I do not go to movies very often. I do not like to have people all around me, in a dark, enclosed place. But I like movies.

Collecting items of interest relating to Movies.

Apparently Issac Asimov's Foundation series is slated to become a movie, at some point. Maybe. (I'm being facetious because I think they've been talking about this since the '70s.) [nyt] Line to note: "Release date for the film was not announced."

And here is a list of the 20 most-anticipated sci-fi movies of 2011, according to Sci Fi Wire.

I've always been interested in micronations, and this Canadian documentary looks interesting: How to Start Your Own Country. And that leads nicely into this ListVerse item for the Top 10 Bizarre Micronations.

And if you love Canadian punk music, you should check out Bloodied but Unbowed, the punk movie. And the site has lots of photos and video features that are not in the movie, with more being added every so often.

Here are the Top 10 Brilliant Movie Recuts, as according to ListVerse.
