Life sucks sometimes. Period. We all need an escape. Is it any wonder why a girl will sit in front of a television screen, watch The Notebook and pig out on ice cream when she gets dumped? Or how about, when guys get together and pop in scrubs and watch it for hours on end? Movies, books, and television allow us to escape, to feel, to wonder.
I love all of these things (books most recently). I love how a good book can make you think differently, how a great movie can help you appreciate what you are seeing just a little more, and how a favorite TV show can capture a culture.
I would love to turn this passion into a career someday (directing, editing, writing, whatever) but for now I will keep it as an amazing hobby. In this blog, I will review movies, books, and sometimes give you a smidgen of my life. The movies/books that I review may or may not be current; it just depends on when I see them.
Each movie will have a star rating attached to it. I have decided on a 6 star system. Why? Well, because I think nowadays 5 stars are being given out way too often, so I have reserved the 6th star for the truly unique. It is just like the 5 star system we know and love, so forget about the 6th star until/if it shows up. If you see a 6 star anything (Which will look like this - 6! Stars (out of 5)), don’t hesitate, go out and see it/read it!
My first review will be coming up and it will be the latest installment of James Bond. That’s right, Quantum of Solace. Also be on the lookout for Rachel Getting Married and Twilight!
Until next time…Entertain Your Soul
