Top 15 Films of the 2010s (so far)

Top 15 Films of the 2010s (so far)


Apparently we are over halfway through the 2010s. And every time a decade is over, it's a big time for movies, it's time to look back on the best of the last decade, and compare the decade to others in terms of film. Even though it isn't the end of the decade, it is half way done. A good milestone to look back on what is the best so far (as per my opinion) for this decade.

And this list idea comes from brilliant Alex Withrow, the author behind the phenomenal blog And so it Begins. So special thanks to him, go check out his blog.

2015 Oscar Reactions

2015 Oscar Reactions

Well another year down. I legitimately enjoyed most of the Oscars this year. They did a pretty good job and got some categories right...but of course they also got some wrong. This post I'm just going to ramble about what I liked and didn't like about the 2015 Oscars. So let's get started!

2014 Oscar Predictions

Oscar Predictions

In here I'll go through the oscar nominations and select which one I think will win. I've seen almost everything, but I haven't seen quite everything for the performances, so part of the selection is just word of mouth and what I've read on them. This post also includes what I like to call my "Pretty Please" list. Every year I like to make two lists, my actual Oscar predictions and a list for what I want to win. Often times, they aren't remotely similar, which is a little saddening, but what are you going to do. So this list is both my actual predictions and the Pretty Please list.

Top 10 Favorite Films of 2014

Top 10 Favorite Films of 2014

2014 was a great year for film. It was really my first year to fully explore the films of the year and be allowed to. Since I turned 17, I  allowed to go to the theaters and watch R-rated movies I previously would have needed an adult to get me in. And I gotta say, I enjoyed this year in film, a good one to start and not be hindered by restrictions (I also got a car! I can drive to the theaters as well!). Below are my 10 favorites movies of last year. Not a lot of blockbusters, but again I was free to explore other types of films that previously just wasn't possible.

Foxcatcher Review

Foxcatcher Review



What I'm about to say should speak very highly of this film. Whenever I watch Goodfellas right before anything, that anything that comes after seems really awful in comparison. I watched Foxcatcher a few days ago after showing by brother Goodfellas for the first time. In hindsight, I should probably never do that again for any film, but Foxcatcher still managed to be one of my favorite films of last year despite having a handicap that I placed on it.

Badass Movie Moment: Heat Armored Car

Badass Movie Moment: The Armored Car


Heat is by far one of my favorite films of all time. I love everything about it, from the loud to the quiet scenes, from the night to the day, from the acting to the sound, everything. Where the scene I'm going to talk about here is not my absolute favorite in the film, the title of this series idea is Badass Movie Moment. And that's what this scene is, badass.

An Apology, and Some Changes

Allow me to say I'm sorry. I know I haven't been a good blogger for quite a while, I haven't posted in about 2 months. One thing I will say in my defence, college and scholarship applications have been due and have spent the last two months of my life working on them (God, they really are awful). So there's going to be some changes. I have (finally) made my New Year's Resolution, and that is to take better care of this blog. From now on I will be posting at least twice a week. I may create some series for the blog (I had a good idea yesterday), and plan to be more interactive.
