Not a lot (I'll do better next year, I promise!), but I thought I'd see what exactly, if anything, you guys liked this year.
Reviews.
Under the Cherry Moon
Rocky IV
Beach Girls and the Monsters
Hawk the Slayer
Astro-Zombies
Zabriskie Point
Glitter (Pip)
Dirty Love (Pip)
Nuggets:
Future-Kill
Crossroads
The Yesterday Machine
The Paul Lynde Halloween Special
Destination: Inner Space
Gorilla at Large
Here's to a better, more productive 2008! Thanks to all of you guys for continuing to hang around.
PEGGY: I don't see how having a girl on the team would ruin it. Did a woman judge ruin the Supreme Court?
HANK: Yes, and that woman's name was Earl Warren.

I really liked Pip's "Dirty Love" and "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special" actually made me get a copy from Amazon and watch it. (Thanks a lot, Ken)

| My favourite piece was Rocky IV, but I think I'm a minority here, in that I prefer articles on "newer" stuff. Most bad movies I'm familiarised with are from the 80s onward. |

I don't think there were any clunkers but my personal faves were Rocky IV, Under The Cherry Moon and the Paul Lynde Halloween Special. I'm really missing the Superfriends nuggets...

My votes go to.....
Beach Girls and the Monsters
Gotta go with the 'classics'
Glitter (Pip)
To me, there was just something 'strange' about it.
Nuggets:
The Yesterday Machine
A cheerleader/drum majorette vs nazis! I mean, COME ON, how could you not vote for it?
Gorilla at Large

We love Ken!
My choice is naturally the movie I requested, (ZP), but a close second is Under the Cherry Moon. Ken should do one movie a year from the last five to seven years. Generally, he does.
We should put the six (or so) people who recently approached Ken offering to contribute together on one web site and let them all do their own thing. Just random people all going in their own direction. You'd never know what they'd do next. It'd be like a circus.
In fact, that's what they could call it: The Big Top.
Just think of what six random followers here could do: Patrick, the Rev, Zombiewhacker, Prankster, Greenhornet and Neville. (Just some of my favs here, by no means a complete list.) I bet I could even get my step-bro Dalton to contribute. He is to movie reviewing what drunken school bus races are to Formula 1.

PIP you're right, I've been neglectful. I would like to do a review of "Nyoka And The Tigermen" as a companion piece to John Nowak's "Jungle Girl", but it's FIFTEEN FREEKING CHAPTERS long and I'm a little intimidated.
I have a two-disk set of Bonita Granville's 4 Nancy Drew movies and I could do one of those. Would that be OK?

Sounds fine. Just get together with similar like-minded people, find some easy-to-use page program and away you go! I think the Rev. is game.

I have to say, I think this is a great idea. And again, with blogging software, you can set up a site in a matter of minutes.
Go to it!
