The Introductory Post for My Bloggy Thing

     Hi there. I like movies. I like movies so much, that I sometimes like to write reviews of movies. I wrote movie reviews for the school newspaper during the entirety of my senior year. If you'd like to see them you can look here: www.riomirada.com. I wrote from September '09 to May '10. During this stint of writing movie reviews, I realized that I had a lot of fun doing it (so much fun that I neglected to write any actual news stories). So, I've started this blog thing where I'll be posting movie reviews.

     The posting schedule will probably be very erratic, as I don't have much time (or money) to go see new films, so you should probably expect reviews of older movies, with some occasional new bits thrown in. I'll try my best to offer a new take on older films that have been endlessly written about, but don't expect much other than simple reviews. It's what I like to do. I'll also probably assign some kind of star rating or something, I don't know. I'll also probably sprinkle in the occasional odd or weird movie review as well. You should also expect me to go on for quite a long time. I tend to write reviews that are 1500 words or more.

     Anyway, that's my story, and I hope you enjoy the upcoming reviews. I'll probably start with a review of "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" that should be up within the week. Please feel free to leave comments or constructive criticism. Thank you, and have a nice day.
