  • 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

  • The Perfect Opening Scene

    While I personally believe that this is truly a matter of opinion, I have a feeling deep down in my bones that it’ll spark a heated week long debate about why I’m wrong and why ‘so-n-so’ is right. But I… Continue reading

  • Day 9: A Movie From Your Favorite Director

      JAWS (1975) Anyone who’s met me knows who my favorite director is (and probably always will be). There are another dozen directors that I could have picked, but only Steven Spielberg has been able to be more commercially successful… Continue reading
