With so many excellent blogs around it is daunting to make my own. <br />I find that having to write something about a movie changes the viewing experience. I pay a lot more attention to detail now and so get more out of the movie. That I think is reward in itself, even if my comments turn crap.TSorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208153011927807857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-62359818065575928122012-07-12T00:31:50.616+03:002012-07-12T00:31:50.616+03:00Good luck with this effort.

Instead, I would go through it a few times a year checking off the ones I had now seen. <br /><br />It wasn't until another blogger pointed me towards the 1,001 Movies You Must See Before You Die Blog Club that I starting turning my attention to it. As it turns out, I had already seen 500 or so films from the book. <br /><br />Starting in February of this year I actually put together a tracking sheet of all the films, their availability, and which ones I had seen. Since then I've been deliberately picking films from the list to watch, along with viewing regular films. I also review them periodically at my blog, although unlike SJHoneywell and Siochembio it is not focused only on films from that book. I use a "Movies - 1001 Movies" Label to specifically indicate those.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-28380662742783930012012-06-26T02:03:58.396+03:002012-06-26T02:03:58.396+03:00800! wow, I figure I will get there in lets see, 1...800! wow, I figure I will get there in lets see, 18 years! <br />I found that site and was looking in vain for a way to comment on the posts.

I am looking back at all the fantastic movies from this book that I've seen but haven't written about! It's scary!!!!<br /><br />I did have another blog on another site, but for archival reasons, I decided to move my stuff over here. The other site had a nonexistent organizational system, and as the reviews started to pile up, I grew more unhappy with it. Plus it didn't allow people from other sites to comment; at least, not easily. So now, you'll see a lot of posts from me because I'm just copying and pasting my old reviews over to this site.siochembiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487373396181856763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-4904858695987612932012-06-25T10:03:16.133+03:002012-06-25T10:03:16.133+03:00Thank you very much!

Finding people doing the same thing and witing about it made me start my blog, though it took some convincing to be 100+ down the list and only then start to write about it. Some of those older movies can be a bit difficult to remember in detail. <br />Did you not have another blog before this one?TSorensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208153011927807857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2746502363551524682.post-23965247907333341702012-06-25T01:30:02.002+03:002012-06-25T01:30:02.002+03:00I started going through "1001 Movies" ba...I started going through "1001 Movies" back in 2006, and for years, I felt very alone in my film journey. As such, I eventually languished and set aside the book for a year or two. The past six months, I've found so many people online who are also going through this book, it's been rejuvenating. Like you, I've also been going through "1001 Movies" chronologically. Like you, I also just started my blog here! Here's wishing you well in your journey!siochembiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487373396181856763noreply@blogger.com
