Seen: Sunday, April 13, 2008
Here's a still from what might be the best fight sequence ever put on film. (I also wrote a small bit about Monty Python and the Holy Grail over here, as one of my few "Movies of Shame.")I'm also officially declaring Tuesday as "National Worst Day of the Week Day," because it is a day pathetically stuck in limbo and lameness. It has no clever office name like its brother Wednesday's title "Hump Day," and it is in poor form to complain about Tuesday blues, as if it were Monday (i.e. "I've got a case of the Mondays").
So to freshen up Tuesday, I've taken the initiative to start a mini-blogathon! This blogathon also comes at the mid-point of 2008 when we're about to cross the threshold to the coveted fall movies, the Oscar contenders, and more importantly, the slew that will adorn us critics' Top Ten lists with sugary delight. And mostly, because we can't stop our addiction to Listmania--you must be crazy if you think we can wait until December--this gives us a moment to indulge.
Seen and Scarlett Cinema's bother and sister blogs are all participating, including:
-Michael Anderson and Lisa Broad at Tativille
-Matt Singer and Rob Sweeney at Termite Art
-Andrea Janes at Spinster Aunt
-Mike and Maggie Lyon at Tits and Gore
-Karen Wang, Minjae Ormes, and me, Pamela Kerpius at Scarlett Cinema
Lists run the gamut from the Top Ten Best Actors, Top Ten Best Movie Theaters, Top Ten Movies of Mid-Year 2008, and even Top Ten Actors I'd Like To Have Over For Muffins...and MORE!
Be gone, Tuesday doldrums, Listmania has arrived!
