hey dudes, bit of shameless self promotion here
just started my first blog today, aimed specifically at reviewing unknown and under rated B-movies that I feel sort of fell under the radar. i only have one post now as i just made it today, I reviewed Stone Cold. I wanted to make my reviews guided towards those who are looking for crappy movies, so they're not exactly "insightful", but there's lots of screenshots i meticulously took and posted so it looks cool at least! Anyways, check it out if you feel like it, appreciate any feedback
thanks

Nice job, good layout. Love the pictures. Your review made me want to see the flick. I wish you luck!
Supermarket is one word.

Nice work! Stone Cold is one of my favorites especially because of Henriksen and Forsythe (Savage Dawn is worth a look if you wanna see those two in another cheeseball 80s biker flick).
Fixing The Shadow with Charlie Sheen is another great early 90s biker film I'm pretty fond of too.
I need to be writing more... it's been on hold a bit lately.
Looking forward to reading more.
Good job Mothy......looking forward to more.
I haven't seen this movie since it first came out....fun flick if memory serves me correct. Love the cheesy 80's styles

Looks great. Keep it up.
I will paste you site in my favorites so that I can check it from time to time.
I was on Multiply from 2008-2012. I was known as The Movie Buff.
Now they are changing the format. No more social or blogs.
I did approximately 1,300 blogs on classic films, performers, classic tv and performers and some reviews.
I was able to save them to my pc. I also have hard copies.
I was looking for a place to go with my blogs, uipdate them and do new ones. This looks like the place to go. It seems that my format would fit.
I would do anywhere from 4 to 10 photos ( depending upon the availability on the net), then do a short biography and list films and TV shows the performer was in ( not a complete filmography).
If I can scan one on send a file I will to you by private message.
Just want to know if you think my format would fit there.
In the meantime, have a Happy New Year.
I really enjoy being a film and classic tv buff. And I do like to share my knowledge with blogs. My favorite genre is the Western, followed by film noir and classic sci fi and horrors ( especially the Universal and Hammer ones).
Do people read them? Can you tell how many views you had?
It looks like a format I can use.
I wonder if you can copy and paste?
The ones I need update (most) would have to be put in again. But, oh well, enjoy doing that anyway.
Or you on Blogger or Blogspot?
Thanks.

thanks for the feedback guys, seems like people are digging it, def makes me want to do more. :) Im going to watch Blood Pigs tomorrow, if i like it ill post a review. Thanks for the "supermarket" tip NE.
Glad people liked the layout, its tough for me to edit pictures and such at this point because i don't have photoshop and i have to do everything with MS Paint, which is beyond frustrating hahah.

I think Blogger and Blogspot are the same thing, but from what I've seen so far i think you could work with this format, its pretty customizable.

Yes. It is the same as Multiply was.
I'm not sure if I can copy and paste from my pc files to the blog. But will try.
Anyway I need up date most of them.
Thanks for your help.
