I was thinking about his as I was out wandering the web. I don’t do news simply because too many others do. I could easily do what everyone else does and give you the same news everyone has but how much fun would that be. I don’t do copy and paste.

Movies, films, flicks, shows, drama, comedy, horror, sci/fi, action, no matter what you call them they all mean something different to everyone. Where did my love affair with movies start?
The first movie I remember seeing was when I was 3, my mom took to me to see the original Star Wars. After that I wanted every movie to have space ships.

Have you ever gone back to watch a movie you saw as a kid that you loved then and now you wish you could stick a fork in your eye to avoid having to watch it again?

So here is more remakes in the pipe and why I think they are a good or bad Idea. Most of these do not have much in the way of information on IMDb which is why there are no links for some of these in this post.

I actually wrote this piece 3 months ago for my personal blog site and felt it fitting to move it over here.
I was reminded yesterday by my girlfriend that I am indeed The Movie Whore. I was on a website with free streaming movies. I decided to watch Doom. You know the 2005 bomb staring none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. I have indeed seen the movie before and I do acknowledge it to be a steaming pile of shit, however it’s an entertaining steaming pile of shit. At least I think so. I am not saying I would own it but on a Saturday afternoon it’s a nice diversion. My girlfriend seemed to be in pain as I told her what movie I had found and was planning to watch. She pointed out the groups of people it pissed off from the fans of the game to fans of Dwayne Johnson. She also made statements that it was the worst movie of the year that year, I got curious and know how to use Google. Yes I searched out the worst movie of 2005. I got several results but the one that stood out was “Alone in the Dark” (Really shitty game movie starring Christian Slater) as the worst movie of 2005. I could not disagree as I mistakenly watched this movie a second time because it was so bad I had blocked it out of my mind that I had originally seen it. Yes it is that bad. Then again I am the Movie Whore and should retain such knowledge. I watched Doom anyway. She gave me that “you really are just you” look and my day continued into the evening and I went to sleep.

We all have those movies that speak to us on a personal level. I was recently reminded of this after having a particularly bad start to my day. How I bounced back was to sit and watch Clerks 2. Hit helped center me. I have the same feelings in regards to the first Clerks. At the time I could not explain why it would center me but I have been thinking about it the last couple days and I believe I figured it out.

I really get tired of being told that movies have to be good to be taken seriously. The standard is one that is used by critics that went to film school and now being a critic is all they can do with it. I like good movies but I love entertaining movies. There are a lot of entertaining movies out there that critics just don’t like. I am not a critic, I am a movie whore. I have never watched a movie to see if it was good. I have always watched movies to be entertained and if it was good that was an added bonus. While it may be important to make good movies it is a matter of movie life or death for it to be entertaining. Here are some of my favorite movies that fall in this area.
