Ahoy, Internet friends! Just a little update on what’s been happening at EDS HQ lately.
I haven’t been writing a lot of movie reviews, on account of the situations wherein people pay me to write them have been sparse. But I’ve been writing other movie-related things, and my podcast, Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider, still has me reviewing movies, only with my voice instead of my writing.
Over at Mental Floss, I’ve been writing list-oriented articles about various beloved films. The idea is to find information about these movies that the average fan doesn’t already know. This can be a challenge, but so far I have not resorted to just making things up.
Here’s my author page at Mental Floss, and here’s what I’ve covered so far:
Aliens
All About Eve
Amelie
Casino
Chinatown
Con Air
Days of Thunder
Dog Day Afternoon
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Face/Off
Good Will Hunting
The Hunt for Red October
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Raging Bull
Requiem for a Dream
Singin’ in the Rain
The Sting
Sunset Boulevard
Taxi Driver
Unforgiven
The Usual Suspects
Weird Science
I also did this comedy ha-ha piece for Movie Mezzanine: a do-it-yourself film festival blurb generator. May it bring you hours of enjoyment.
As always, I will be very grateful for any Facebook or Twitter shares of any of these pieces. The higher-ups like that sort of thing, as it tricks them into thinking they should continue to employ me.
