One of the biggest hits at Sundance lately was a British film called Submarine. If you’re a fan of movies like Youth in Revolt or Rushmore, this movie is right up your alley.
This film is a coming of age tale that is set in Wales and features a boy who is on the cusp of becoming a man. Though I can see where people might find this story of a socially inept and unpopular kid to be a bit overdone in this era of film. Regardless, the movie looks damn good to me and it promises to be one heck of a dark comedy.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
