Official Introduction

Greetings fellow movie lovers -


I have recently decided my thoughts are important enough to be posted on-line and shared with others. How many of you have scoured Internet Movie Database (IMDB) or Flixster to read movie reviews and other top ten lists only to find the rare post that doesn't involve name calling or momma-bashing?

I visit a number of these every week and have grown tired of the increasing banter. Not to say I'm somehow better or an authority on these subjects, I would simply like to share reviews in higher plane of thinking. I'm pretty sure this is due to me recently rolling into a new decade of my life. I turned 30 this past year and have begun to recognize that the more I think I know, the less I really do.

How does this relate to movies? I'll tell you. I want this blog to be an honest source for folks who are beyond the days that EVERY movie is great and wonderful! Do you remember those days? I can. I remember leaving the theatre saying, WOW, Gremlins 2 rocked! That movie easily beat out those dumb sci-fi movies from the 60's!

Little did I know that beautiful films existed from Hammer Studios such as the Horror of Dracula (Yes, Christopher Lee did work before Star Wars and LOTR) and American Internation Pictures (AIP) such as House of Usher (Vincent Price is the king of melodrama)

Anyways, these revelations come from maturity. From maturity comes refined tastes. Having said that, my first entry is a top ten list (Really just 6) showing ways you know you've matured in your movie tastes. I love these and I'm sure those of you in my boat will love this too. Look for future posts to include current and little known movie reviews for you to read and consider whatever the season or the reason.
