Movie Mad

I haven't had much time to blog lately. Besides getting ready to see Attack of the Clones (yes, I have my tickets pre-ordered), I have been working on my next geeky project--a "replacement" for the Oscars, starting in 1915. (Do these ideas sound as stupid to you as they do to me? Don't answer that.)

This project has me making a new list of nominees for each year. The qualifying movies are the original Oscar winner and nominees, plus any movie that has at least 1000 votes on IMDB with a rating at least as good as the worst nominee the Academy came up with.

I am also throwing on movies from the top 100 at Jeem's CinePad. Jim Emerson is the "Jeem" at Jeem's, and he has come up with a point system to score movies based on the AFI list, the LA Film Critics Awards, the National Film Registry and other sources.

On top of that, I have decided that the entire web site is getting a little clunky. It's easy to add content to it, but when I went to add the new Guestbook (which nobody has signed, by the way), I found it difficult to add the navigation link without it looking bad. So, a major reorg is coming.

TTFN...I'll let you know what I think of that little Clone movie.

Thank you, comment spammers. Thank you to hell.
