Who doesn't like movies? Who doesn't like taking cinematic adventures? Whilst we all derive different levels of enjoyment from movies, we all like watching them. Whilst we all like watching movies, we all have different tastes in movies. To some, "Armageddon" is the pinnacle of cinematic genius. To others, divergence from AFI's top 100 list would be criminal. We all have certain genres that we prefer over others, shameless guilty pleasures, nostalgic tear jerkers, mindless entertainment, and what we believe to be well-crafted cinema of the highest level.* This isn't so much an exercise in telling you what to think about a specific movie, this is an exercise in what I think about that movie and why I'm right about it.** This isn't an exercise in telling you what I think about new movies or newly viewed movies, this is an exercise in telling you what I think about every movie I watch. Whether I've seen it or not, whether it is one word or an entire thesis, I will share with you my thoughts on every movie I watch.
*I realize this above statement may be construed as false since it is apparent that not everyone has the ability to discern well-crafted cinema of the highest level from the claptrap that populates todays movie-watching experience.
**It is my experience that sarcasm rarely translates properly over the written word, despite a person or persons being familiar with the authors' sarcastic nature.
So, Bladerunner tonight? It'd be a great start.
ReplyDeleteI think that "A Car Crash" should be your first reviewed movie. ...Followed by "Pitt Pittman and the Tale of the Torched Tycoon".
