Tangled: The Japanese Trailer

Ever wonder how Disney films are sold overseas? While the American marketing is selling Tangled as a grand family comedy, the Japanese trailer focuses more on the magic and even some of the emotions the story of Rapunzel displays.

An apology and return to form

Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted something here, but I will change that.

First off, I want to apologize for such a long hiatus. I've been very busy as of late, dealing with school and some physical issues (which thank goodness it's been dealt with). On top of this the fall gaming season is upon us, which means I get to play and review a lot of big games, limiting my time even further.

Finally, if you guys allow me to be honest for a second, I wish for more user input and comments. I want to know if you agree or disagree with me about these great films and maybe even spark some discussion. At times it feels like I am talking to an empty room so again, I will really appreciate comments, feedbacks, opinions, discussions, ANYTHING that will inspire me to keep reviewing movies.

On that note I AM planning a big return for next month. In honor of Halloween, I will be reviewing classic horror films and more! I will try to make this a reality so please stick around!

Thanks for your incredible patience and I promise things will get better.

My Rating System

Hello everybody! I decided to slightly tweak my Filmstrip Memories rating system as well as explain them so everyone can get a better idea of how they work.

Let's begin now, shall we?

1 filmstrip out of 5: A rating given to the worst movies ever made. There's nothing of worth in this film and should be avoided at all costs.

2 filmstrips out of 5:: The film has enough redeeming qualities that may make it a favorite among some fans, but the overall product is disappointing.

3 filmstrips out of 5: You may love or hate this movie. It is very well made but has some very noticeable flaws that lower its value down. Still it is worth seeing, though a rental is recommended.

4 filmstrips out of 5: The film is great. Despite a few obvious flaws the overall film is very well made and worth your time.

5 filmstrips out of 5: Nearly perfect in every way and more than deserving of the title "the best ever made", this means that the film MUST be watched if you are a movie fan. It may have some small flaws but its accomplishments far out-weight the bad. Must not be missed!

Hope this explains everything! Until then, see you at the movies!

My Apologies

I want to apologize to all of you my dear readers for not updating the blog in the last few weeks. I experienced a problem with my laptop's charger and it's been taking me forever to get a replacement. The computer I am currently using has limited access (as in I am borrowing someone else's in the meantime, and doesn't have MS Office installed), so I can't make updates.

My sincerest apologies for the slowdown. I promise that as soon as I get my charger (which I hope is sometime this week) I will update this blog and keep it up to date from then on.

Hope you use this opportunity to catch up on the other reviews and features previously posted on the blog while I try to fix everything up on my end.

Thanks for your support and patience!
