SLAM! Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Oh, hello there! I see you've found my humble little website! I do film reviews here! (I mean, what else would I review, really?!) I am dedicated to giving people my honest opinion regarding films that I like and films that I don't like, and I'm willing to cover films both big and small! My personal mission, as a critic, is to have my readers be aware of the films that provide a healthy balance of technical mastery, entertainment value, and storytelling prowess! I'm willing to review films on request, so if you've a film you want me to review, I'll review it! It is my solemn hope that I provide you with honest, engaging, and thought-provoking movie reviews over time! - Slambros Edited November 14, 2018 by Slambros 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorschach Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 @Slambros I'd recommend since you're gonna be reading sequels to also read/review the previous films too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 There’s a list in Blankments’ review thread with the films with past installments. The big ones are... Spark The Odyssey Pokémon American Dragon: Jake Long 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense! When it's time for me to review sequels, I'll review their predecessors, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAM! Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 My plan is not to start reviewing movies in this thread until Y5. So this is my Y5 thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many movies do you plan to read until then? Edited October 28, 2018 by cookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

College is pretty strenuous on me at the moment so if I did start reviews now, I'd only do a few at a time. But I would certainly choose to review the predecessors of sequels that are almost guaranteed to come out in ththe forthcoming year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you want to prepare ahead I can look through the announced stuff and send a list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each year has deadlines (even if they’re often extended) and out of all the movies that are announced beforehand I think less than half (generous estimate) tend to get finished either due to lack of interest, story problems or time. Until a film is posted in full, nothing should be taken as certainty. I had several films announced for Year 4 myself but had to delay all of them because I got stressed out.

I feel like that could easily happen to me, too. But that's alright! That makes a lot of sense to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Also, just as a heads up, people usually make a new thread for each year so we can archive them more easily via our yearly critical consensus threads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorschach Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Hey, just out of curiosity, how far along are you in the reading of the Y4 films? I just want to get a feel for how everyone who's not finished yet is doing so I can plan out potential dates for opening up nominations/finding the ceremony date.

I'm just now dipping into the July films; my pursuit of reading the first two Odyssey queries before the third one has caused a bit of a lull in my progression but I'm managing for sure. 4 minutes ago, Hiccup23 said: Review Poison and Wine series....I dare you I can certainly read those when I can! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Test gave me PTSD from all the times I tried to watch Cartoon Network and got unwillingly bombarded by all those reruns inexplicably aired every single Saturday afternoon. The query certainly achieved its intended goal of being an appalling adaption with frightening real-world implications on Hollywood as a whole.
