Genre of Hidden Gems Pt. 1 Underrated Adventures

Today marks the beginning of my first and probably not last Theme Month. Just to shake things up around here and keep me interested I’m going to spend an entire month on a misunderstood subset of movies. Before we begin I want to make it clear that I am 100% serious with this I really do like these movies, but I totally understand most of the hate for them, so here we go.

Disney's Live-Action Winnie The Pooh & F*ck You Too

I agree with this.

The Fun of Watching A Jerk's Life Fall Apart

Valentine’s day is a day to celebrate love, but I don’t feel much like celebrating. I personally have never been in a romantic relationship and this doesn’t seem likely to change in the near future. So instead of talking about some cheesy rom com, or melodramatic romance drama I’m going to talk about the exact opposite:

Poltergeist is Funny No Really I'm Serious

I am on a personal vendetta regarding a specific 1980’s horror movie, and I wasn’t going to discuss it this week but of course a recent trailer release for a certain reboot forced my hand. So let’s talk about Poltergeist.

It’s no secret that the movie The Exorcist is steeped in catholic symbolism. It’s a movie about a young girl, Regan, who gets possessed by a demon, and a priest, Damien, who tries to exorcise the demon. However I never really watched the movie myself in that context so I watched it again and kept notes on the obvious catholic symbolism. Here’s the most interesting stuff I found:

A Different Kind of Movie

This week I wanted to do something a little different on this blog, mostly in preparation for my first theme month…but ill clue you all in on that when we get there. Today I want to talk about interactive cinema.

Why I Hate The Hobbit

So what I want to discuss this week is the ending of a worldwide cinematic phenomenon: The Lord of the Rings. As I’m sure just about everyone who hasn’t been living under the biggest of boulders is aware, just last year the last of The Hobbit trilogy was released, but I have not gotten around to actually watching the last movie until the week before last so I have refrained from talking about this franchise in a written capacity until now.
