You might have noticed this space slow down a little bit over the last few days. I hope you’ll forgive me for taking a moment to take a breath and reload.
You see I found myself thinking about what I want this space to be all about recently. For starters there was Roger Ebert’s post recently about twenty ground rules every movie critic should follow (I suggest every fellow blogger to read them). Running through the list, I managed to score rather well and only find myself stumbling over trailers and autographs.
Reading the article got me thinking about what i want this blog to be. While on one hand I want it to be some people’s source for cinematic opinion and insight…I also want people to have a reason to read it. I mean let’s face it, there’s a fine line between fluffy filler on a slow movie news day, and posting for the sake of posting my own babble. Likewise, I don’t want to make a mad dash to my keyboard the moment the credits roll just for the sake of getting my two cents in. It’s all about balance.
All the same – I’m willing to bet we all found ourselves looking in the same direction over since Monday anyhow!
I agree. There should definitely be time for reflection and thought about what you’re doing! I’m still trying to figure it out…
I would say I am as well to a point, but I think I’ve found what I want my site to be, even if it isn’t all the way there yet.
It’ll come to you eventually…
