Day 1

Welcome to Reel Speak! This forum is intended to inspire discussion and the trading of ideas in the world of film. Here, there will be reviews, news, trailers and important historical items posted semi-daily.

A good movie, and even a bad one, can and will inspire thoughts amongst lovers of the art. Many people may look at THE GODFATHER as the greatest movie ever made. Others may consider it to be a snore. That's fine, providing both sides can justify it. That's what makes the movies so much fun and intriguing.

Here's how things will unspool here:

-Reviews of new films will be posted as soon as possible. For those unfamiliar with my review style: I have a ranking system of (1) See it (2) Rent it (3) Fuck it. Those familiar with intelligence should be able to figure out which ranking is favorable and which is not.

-Relevant news of upcoming films will also posted, along with trailers when possible. I will try to avoid spoilers, but will put up a warning when I can't. News will be focused on upcoming movies only, and will avoid celebrity gossip and associated crap.

-Relevant news of changing technologies will also be posted. The world of filmmaking and projection is ever-changing, and an awareness of it will only enhance a person's enjoyment.

-History: Nearly every day can be backtracked to an important day in filmmaking history. You can't go forward unless you know where you've been.

-Local filmmaking and theatre news will also be posted.

-Don't forget to vote in the weekly poll! A forum will be created for each poll for discussion.

Thanks for navigating your way here.
