A Year of Movies...

I should say first and foremost that I am going to be catching up for a few weeks while I post my backlog of movies I have seen this year. I hope to keep this up to date as I watch movies throughout the year. We'll see if that happens. A few guidelines that I am going with for this section of the blog:

1. I will not post about movies I catch on tv unless they are ones I have never seen before. If I run across Ghostbusters halfway through I won't post that. I would hope that all of you out there have seen it before. However, if I see something that I haven't seen before, then that will be posted.

2. Netflix is your friend. A lot of the movies I see now are through Netflix since the movie theatre is getting so expensive and there are very few movies worth going to see in the cinema.

3. I will post everything that I see that is new to me. That may be a movie that is 50 years old, but if I have never seen it before, it's on the list. I like to consider myself to be somewhat of a film snob in that I will not go see any movie with Sandra Bullock, or Sarah Jessica Parker in theatre. I am not, typically, a Romantic Comedy or Horror fan. That said, I do watch a lot of movies and many of them are trash. And just because I am not a fan of Rom-Coms or Horror doesn't mean I don't watch them from time to time just for the heck of it. The point of this blog is to encourage transparency and promote a dialogue of film and encourage the love of film. That said, you always have the option, and are encouraged, to disagree with me. Who knows, you might change my mind.
