Spiked.gifThis is going to be a movie blog. Movies are very general category. This means that the discussions that appear will vary. This could be anything from a discussion on comparing two different movies or a recommendation on a movie. There could also be news of upcoming movies. A variety of categories of movies will be discussed. This can include older movies. The discussions will not be limited to what is in theatres or new releases. There will hopefully be a broad mixture of the different categories. If anyone has recommendations on movies they would like to discuss please add that to the comments. Have fun at the movies.
