It almost came and went without my noticing, but this site has now been going for more than 10 years now, and I’ve done 200 commentaries. I first started the site in early 2004 as a place to hold my movie reviews and travel photos and my opinions on culture and government, but by late 2006 I found I was more interested in doing commentaries for movies.
I started where it’s only natural—the classics: Casablanca, La Dolce Vita, and the Firefly TV series. I’ve made quite a number of friends and had some great times watching movies with some of them, and my commentaries get enough feedback that I feel people are enjoying them, so it’s worth it to keep going.
And now that I have a fresh look for the site, I feel like I might just keep tinkering and musing for another 10 years and 200 commentaries.
Thanks for listening!
You forgot to mention that in that same time span you also created the go-to website for fan commentaries. Those of us who love listening to fan commentaries definitely appreciate it. Found commentators I never would have found. Made friends I wouldn’t have made.
Congrats on the 10 years.
Well, that was my identical twin brother. I can’t take credit for that. That guy is amazing.
