I finally put together my Top 10 of 2007 list. Weakish year for film. Luckily, 2008 seems to have made up for that.
And the 2008 list will be coming soon. I feel like I’ve actually kept up on most all the films that would be contenders for my list.
I know I know I know, I’m about to sound like that guy. The guy who apologizes for not writing on his blog and then promises lots of updates in the future.
Well… I am sorry for not writing, those half-dozen of you who read (and that’s probably being generous). But I did actually have a friend tell me that he noticed I hadn’t updated (thanks, McDuffie!) so I know at least ONE person is reading. And I’m also using the blog for a new purpose starting January 1st: that would be for the Cannonball Read. You can read about it by clicking over on the right about “The List.” But that’ll at least guarantee my being around these parts for shortish book reviews.
And I’m not promising other regular updates, but I’m at least going to promise to try.
Every year that I head towards the beginning of the year, I always come up with grandiose plans of self-improvement and other projects that I hope to accomplish. So this will all very likely fizzle away, but there is that small glimmer that it won’t, and that glimmer is what’s keeping this blog going right now. :-)
In short – I know I’ve neglected the blog. But now I’ve spiffed it up (I always like redesigns – anyone who remembers the Xanga days of high school can attest to this) and there will hopefully be some awesome content ’round these parts in the near future. For now, I’m enjoying the rest of my pseudo-vacation in Santa Rosa and am looking forward to getting back to lovely Hollywood and starting 2009 on a good, literary foot.
So, happy reading.
