Day 18: A Movie Featuring Your Favorite Actor
CAST AWAY (2000) Compared to yesterday’s selection, today’s was much easier. Comedic actors usually have a better chance of transitioning to dramatic roles than the other way around. Tom Hanks, in my most honest and humble opinion, is one of… Continue reading

Day 17: A Movie Featuring Your Favorite Actress
GALAXY QUEST (1999) I don’t really have a favorite actress, but I do have favorite actors. (Does that make me sexest?) Anyway, I’ve always enjoyed watching Sigourney Weaver in almost everything she does, so I picked a film that she… Continue reading

Day 16: A Movie You Wish Had A Sequel
SILVERADO (1985) This is like a 50/50 tie with today’s selection. I would just as much wish this title had a sequel as much as I’m very glad there isn’t one. We all know how sequels go and 90% of… Continue reading

Day 15: A Movie You Could Watch Over And Over Again
THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (1993) This was a hard choice, but only because there are several movies that I like to watch over and over again. My wife and I revisit some of the same films many times a year, and… Continue reading

Day 14: A Movie That Best Describes You
THE APARTMENT (1960) This was very hard to pick. I’ve never been asked to pick a movie that describes me, let alone define me. At first I was going to pick Dirty Harry, but I’m no so sure how that… Continue reading

Day 13: A Movie That No One Would Expect You To Love
THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY (1995) This film is the perfect example of DAY 13’s selection. Everyone knows that I love Clint Eastwood, but most don’t know about this. While some find the film incredibly boring and/or slow (and others… Continue reading

Cinematic Junk Food
It is with great apprehension that I broach this subject matter. I usually reserved it for very close friends and family members where the teasing, laughing and pointing of fingers is kept to a minimum (most of the time). Just… Continue reading

Day 12: A Movie That Is A Guilty Pleasure
ROCKY II – V For all intents and purposes, any Rocky movie that’s followed by a roman numeral quickly degrades its predecessor: the original Oscar-winning film Rocky. Unfortunately, sometimes I end up going through all of the movies within a… Continue reading

Day 11: A Good Movie With An Actor You Really Hate
RAISING ARIZONA (1987) It’s really hard for me to hate anyone. They’re harsh words. But if I have to choose, I’m going for Nicholas Cage. I don’t really hate the man, but I can’t stand that he seems to have… Continue reading

Day 10: A Movie From The Director You Hate The Most
THE ROCK (1996) This was a hard one because it didn’t state whether you liked or disliked the movie but hated the director, so I’ve chosen a movie that I’ve enjoyed from time to time from a director that I truly can’t… Continue reading
