The Week Ahead: Edward R. Murrow Imagines Dragons

Well, last week mostly went off as expected, although Burn After Reading and Andrew's announcement about his favorite movies of 2013 list came out over the weekend. The one "Dispatches from the Popcorn Stadium" that didn't make it in last week was Nebraska, in part because the week ran out on Andrew. He wanted to wait until he saw the film a second time (which he did yesterday), so look for this post sometime early in the week.

The Week Ahead: There's a 50/50 shot you will Burn After Reading this in Nebraska, Philomena

First off, I apologize for the title of this weeks "The Week Ahead", but it had to be done. This is probably the last time two movies on Andrew's "DVD Case Pantheon" and two movies for "Dispatches from the Popcorn Stadium" can be used in an actual sentence like that. Just be glad I didn't try to fit Out of the Furnace in there somehow.

As you can tell from the title, this will be a big week for two current movie features. The first two entries of Andrew's "DVD Case Pantheon" will be posted sometime this week. We'll start with 50/50 on Wednesday and then Burn After Reading on Friday.

The Week Ahead; Movies, Movies, and Movies

As this blog moves towards it's first year, it's time to take a quick look back, while also looking forward. It would be accurate to say the frequency of posts has been inconsistent. We started quick out the gate, but lost steam, primarily because the contributors and administrators took new jobs and moved to new places. This was a mixed blessing, as Andrew gained easier access to movies (and the resources to watch them), but lost much of the time to keep up the blog. Beyond a few posts saying goodbye to The Office and 30 Rock, some summer recaps, and a few random posts here and there, the blog was mostly dormant through the spring and summer. As the fall movie season warmed up, the posts have picked back up, although not regularly, with Andrew's "Dispatches from the Popcorn Stadium". There are many more coming, and expect to usually get one or two of these a week, provided Andrew is not on vacation or too busy to watch new movies.

In addition to the continued editions of "Dispatches from the Popcorn Stadium", we'll be attempting to keep up several other weekly features, starting with this one. Each week we'll be sharing a quick preview of what will be showing up during the rest of the week.
