Hi folks! Here's where I could
really use your help! The following alphabetical list
includes every movie I've seen since I started focusing
on movies Nov. '05. So...what favorite of yours is not
there? Enlighten me! Let me know via the email links
provided and I'll make sure I check it out ASAP!
I think it's a pretty good mix of
flicks. As you'll notice, I tend to focus on the
classics and the top screen legends of old. I didn't
bother making a Misakman's Top Movies of All-Time list
since I loved practically every movie I've seen. I mean
there are only a handful of movies in the whole bunch
that I wouldn't give three, four, or five stars out of
five!
I did feel South Pacific,
Donovan's Reef, Please Don't Eat The Daisies, Tony
Rome, Pal Joey, and maybe a few others were too dated.
I guess I found them a bit too offensive to other races
and/or women. They were still good movies, but I did
find them somewhat on the annoying side in places. For
the most part though, I seem to like everything. I
generally bypass syrupy dramas (so-called
'chick-flicks') in favor of Action/Adventure, Sci-Fi,
Western, Comedy etc., but I always like to see the big
stars in whatever they appear in.
So why am I enlisting your help?
Well, the movie guide I consult, Martin and Porter's
DVD & Video Guide, rates >20,000 films! It just
seems like such a daunting wide open field. I've gotten
kind of a late start movie-wise. I had been focusing
for many years on non-fiction books and music. Since I
got into the whole movie thing I've just been picking
stuff at random from the many genres and have no
particular agenda. Anyway, I'll assume you wouldn't
steer me wrong. If you say a movie is worth checking
out, then I'll check it out! Just check if your choice
is already on my alphabetical list and if it isn't,
email me immediately with your must-see! Tell me why
you liked your movie so much too.
So be a pal! All I can do is thank
you since I'm not paying you a dime and have no free
stuff to send you. You probably have plenty of dough
and enough T-shirts anyway. But you'll have gained a
new friend and isn't that nice in this cold, cold
world? And you of course will feel the immeasurable
satisfaction in having expanded your fellow man's
cultural literacy.
If I happen to run into you at the
cinema (perhaps catching the movie you suggested!) I do
promise to pour you a nice helping of yummy Raisinets
from my big yellow box!
5000+ movies! -- In
Alphabetical Order (by movie title):
Don't see one of your favortite
flicks. Email him ASAP at themisakman@yahoo.com and
tell him what movie to check out next!
