When I thought about the 5 new movies coming out this week (November 20th, 2009), I just could not stop thinking about a movie coming out with a very much loved, sparkly vampire. Of course, I am putting that movie at number one. Until then, you have to start at Red Cliff and read your way down. PS, the other movies on my list are also great…
