Frosty Weekend Update

Man, it's cooold out there! Spring Break, anyone?! :)

Ok, all. Here goes with some reminders for this last weekend before our upcoming break.

**Your second Movie Review is officially due on Monday. Remember that if you choose any of the top 50 movies from the "top films" list, you'll receive 5 extra credit points.

**Next week, we'll have our first official quiz on Wednesday over all our film/literary terms that we've been working with this past number of days in class.

**Also for next week, be reminded that we'll officially be starting our "novel adaptation" assignment on Tuesday. Be prepared to bring/make a book (at least 200 pages long) selection on that day. Again, the book must have been made into a film version at some point...and a film that you'll be able to view!

I'll be updating the weekly schedule and important dates links sometime tomorrow since I don't have access to those files currently. Come back on here and check them out!

Have a good weekend, all. We'll see you soon.
