The. Avengers.

Well I had a fun weekend. What is it like to look forward to weekends?? I often wonder what that feeling is like. I had the pleasure of working the midnight on Thursday night and then followed it up with a super fun night shifts friday, saturday and then tonight. Literally the worst 4 days [...]

Horror Movie Trailer

Here’s a movie trailer I wrote, shot and edited for a film class at NYIT a couple years ago. It’s for a horror movie. I wanted to do a movie trailer because I think they’re more fun to edit than a regular short film so let me know what you think of it Fun fact: [...]

I almost died last weekend…

One might think this is dramatic but I would disagree because I’ve never felt closer to death than I did last weekend when I got…(drumroll please) … The flu. What I thought was just bronchitis was actually the dreaded 3 letter word that now sends a shiver down my spine. I’ve never had the flu [...]

Movie Musicals

I’m a huge fan of musicals. I’ve always found a world where people just break out into song and dance in the middle of the street really cool. They’re predictable for the most part and they almost always end with a happy ending, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. My dream is to [...]

Fricken Hunger Games

I don’t even know if I have the ability to blog this week. I’m mentally, physically, and most importantly emotionally damaged and possibly permanently ruined from this weekend at that God forsaken theatre. Apparently “Hunger Games” is popular…I didn’t know this….now I do. I never even heard of the Hunger Games a few months ago [...]

The Intricate and Difficult Process of Navigating through the Rated R Movie Policy

I love movies like Rated R horror movies and comedies just as much as the next person…but I am forced to completely dread every single movie like these that come out. I would love to be able to look forward to them. I really do love the Paranormal Activity movies. They terrify me and when [...]

Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep. This blog needs no other title other than the two words that mean everything good in this world…Meryl Streep. I don’t see any reason to interrupt my daily movie theatre blog other than to pay tribute to one of my favorite human beings to ever walk this earth. I have a number of [...]

He molested a bunch of kids and then the parents of the children burned him alive while he was wearing a Christmas sweater. So after being killed he started haunting the dreams of [...]

REEL talk – Confessions of a Movie Theatre Manager

I started working at my movie theatre in 2009 at the innocent age of 19. I wish I had taken a picture of myself on the day before my first day..to capture that happy young girl, full of life. I’m not a huge Harry Potter fan but I’ve seen a couple of the movies and [...]
