What Am I Doing Here?

Now, I’ve seen my share of movies in my 37 years on this here planet and, for the most part, I love the movie-watching experience. Even with bad films, it’s not often that I’ve found nothing to take away from one. But with some bad films, I can’t help but question some of the decisions the writers take when it comes to the actual stories.

Now, when I say “bad films”, I understand that that’s a completely subjective opinion. I’m not a film critic. I couldn’t tell you the difference between a cinematographer and a director of photography. Having said that, I can tell when a movie has internal logic that makes fuckall sense to me.

Which is all to say that these aren’t movie reviews. You shouldn’t treat them as such.

These are just thoughts I would have if I was a character in these films…

Thoughts that are very badly illustrated…

Because, in addition to not being a film critic, I’m also not an artist of any sort.

Also, just because a film made it to the site, it’s not to say that I think they’re all without merit (a lot of them aren’t, but not alllll). Honestly, there’s a good chance I like these films more than most others.

Enjoy.
