Day 39: A Movie That Used To Love But Now Hate

Day 34: Favorite Movie Basted On A Television Series
THE FUGITIVE (1993) I knew that title would be a popular choice, but it’s true. In all sincerity, this is by far the best film adapted from a television series and every studio that attempts to do it since this… Continue reading

Day 33: Favorite Film Based on Actual Events Or A Real Person
ZODIAC (2007) I didn’t choose this movie because of how accurate it was to the source material and actual events. This film took pretty big liberties to make it a great narrative film, and sometimes you have to do that… Continue reading

Day 32: The Most Underrated Movie
KISS KISS BANG BANG (2005) Sometimes it’s difficult to state that a particular movie is underrated, when in all likelihood it may not actually be underrated. It’s really just a matter of opinion, especially if you have just enough film… Continue reading

Day 31: A Movie That Redefined A Genre
SCREAM (1996) At the time of this film’s initial release, I wasn’t a huge horror fan. I still am not a huge horror fan, but I do appreciate the genre and when it gets redefined. Before this film came out,… Continue reading
