One more thing for me to abandon in two weeks…
The Hell of 50 Movie Pack
An attempt to trace my journey through the many Mill Creek 50 Movie packs that I bought. Posts are very short and usually the same as mini-reviews I end up posting on the B Move Message Board and the Teleport City forums (and some is stuff written back when I was trying to do this on Teleport City, but they just didn’t work there), but I thought I’d start collecting them all together into one place.

I love those 50 packs! It takes me almost a year to watch a whole set.
Good luck with the reviews!

Are you updating this in real time? There are a lot more entries today than the last time I looked…

>> I didn’t watch my first Gamera film until college — where I learned that sidling up to a foxy young woman in a bar and saying, “I just had my first experience with Gamera, friend to all children. Perhaps you’d like to share in it with me?” isn’t really all that effective as a pick-up line.
Depends on the woman. The tragedy of my life is never meeting a man who’d say things like that to me….

Joshua: I had a bunch from previous viewings that needed to get posted, and thus the sudden flurry of activity. Things should settle down now as I work my way through films where Yul Brynner shoots people and a caveman terrorizes a fat kid on a three-wheeler.

I admire your stamina. Don’t you ever just think sometimes, “god I wish I could just watch a movie with y’know good acting and dialogue and production values”

I get to see those. It’s just no fun for me to write about them. When given a choice between expounding on the bleak beauty and meaning of No Country for Old Men or rambling on about a movie where a sass talkin’ monster truck blows up an outhouse…well, you know.

I hear you, I’ve got Halloween 5 and Dr Strangelove on my PVR, guess I know which one’s going on tonight.
