Ethan Hawke Planning To Reunite With Richard... →
I read this and my first thought was that this is so great! “Before Sunrise” and “Before Sunset” are two of my favorite films of all time. Though now that it is sinking in I’m concerned about where they may go with a third. I think that the sequel ended so perfectly for what it was and what it’s suppose to be, that I just hope they don’t ruin that.

Sundance 2011
Last week, I registered to get my time slot for advance ticket purchase for the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. Don’t really think I’ll be able to go this time but here’s hoping. I had such a great time last year that I have to try. As you may know, Sundance, held primarily in Park City, Utah, is one of the world’s greatest film festivals and as it is open to the public,...

Must Watch List (Winter Film Releases)
Thank you, EW for always publishing movie calendars as a guide what is soon to hit theaters. And thank you Comcast OnDemand for your “trailers & reviews” tab so I can then proceed to watch trailers for said movies. As you can tell, I live for movies. Here’s the list of those soon to be released movies for the winter season that I’m most excited about with emphasis on all things...

Top Five: Book to Film
I’m sometimes inspired to read a book because I heard about a great upcoming film based on it or conversely, a great book that I just read inspires me to see the film. As it is always said, the book is always better. I have to definitely agree with that. Good rule of thumb for life: If you had to choose between the two, always choose the book. Many times a film can be a really horrible...

How to Make it in America (On the Set)
The other day I started thinking about all the great times I’ve had in NYC. I live in Atlanta but I love that it is my second home (don’t tell my mom that). I’m lucky that I get to go there at least five times a year on business trips. I always try to find fun things to do in the city, which isn’t hard (it is NYC afterall!). Back in April, not only did I attend the Tribeca Film Festival (my...

Film Review: Like Crazy
This weekend I headed over to one of the independent theaters in town and saw the film “Like Crazy”. I have been watching for this film to hit theaters since this year’s Sundance Film Festival. I attended this year but it wasn’t showing in the few days I was there. It was definitely on my list of films to see since it had created early buzz and ended up winning the festival’s Grand Jury prize....

Film Club Selection: Stranger Than Fiction
I like film clubs. So I decided, in conjunction with this blog, to start an online film club of sorts. You can read more about it here. The first film selection is “Stranger Than Fiction” (2006), starring Will Ferrell in a rare dramatic role. This will pretty much to give me an excuse to watch it again. In the future, I’ll will be picking films that I haven’t seen...

So, I have decided to start a blog. I’m fastly approaching 30 (the countdown has begun! Sadly, I have only a little less than three weeks left of my 20s, ya’ll). I always wanted to be one of those “cool” people that considered themselves bloggers and documented their lives and opinions out in cyberspace. So here goes. Whether or not anyone ever reads this (please, please do!), I’m excited about...
