Monthly links from the blogosphere: November


Everyone in the blogosphere is reviewing the new 007 film. Sati at Cinematic Corner thought Skyfall was better than Casino Royale. Tippi from On The Screen Reviews was a little disappointed by Skyfall, and prefers Casino Royale. Jaina at Time Well Spent and Ronan at Filmplicity gave Skyfall 5/5.

Nostra is not a big fan of Wes Anderson, but loved Moonrise Kingdom, I have similar feelings about Anderson's latest. Perks of Being a Wallflower is another film he loved, which I'll be posting a mini-review of myself this weekend.
Nostra also was kind enough to help me by making my new banner above. Thanks man! I'll soon be posting a guest post of Nostra's favorite hip hop songs.

Alex Withrow asked How Do You Define a Horror Film? (A great question that started an interesting thread. Worth reading if you are into horror). It could be my favorite article on his blog this year.

    1. @Sati: You're welcome! I definitely prefer the one-liners and humour in Skyfall, but I think the action scenes, non-stop suspense, and love interest elements are superior in Casino Royale

  8. Thanks for the link! It's been interesting to see all the different takes on Skyfall; there's a great analysis of the movie as metafiction on Anomalous Materials.

    1. @David: You're welcome! The reviews have been a bit lukewarm towards Hitchcock biopic(expect praise for the acting). I may skip it, and just watch some good old Hitch movies instead, so your lists should come in handy. I'll take a look soon.

What do you think about the post? I look forward to hearing from you. Rest assured I will reply soon.
