Get to Know Sour Orange... Why I Love Movies

I love movies. It's a passion of mine. Nothing helps me to escape reality more than a good movie. Sometimes, a good movie can bring me closer to reality. Movies are like that; they touch you if written well enough.

I love movies for so many reasons. There are the memorable moments:



you know, those moments you see in a particularly great movie that just stick with you for hours after the film is over.


Then there are the moments in movies that just make you crack up, laugh, and sometimes squirt Pepsi out of your nose:



you know, those crack me up, make me go nuts, belly hurt from laughter moments...


And let's not forget the moments that bring tears to your eyes:



happy tears or sad tears, those moments seem to be so powerful that they provoke a significant response from your core being...


And then, my favorite movie moment of all, those moments that scare the crap out of you:

moments that make you freak out at the littlest sound outside your window; images that haunt your dreams...


The greatest movies have at least two of these moments, in my humble opinion. Make me laugh and cry in the same film and you have yourself a lifetime fan.


Movies are made up of a series of moments. Just like life. However, in the end, I think that most of us watch movies just to get out of our own life now and then. Take us away from our reality and be whisked away into a land much different than the one we know and love...


So, why do I love movies? I love movies for the moments. I love movies because I like to take a vacation from reality, even if it is only for an hour or two, once in awhile. Movies do that for me. And I hope they do the same for you.


So, why do YOU love movies??

It's Not Rocket Science...

Welcome.


I bet by now you're wondering just exactly what isn't rocket science... Well, if you like movies, then you've come to the right place and are reading the right blog.


To me, making a good movie shouldn't be anything close to rocket science. It should be as easy as knowing what you want to say, what your fans like, and knowing your target audience. Surprisingly, however, there are so many movies out there that, well, really suck. What I don't understand is how some of those movies can be considered worth the money of the movie ticket...


So this is where I come in. I'm here to save you both time and money. Whether it be saving you a rental fee, a movie ticket, or just some precious time I'm here to tell you just what movies are worth the trouble.


Hopefully this will help you in your quest for great entertainment. To me, there is nothing worse than hearing awesome things about and having great expectations for a movie and then, throughout the whole movie, wondering when the "good" part starts.


Sit back, relax, check back here often. I'm here to save you from the movies that suck.
