ArnoldHello, welcome to Celluloid Notes
Hey there, this isn't going to be an elaborate introduction into this site, but we're going to be posting lots of movie reviews (new and old films) and buzz/news on upcoming/ongoing projects from independent and studio productions. Over the next couple of days there will be a lot of posts here as I update the archive from our former home at Really Long Link Meanwhile that site will continue to have new reviews daily until later this week or early next. If you have any suggestions for a series of films you'd like reviewed or news tips feel free to e-mail me at dlukenelson@gmail.com Otherwise keep checking back. Celluloid Notes will be updated five to six times per week. Every weekday, and sometimes on the weekend for bigger news and/or weekend reviews. Thanks for coming and checking the site out. Please leave a comment and let me know who you are and from where you're blogging.
To give you a rough idea of what my star system is about here's a brief explanation, because I hate reviewers (Chris Hewitt, Collin Covert) whose rating system seems to have no basis or format. i think ratings are an effective method of short criticism, but they have to carry at least some meaning otherwise it's as arbitrary as asking a friend.
***** = Masterpiece (i try not to throw it around lightly)
**** = Must-see
*** = very good film, many redeeming qualities
** = good, but lacked the ability to pull it all together
* = has a redeeming facet
0 = schlock
