21
Baghead
Flying on One Engine
Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay
The Toe Tactic
Wild Blue Yonder

What’s on your list?

Run Fatboy, Run was the only movie on my must see list. Which means I’m not going to be able to go to a party I was invited to in order to see it.

Other’s I’ve picked to go to:

Bulletproof Salesman
Second Skin
Full Battle Rattle
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Dance of the Dead

And I’m going to the Austin Film Society’s showings at the Hideout.

This is my first film festival so it should be interesting.

With all due respect, Run Fatboy Run will almost certainly get a theatrical release soon after SXSW. You should go to the party!

Hadn’t really thought of it that way. You’re probably right. Thanks James.

Hey, thanks Ryan. Are these films you saw back in March? I didn’t get to all of my picks, but here’s what I thought of My Effortless Brilliance: http://www.torontoscreenshots.com/2008/03/03/my-effortless-brilliance/
