We know how it is: You’d like to go to the movies this weekend, but you’re gonna be busy escaping the end of the world. But you can have a multiplex-like experience at home with a collection of the right DVDs. And when someone asks you on Monday, “Hey, did you see 2012 this weekend?” … more…

obsession: Doctor Who (I keep buying new DVDs of the old show; see more after the jump) boyfriend: Paul Gross in Eastwick (see more after the jump) psyched: The Men Who Stare at Goats (George Clooney as a psychic warrior, and Ewan McGregor as anything? I’m so there; also, see more after the jump) girl … more…
