"Life's better with company. Everyone needs a co-pilot."- Ryan Bingham (Up In The Air) Up In The Air was another movie I was not expecting to enjoy but ended up learning a lot from.

"Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk."- Tony Stark (Iron Man) I don't consider myself a huge Marvel fan, but I have watched most of the movies over the years. I remember not being the biggest fan of Iron Man at first, but the movie eventually started to grow on me. The movie itself …
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."- Ian Malcolm (Jurassic Park) This is probably one of the most important and significant movies ever made.

"Listen, if you really wanna do this with your life you have to believe you're necessary and you are."- Will Emerson (Margin Call) I enjoyed this movie, but I have to warn you, this one might not be for everybody.
