I feel like I’ve been a bit remiss in my movie theme watching (and writing) this year. I don’t know why exactly except that I’ve been busy. Busy with work. Busy with family stuff. Busy watching (and writing) about movies for Cinema Sentries. I thought that giving up on my music blog would give me more time to write for this one. And it has to an extent, but I seem to be posting more about things that aren’t a part of the month’s them than are.
It is also difficult to get into that groove. For so long I posted music everyday it had become a habit. I’m still working on making this blog a habit.
Which brings us to the Totally Awesome ’80s in April. This will be my third year with this theme and I’m excited about it. Historically I do really well with it. Since it tackles an entire decade and not a specific genre it is much easier to find movies to watch. I especially love the 1980s because I grew up in that decade and have a ton of memories watching movies as a kid, but also because there are a ton of movies geared towards adults that I didn’t watch.
It has been really fun to dive into a lot of those movies these last two years and watch films that would not have interested me as a pre-teen.
I’ve already watched three movies from the 1980s this weekend and I should have some reviews posted this coming week.
Now that’s what I call awesome.
