Note: Some Random Updates

I haven't posted in about a week. Being sick will do that I suppose. So I guess instead of doing an actual article, I decided to do this post. I don't know why. At any rate, I've made a few decisions about some upcoming articles. Here we go...

First, I had intended to write up a Most Anticipated Films of 2010 list awhile back. I ran into some issues with that, beyond simply finding time to do it. I realized that, since I wanted to make a serious attempt at a list, such a task was a bit harder than just digging through this year's upcoming releases and finding a few cool movies. Since I'd simply be relying on old news articles from months ago or random searching on IMDB, I figured there were too many unknowns for an amateur movie blogger like myself to compile a comprehensive list. I may try to do a list for 2011, starting it throughout this year as I hear of movies. We'll have to see. As it turns out, I still intend to do a monthly post relating to upcoming movies I am excited for within that month, starting with March. I figure this would also help cover all the movies coming out later this year that we don't yet know about, that a typical list would miss.

Second, I still fully intend to finish my article of my Top Movies of 2009. I started it awhile back, when it was a Top 10 list. It eventually grew into a Top 15, then finally a Top 25 Movies of 2009 list. I was going to post it at the beginning of the year, but I realized there were still some movies that I really should see before making the list official, most notably several Oscar-nominated films. I have been able to see a few of those films, and I only have a few more I consider to be must-watches before I can complete my list. I know I'll be a bit late to the party with my 'Top Films' list, but I think it's something I should finish, whether on principle, as good practice, or just for fun. I plan to have it up before the Oscars on March 7th, at the very latest.

Also, I have a new poll up for who will win Best Actress at the Oscars. I don't care if you select who you think will win, or who should win. It's up to you! So vote if your heart desires.
