I grew up in the era of American Girl, Power Rangers, and Backstreet Boys, and while, like any child in the 90s who indulged in one or more of these things, I still loved an older time. While my friends were watching Beethoven, I was in love with Nick and Nora Charles' dog Asta.
Now in my twenties, my tastes have become more advanced and broader, expanding from Nick and Nora to Bette Davis films, slapstick comedies, and well pretty much anything I can get my hands on. My parents, enjoy the 1930 & 1940s and are more than happy to watch an occasional few via Netflix, but they also want to watch the newest film in theater, needless to say they don't want to sit around a table discussing them like Robert Osborne. That's where We Have The Stars comes in (a quote from Bette Davis' film Now, Voyager) to discuss what others lose interest in soon after the DVD is removed.
Despite my love for classics, I do enjoy modern films as well, they are tomorrow's classics after all. (Some of them are actually pretty good.) Thus I incorporate newer films as well. movie blogs are devised to express thoughts on film and I suppose we can give Johnny Depp and Meryl Streep a fair turn too.
As for reviews (listed in the tab next door) I am by no means professional, I don't review the technical aspect, but rather my general thoughts and experience while watching said film, such as watching Ben Hur in the theater for the first time or the cheesetasticness of The Man in the Iron Mask.
In closing, this is a little part of the blogosphere to share my thoughts on movies, and whatever else that may entail.

"It's important right now that we talk, killer to killer."
Unlike Addison DeWitt I would not like to talk killer to killer but rather as movie lover to movie lover. What do you think?
