Just in case, you know, you care at all

Re: Just in case, you know, you care at all

I'm still here. It's okay if you haven't seen E.T., but I really think it's worth a look. E.T. was one of the films I was referring to when I told Spielberg that it shaped my childhood. I think everyone in that classroom would have to agree. To be honest, I haven't seen a handful of popular films either. I didn't grow up on Star Wars, or Pulp Fiction for that matter, so my classmates were shocked that I hadn't seen some very popular films.

I appreciate you guys reading the blog, for those that did. It really isn't self-promotion. I don't get paid everytime you click it or anything. I just go to school and study film and try to put some of my work in writing. I just think some people would be interested in some of the things I have to say. It's a slow time right now because of school, but I often go to some special events that may interest readers. If not, oh well.

Mister One-Way...
Why don't you post reviews for films in the Film forum (paste part of your reviews from blog) and link to the blog for the remainder of the review. That would direct some traffic to your blog.

The forumers who are regulars here, but don't frequently check your blog would be notified that you've posted a new review.

I feel like people think of me as "that douchebag who thinks he knows more about movies than others" and by posting lengthy reviews and articles, or some blog posts that clearly take some time to put together, they'll just ignore them and assume I'm being arrogant.

Good idea, though. I'll do so next time.

I've never detected that sort of sentiment. If anyone has that opinion, even they might be curious what you thought of a particular movie.

Glad you're planning on doing it. It's not much more work than you're already doing. Just pasting the beginning of a review you already wrote for the blog.

FYI, I do think he is arrogant!

yeah one way, I've been pretty inactive too as of late, but I see no reason why you shouldn't post your movie reviews. I also want to catch up.

Yeah, I'm going to start doing so. I posted up a paragraph of my latest entry, Nine Troubles. It's not so much of a review of Nine, but a sort of discussion. If you guys are interested, I'll also post any other entries which don't have to do with films I've seen. For example, I spent two days with Atom Egoyan recently when he visited my school, and had a great discussion with him, and it might prove interesting for some of you, especially since he also spoke about Armenia and the Diaspora.

Oh, come now. I'm not so bad.
