I'm in the go-between time of the Golden Globes and the
Oscars where I'm realizing all the movies and tv shows I never bothered to watch are up for awards. I've decided to watch one movie/show per day (that might be too much, right?) and review each one. There are two reasons I'm doing this.
The first reason is there are so many important things to watch. Shows with a great message, maybe some lessons on how to improve how we live our lives. Or many just how we view the world outside our own little bubble. So few of us actually live outside of a bubble, but I don't think we really take the time to reflect on it. Reflection brings guilt. Guilt for things we just can't change........and guilt for things we could change but are just too uninclined to be bothered with.
The second reason is that there will likely be more Google searches going on over the next month or two and maybe one or two new readers would come across this page and feel that what I say might not be important, but at least it'll (hopefully) be entertaining.
Here's my list. I took a peek at the
Golden Globes website for these picks. My goal is to watch everything that was nominated including those shows/movies that weren't nominated but had a participant (actor, writer, production, etc) nominated for working on that project. (HOLY SHIT THIS LIST IS LONG!!!!)
