SUMMER OF 51 FILMS! 2012! July 1-July 15

Last Summer, as part of a reply to a challenge, I watched 101 films I had never seen before in around two months. I want to write movie scripts but have missed out on a lot of classics and blockbusters over the years. It was in that moment that I decided to challenge myself to expand my pallet and discover what the big screen could do for me through DVDS, Bluray and Netflix!

Every time I watched a movie I posted a status update and once a week I posted a weekly roundup including all of the movies I had watched that week and a short blurb about each one.

This year, I decided to repeat the feat on a smaller scale by watching 51 films in the same amount of time. Unlike last year, I will be able to post my review blurbs on my blog (which didn't exist at the time) and share them with you.

Here are the first ten...

1. Best Worst Movie (2009). 3/5. This was a clever concept for a documentary; the star of the cult-classic Troll 2, one of the worst films ever made, decided to make a documentary about the experience of himself and his co-stars becoming some-what famous in cult-movie circles for something they had been slightly embarrassed by for decades. Some of the actors get the joke and love the film's new place in cinema history, others seemed to be confused or didn't care, and then some like the director had mixed feelings; pride that the film has touched so many but angry at the jokes. In the end, its a bittersweet affair and I would've liked to see some more introspection of why this film has become a cult-classic film and what is the appeal of such a film.

OSBTSF TUES ED. 2011 SUMMER OF 101 MOVIES 27-57

Hello friends and film addicts,

I declared the Summer of 2011 to be my "Summer of 101 Movies!". It wass my goal to watch 101 movies I have never seen or finished by the end of the summer. I decided to put myself through this rigorous challenge after an argument I had with my friend, Zach Stanifer, over the fact that I want to write movie scripts but have missed out on alot of classics and blockbusters over the years. It was in that moment that I decided to challenge myself to expand my pallet and discover what the big screen could do for me through DVDS, Bluray and instant Netflix!
