Movie Journal because Stuff
8 years ago
Hello Everyone I dont post normal journals often. so im going to post a Normal journal stuff.
Working at a Movie theater you tend to watch lots of movies (free movies with the job XD) I personally enjoy many different types of media from Books to comics, movies tv shows and of course video games. Ive kept all of my Ticket Stubs of 2016, Not counting the doubles Ive seen movies (zootopia 6 times >.>) and Special events my Theater has (Tuesday Night Classic where we play movies from the 90s or 60s) Ive seen a total of 75 movies. Some great, average, and a few terrible ones. As well as a huge amount I missed out on seeing because of time. if I was to see every movie I planned originally. It may have been close to 100 or more. but besides the point Ive seen 75 Total 2016 Movies.
to give a quick small Year of Review. This year completely surprised me with how much films that had some originality, or design or storytelling that sadly got overlooked or missed. which was so sad when there were a couple Brilliant movies, in my opinion at least, That was missed out. Kubo and the Two Strings is one great example to me. a great example that Stop Motion is still a great way to tell a story, only gross 48 mil domestic. 70 mil total. on a 60 mil budget. (Will make note it was being overshadowed by Suicide Squad later in the month of August, but still)
MY Main Point is all the big Hollywood award shows are ending with Oscars tonight (not talking about it specific). So I wanted to write something that is completely Late but its my fault I didnt get to see a couple movies for awhile. The Hardest part. Making my top 10 movies of 2016 as well as honorable mentions. The problem is there were so many Great movies that I want to shout everyone should see (however I bet 2 or 3 of the stuff I have as contenders everyone has seen).
I have 19 total movies as Contenders however out of those 6 of them are on my List. which means I have 13 others to choose from. 4 more slots to fill and 6 honorable mentions. which means 3 of my options are knock out, and boy this is difficult. But I will get there.
So there is that. just wanted to write whats on my mind with movies and my work. Take care everyone.
