This is just a list of my media consumption. I've projected into the future a bit, things that I've got in my "must-see" cache. Anything already seen/read will have my star rating (1-5) following it; everything else is in the queue. This rating is based solely on my own tastes (picky when it comes to books, not so much for movies), and may not reflect individual merits the piece may have exhibited.
