My favorite movies from every year of my life.
I had fun with this one!
- This was really fun to do so before I start I wanted to give shouts to both Zach Cherry and Cody Leach for the idea there are both youtubers fyi and you can them out if you want over there.As for this list, I had a few runner- ups for specific years, and I will lwt you know those now. For 1994 the runner up was “The Little Rascals”.For 1998 the runner up was “Snake Eyes” I’m del Palma Stan!, I can’t help it! For 2005 the runner up is “Rumor has it” one of my favorite Jen Aniston movies. 2011’s runner up is “Girl with The Dragon Tattoo”. 2012’s runner up is V-H-S, that’s one of the most unique horror movies I’ve ever seen. And the second sequel I enjoy as well.I had a runner up for 2019 but I don’t remember what movie that was.Ok now that I’ve done that, let me tell you why I’ve done this.I made this list because every movie on this list has had an affect on me the years they came out, and the subsequent years of course.
- Not the first five maybe because I was so young, but over the years they became favorites since. As with everyone else movies hold a special place in my heart, well I’ll say life cause saying heart sounds corny lol. I did another list that is similar to this one, but only with horror movies. I wrote it on my personal blog and I think I might put it on here in October. But back to this list I realized that a lot of my favorites have been action oriented, which is a genre I didn’t really like growing up. But now I can say it’s one of my favorites. Oh! My runner up for 2010 I just remembered is “Inception”. If enough people read this I might put it on YouTube, but if it flops oh well lol. My ultimate favorite movie on this list is my 1994 entry. Just like the other movies most of what I want to say about this movie is in the caption. I haven’t seen anyone do something like this on her. Since we can leave comments on her now , I would like to know if anyone has done this as well. it would be fun to read someone else’s list!! Maybe in a different genre even.
Or maybe I’ll start a trend! 😁
Speaking of trends I have one entry that from Netflix. These days most distributors consider releasing movies on streaming these days. It makes me wonder is it to get people in the theater anymore? Obviously not , there are so many options these days though. It leaves people confused or stressed about what to watch at any given time. Especially when a lot of good movies these day are on those platforms, more so than the theater sometimes. Is streaming the way of the future? Sure but the old guard isn’t going anywhere mousier of it. It just makes it harder to find the quality in the midst of the quantity. And as long as we still support films buy going to see them in person, things will be fine. With that being said, hopefully Covid doesn’t make things worse.
I will also update this list with this year’s pick, although I think that’ll be hard since I haven’t been to the theater myself since going to see “Scream” this year. I admit I’ve been more into television this year, because that’s where the stories are these days! I will sooner or later see more movies though, cause that’s my bread and butter. Ok I’ve talked enough, take a look at my picks! Thanks!

Loving 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S' While Black
Friends is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, from pop-ups and clothes inspired by Rachel, to other articles talking about how dated they think it is. So, with all this going on, I felt it was timely to talk about how conflicted this show made me feel when I was younger. I would tell people that, when they would ask what my favorite show was, usually those my age at the time. At first, I would get "Oh that's cool" responses. Then, the older I got it, turned into "Oh, really? Why?" turned-up-nose responses. I also got the "How is that your favorite show? You're black." responses. So, I just stopped talking about it as much, and enjoyed it alone. I thought at that time, people were just teasing me back then, or trying to make me feel like a sellout in some way.

The Evolution of Pokémon Cards: From Base Set to Modern Expansions
Very few brands can take a fan's mind, like Pokémon, when the fan gathers the trading cards. The Pokémon brand has been very successful since it was first released in 1996 when the Pokémon video game became popular and the trading card game (TCG) became a favorite among fans. The cards may be from the Base Set to the recent expansions. They are well-developed, just like the society of the Pokémon universe, which has grown over time.

I did a horrible job of proof reading. I spot some typos but ah well 😁 I like calling de Palma del palma. Mousier wasn’t the word I was going for, damn autocorrect .
