**”O Brother, Where Art Thou?” was a first time viewing in 2009 therefore it is not a part of my 2010 Film Watch.**

January 3, 2010 – First time viewing.
As comedy goes, I pretty much love anything workplace related: “Dilbert”, TV’s “Newsradio”, “The Office” (both UK and American versions) etc… and I certainly love Mike Judge’s “Office Space”. The work environment is a strange place. More often than not, you’ve got a bunch of very different people [...]
January 1st, 2010 – First (and last) time viewing.
The trailer, cast, and concept of “All About Steve” had all the makings of a run-of-the-mill Sandra Bullock romantic comedy. Not really my kind of movie by any stretch of the imagination but a decent enough film to watch on a lazy first day of a new [...]

I was in grade eight when “Fargo” was released. At that time, films like “Happy Gilmore”, “Black Sheep”, and “Rumble in the Bronx” were more up my alley. It wasn’t until the 1997 Academy Awards when the film won its 2 [...]

This was my second viewing of the Coen Brothers’ “The Hudsucker Proxy”. The first time I watched it, I forced myself to sit down and experience it from beginning to end. For some reason, and I have my theories, it is always on [...]

Catch next week’s Coen Brothers Film Experience entry on Wednesday, November 11th: The Hudsucker Proxy
Quite honestly, the first time that I had ever even heard of “Barton Fink” was right before my viewing of “Raising Arizona” a couple of weeks back. I watched the trailer for “Raising Arizona” right before I watched the actual movie [...]

I swear to god, as the trailers ended and the audience awaited the distribution and production titles attached to the movie, an utter subtle excitement fell across the theater. No joke, I felt like I was at a midnight premiere showing for [...]
