I am today experiencing what we in the biz refer to as a “spike” in visitors. So let me take this opportunity to welcome everyone coming here from Roger Ebert’s Twitter page,* and if you’re looking for some reading suggestions, may I point you towards a few of this blog’s signature items?
–The Summer of Blood, an annual series in which I take a coolly analytical look at some of the most prominent slasher movies and other notable horror movies, that always ends up descending into diatribes about how much I hate life by August.
-A film-by-film retrospective of the Walt Disney Feature Animation canon, published one per day in the run-up to The Princess and the Frog.
-The latest of my occasional filmmaker retrospectives, centered on the great Japanese animation director Miyazaki Hayao.
-My picks for the 100 best films of the ’00s.
Or, if you want to just browse, the link below my photo (that is exactly what I look like, by the way) “Full Index of Reviews” will take you to the index, or just click here.
