So here goes nothing. I have never had a blog before. I mean, sure I have a tumblr, but that doesn't seem like a blog to me. Rather, it seems just an outlet for me to waste my time. This is my first official blog where I am expressing my opinions on the movies watched this quarter in Theater. I am looking forward to analyzing movies in depth for I hope it will give me a new perspective when watching movies in the future. I guess I should share what my favorite movies are. I mean this is my movie blog so you, as the reader, should get to know who I am when it comes to my movie preference. I am all over the board with movies. My movie taste ranges from 27 Dresses to Inglorious Bastards. Not to mention I am a big fan of horror movies. I absolutely love Blair Witch Project, which still gives me the chills when I re- watch it. So I can guess I can honestly say I love all genres of film. It's crazy to think about all the movies I have watched in my lifetime; too many to count, but movies have been a big part of my life.  Movies are entertainment. And yet they are so much more than that. Movies increase our knowledge about our own and other cultures; they give a voice to the voiceless; they create hope within the audiences watching them; and they can motivate viewers to follow or find their passion in life. Movies engage our day-dreams of an exciting, meaningful life. They are an outlet for the public to escape from reality, and they can introduce us to new things that we may not have time for in our real lives.  In the end, movies reflect the endless fountain of ideas that flow from the human imagination. Hang on movie goers, we are in for quite a ride.
