    The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009)

    Terminator Salvation (2009)

    " Everyone wanted to see the future, but I knew that would just be big robot fights. Cool maybe, but that's a war movie, not a character investment suspenseful action movie. So here, this is what you wanted. Happy now?" — Can Magazine

    Tyson (2009)

    The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008)

    " t's really true to the tone of the 1951 original, that two people running around talking about philosophical concepts with a stranger. They are doing the talky drama." — Can Magazine

    Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married? (2007)

    " Could be the date movie of the year. Not a first date. Wait until they're already too invested to weasel out of it. Or maybe use it as a screening mechanism. Just, for God's sakes, talk about things and deal with it!" — Can Magazine
