Could someone please explain to me why it's such a big deal? A few days ago news broke that Peter Capaldi would be replacing Matt Smith as the Doctor. The blogosphere exploded. The American scratched her head in wonder.
So I finally hankered down to watch my first episode on a friend's couch last week.
I'm a movie freak. I probably get this from my parents, who have bookshelves filled to the brim with movies. Most of our collection comprises of comedies (my dad is a dedicated Jim Carrey fan), action and horror (my mom's tastes range to the Japanese variety). Also like my parents, my sister can start to quote a movie and I'll finish the rest for her, and vice versa.
As someone who spends a lot of free time at Blockbuster, I can tell you there are a lot of hidden gems that more people need to see. I've compiled a list of my favorites, but feel free to write any I've missed in the comments.
