I didn’t have time to finish it before I posted my end-of-year blog, but here is my list of the movies I’m most looking forward to in 2015, and to some of you, I’m sure very few of these will be a surprise. Viva La Resistance! Brian Skutle www.sonic-cinema.com 1. “Star Wars: Episode VII- The […]

It’s that time of year again. Unfortunately, I’m still missing a lot of movies on my “have watched” that could have an effect on these, but it will be updated as we go along. In a bit of a switch, I will be adding the nominees, and my commentary, to this blog, mainly because of […]

This was a rough year for me in terms of moviewatching. If you’ve already read my end-of-2014 review, you know there’s still a lot left to see, although I’m definitely making up for lost time at the start of this year. That same lack of consistency seeped into my “weekly” series of older movie reviews, […]

Okay, so this has kind of been a lousy year for me getting to movies. I don’t like that this was the case. But between a full-time job, a relationship, needing to get stuff straightened up around the house after my father passed away last year, a decision to take some online courses towards a […]

It’s becoming a common refrain with me, and I don’t particularly care for it, “I haven’t seen it yet.” Most of the big films didn’t have that problem, but nearly all of the smaller films did. Once my everyday life changed, so did my movie habits, and life has been so ridiculously busy, playing catch-up […]

As you’ve no doubt noticed, this has been a rough year in terms of keeping up with movies. If you’ve been reading, you know why, so I’m not going to dwell on it. I do continue to find time to watch movies, and that’s the important thing, even if they aren’t always seen in a […]

I don’t know how people go to school full-time, and work full-time, without going insane. It’s been a crazy three months just doing one online class and working full-time. And then there’s that pesky task of having a life in between. I’m baffled. To recap: in my last blog about my musical endeavors, I mentioned […]

Since I last wrote in this section back in June of last year, a LOT has happened. Not necessarily from a musical standpoint, but in life. The most significant change in my life over the past nine months was the passing of my father, Mark, after a year and a half of heart trouble. That […]

Last year was the first year I didn’t do a recap of the Oscars after the ceremony, and you know what? It was glorious. Part of it was the fact that very little that happened was unexpected (seriously, I correctly predicted 20 of 24 categories this year), while part of it was, “What’s the point, […]

Snooch to the Nooch! Well, with the Oscars finally happening on Sunday, it’s now time for my final look at the nominees, and a look at my final predictions (all nominations listed in order of preference), and whether they’ve changed in the past month. This year has been a frustrating one, moviewatching-wise, as I haven’t […]
