I am a huge movies fan. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I don’t get much free time to enjoy watching movies. But when I do, I try to share my thoughts about the movies that I’ve seen. Movie reviews, celebrity news, trailers of upcoming flicks, etc – are all in this category.
Someone recommended to see “Mysterious Skin” and so I did.

I was in a mood for some light and entertaining film, so I picked up “Sideways” which was marked as comedy, romance, and drama with high rating. I thought it was one of those nicely done romantic comedies with some sadness to it.

I’ve just noticed that in my voting history at IMDb I have exactly 300 movies. Not so bad for a couple of years, if you ask me. In fact, I’ve watched a bit more than 300 movies technically. Some of the movies aren’t at IMDB, some I’ve seen but didn’t remember the title or didn’t vote at all, and some I’ve watched more than once.
Anyway, 300 is a round number. And it is a big one too. So I thought I’d post about it and acknoledge the fact.
