Media Bender

It's always this time of year that my "past movie year" gets it's title. First semester of college, I didn't watch much. But then the library got a completely new building, where media got it's own floor, and--I was gone ^_^. I've been through a Romance Year, Sci-Fi/Fantasy year, and Coming of Age Dramas. Last year was my Television Series year: M*A*S*H, Bewitched, Chuck, House, Supernatural, Gossip Girl, TVD, you name it, I probably watched it. This past year(2011), I went on an "oldie bender". Part of this is because I happen to have Turner Classic Movies on my cable this year.  And my current obsessions are Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney. And I've always liked Mickey Rooney. So below I have complied a list of what I think are the greatest oldies of all time.
