Al Pacino hits another one out of the park. And by out of the park, I mean a foul ball that kills a stray kitten.

April 30, 2008 - The Bank Job
Not to be confused with The Italian Job or The Bank Dick.

April 12, 2008 - Juno

The Book Of Secrets, As Seen In A Crappy Movie

February 21, 2008 - The Golden Compass
I'm suffocating from all the whimsy!

January 31, 2008 - The Darjeeling Limited
It's cute, it's precious, it's altogether wretched.

November 21, 2007 - Halloween (2007) with addendum
Look Helen, there's a seven foot tall man wearing a mask and covered in blood, holding a big knife and walking down the street. Do you think we should call someone?

November 13th, 2007 - The Brave One
Jodie Foster's boring as hell and she's not going to take it anymore.

October 28th, 2007 - The Bourne Ultimatum
Most likely, this is the only review of the latest Bourne movie that starts with a magic wall guarded by a geezer and a star falling from the sky.

October 18th, 2007 - Death Sentence
Watch out, Kevin Bacon is gettin' MAD!

October 7th, 2007 - Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix
The magic of sitting in an uncomfortable seat for 2+ hours.

A main course of vomiting pod people, followed by a small dessert of CGI robots with attitude.

September 19th, 2007 - Live Free Or Die Hard
Do you think Bruce Willis will save the day? Do we dare to dream?

September 12th, 2007 - 1408
The fear of sharing a hotel room with John Cusack for an hour and a half.

August 28th, 2007 - Ocean's Thirteen
Some superstitious people view the number 13 with dread, which now makes perfect sense to me.

Life imitates art, as the Schmuck is violently pelted with cherries.

Introductions, declaration of purpose, Mark Wahlberg shooting people in the head.
