As 2005 is closing, it's time to recount the movies that mattered to me in the past year. This is, of course, an incomprehensive list as I did not watch all the movies that were released. I might see Munich before the year ends, so that may be added to the list.Batman Begins.After Joel Schumacher devastated the Batman franchise with the release of the ultra campy Batman & Robin, salvation comes

I never reviewed a trailer before, let alone a teaser trailer. But the teaser to Superman Returns is just so damn good.http://supermanreturns.warnerbros.com/trailer.htmlThe visual direction is beautiful. Since the movie is a direct continuation of the first two Superman movies (the good ones), you might recognize the imagery of Smallville and the Kryptonian crystal designs. Meanwhile, Metropolis

New York garage rockers The Strokes released the debut single of their third record, First Impressions of Earth. It's called "Juice Box," I kid you not. The title might fit some lame Euro-pop/disco one hit wonders that sells a song based on a catchy hook, preferrably also repeating the title over and over again. It won't fit this song. Why? Because this is a brilliant and unbelievably cool song.

The best space movie in years came out not too long ago. Nope, it's not Star Wars. It's a movie with a modest budget (for a sci-fi action movie) of $45 million called Serenity."Sereni-wha??" you might say. The movie might be a little obscure. It defies the norm of the contemporary action movie (no young and impossibly sexy cast, tabloid scandal fodder star, oversaturation of advertisements,
