One of last year’s best movies and the only George Clooney film I can watch without wanting to punch his smug face arrives on DVD/Blu-ray tomorrow; UP IN THE AIR.  Why is this important?  Well as I said, it’s one of the best.  Jason Reitman‘s previous works that also fall under “best of that said year” include: Thank You For Smoking and Juno.

Up in the Air was a movie I didn’t see until late in the year, so when I feel bad about situations like that I tend to come back and do cheap plugs such as this to help Citizens like yourself find it if by chance you passed it up.  With great writing and strong performances (and several Oscar noms) to look forward to you will not soon regret checking this one out.  Here is a scene:

Raise your hand if you have a masturbation mirror.

Tarantino admitted that he has yet to Avatar, The Lovely Bones or Invictus, and that he needs to revisit films like Bright Star and District 9, so they might have the power to make the list.  I like him, but he’s an easy target.  I need to bring him down to my level of greatness.  NOTE: CoF’s annual “Movies you should have seen in (insert year)” is coming soon.  Three of his eight made the list.  Dammit.
