Living in Cinema’s anniversary kind of snuck up on me this year and I debated whether or not to make a note of it. Noted or not, here we are at two years old and no one is more surprised by that than me.
Once again I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of [...]

Go ahead, bite the big apple (don’t mind the maggots)
In our ongoing campaign of world and Internet domination, Living in Cinema is pleased to announce that we’re opening up satellite offices in the heart of New York City. That’s right, The City That Never Sleeps.
As we speak, an advance team of LiC monkeys is flying [...]

For those of you keeping score at home, this is LiC’s 1000th post. Not a big deal in the big picture I suppose, but considering I wasn’t sure if there would be a 2nd post after my 1st, I’m happy this day has arrived.
Thanks to all the readers new and old, current and former, and [...]

Those of you who might be wondering where today’s Movies You May Have Missed column is: I’m experimenting with a Sunday run to give Netflix users a chance to readjust their queues for Monday shipments of new releases. You can read this week’s column here.

Against all odds, Living in Cinema turns one year old this month. Technically, the first post was on April 17th so it’s still a few days off, but we’re close enough to one trip around the sun to make this a good time to pause and reflect on where LiC has been and to think [...]

We take a passive approach to pimping and whoring here at Living in Cinema, however letting the content speak for itself will only get you so far. The LiC monkeys keep telling me they want to turn it up to eleven and, since things run more smoothly when the monkeys are happy, I’m letting them have their [...]

Me and the crack staff of Living in Cinema monkeys are going to be making sweet sweet love to the city of Portland this weekend. I’ve trained one of them to play the zither and another one to mix the perfect Manhattan so hopefully there will be all manner of monkey related shenanigans.
What does all this [...]

There have been a few quiet changes around Living in Cinema lately. For starters, I hit my unannounced goal of posting something new every day for the month of January. I actually ended up posting multiple items most days and I really enjoyed the regularity and consistency. I regret that the frequency of the longer posts has dipped, [...]

In 4th grade, I ran for school treasurer. I made speeches. I made posters. At the time, I was even pretty sure I invented the spelling of ’trea$urer’ with a dollar sign for the S. Turns out I was pretty sure of a lot of other things in 4th grade that weren’t true either; the [...]

Just a few words before we head into the weekend:
I’m making an adjustment to my star-rating policy. I’d originally decided never to give a new movie a perfect 5-star rating because it seemed the height of foolishness to put a movie I’ve only seen once into the pantheon of greats that have stood the test of [...]

Living in Cinema is currently going through some server changes and design upgrades. Since I’m doing it myself and since I don’t know what I’m doing (a lethal combination), there will probably be glitches. Thank you in advance for your patience.

It turns out reviewing movies on a regular basis is harder than I thought it would be, however, they’ve sort of become the back bone of this blog. I suppose it was inevitable since I don’t care to pick over ever detail of a movie before it’s even released, I have zero interest in box [...]

Greetings internet surfing reader types! A special hello to the regulars and an enthusiastic shout out to some of you crazy Chinese hunting for sweet Shrek 3 pictures. Thank you all for continuing to stop by during the last month of incredibly weak blog output.
I’ll spare you the reasons because reasons are like excuses and…well [...]

I obsessively check up on how many people are viewing this blog and why, partly because I’m an attention whore and partly because I’m curious to know what people are responding to even if they don’t leave a comment. It turns out for example, a lot of people have been searching for the name of the [...]

I’ll be on vacation from July 6 to July 16, 2007. I’ll have computer access, but I don’t know how much writing I’ll be doing until I get back. I’m hoping to do a lot of reading and photography and relaxing and I think it will be good to take a rest from movies. I may [...]
