Woo-hoo! Channel 8 -- KGW Portland (NBC) is now using my film reviews on their website!
Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 09:21 PM by Radio_Lady


Here's the first one for the new movie "American Gangster":

Will add photos next week. Oh, you can't really get rich reviewing films. At least, not at my age.

This is all for free -- unless the page gets a lot of "click-throughs" so they can continue to sell ads.

Anyway, I'm doing it for the fun of it now.

14. Thanks, Ploppy. Remember -- this is only my opinion!
There are other good movies around that I didn't get to see!

3. That's great! A new forum is always a good thing.
Enjoyed the review. I love mob movies, so I've been curious about this movie. I think I'll see it.

4. I just thought that would be a really good movie...
Washington needs a good director to reign him in...

He can go over the top pretty fast if left unchecked...

17. Denzel is pretty smooth in this movie -- playing a bad guy.
I think they have a winner here! Thanks for your post.

19. Y'know, I don't always respond to your Reviews....
...because I don't get out and see many movies on the big screen,
so I generally don't have any useful comments to add.

But I read them often, and I really appreciate your providing
such a valuable service to DU.

I'm certain that I'm not the only one who feels that way.

8. Wow, congratulations!
It isn't all about money, is it? No doubt, though, you deserve to be richly rewarded. :pals:

10. Wish our "fixed" expenses stayed fixed -- but everything is going up in price this year.
Hopefully, we'll be able to afford living out these "sunset years" -- however long they last.

Thanks, Crim Son :pals:

Perhaps Al's audiobook reviews will find some respect as well.

13. Xema Sab, for much of this holiday season, I'll be in Florida, so my reviews will be AWOL.
Edited on Sat Nov-03-07 06:03 PM by Radio_Lady
I will try to see "Fred Claus" as well as "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" -- and perhaps a few others that are screening this month.

:hi:
