Mission:

We are all on a mission. Every day, we have something to do, and we get it done. Or we don't get it done. Or we think about getting it done. Or we don't do it, nor do we think about getting it done, (wouldn't that be the life!). With that being said, I have decided to take on a simple, somewhat daunting, but ever so exciting mission. It's a mission, that for me, makes sense.

I'm somewhat educated, (aren't we all), and I've decided to put some of that tutition money to use and write about something dear to me, MOVIES! I absolutely love watching movies. Any movie, really, will do. As a Netflix subscriber, it's not a good day until you reach into that mailbox and see that beautiful red envelope screaming out, "Open Me!"

Therefore, my mission is fairly straightforward. I will watch 365 movies in 365 days and give you, the anticipated reader, the scoop on how watchable these movies actually are. I have decided to develop my very own rating scale to help out anyone who hates to read through these blogs and just wants to know what's going on. So here goes it:

If a movie is just down right amazingly mindblowing, it will receive a rating of "inconceivable". If a movie is ok, as in I-paid-money-to-watch-it-and-I-still-have-alot-of-popcorn-so-I-guess-I-will-sit-and-finish-it, it will receive a rating of "tolerable". Now I'm fairly open minded, so if a movie is so down right atrocious that I can't even sit through it, it will receive the rating of .....drumroll please...."dire".

So there you have it. For those of you who didn't read through that mess, it's fairly simple. Quick Recap: Inconceivable: Good; Tolerable: Ok; and last but not least, for the movies that are so bad that even I couldn't finish watching: DIRE.

Enjoy reading, as I enjoy watching.

  1. I just want to mention that my mother makes me watch horrible movies, as in not even B movies. Sometimes they are so low budget that I could probably film a movie in my garage that is better. So any days when my mom makes me watch a movie, I will let you know which ones you shouldn't watch. Love ya mom!

  4. Can you please start with "Drag me to Hell." Any movie that contains a scene with a goat calling a woman a "dirty whore" is simply unacceptable! :) Seriously.

  5. I definitely concur with that statement. Especially when it was a goat doing the talking. Definitely disappointing...although face-to-face with you I would disagree totally....: )
