Hey everyone, C.J. here.
We're trying a few new things around here at Your White Marsh Suncoast . Obviously, one of those things is interacting with our customers on a whole new level by using facebook to communicate our special offers, events, and cool news.
This blog, Setting the Frame, will be a place for me to share my personal thoughts with you through film reviews, recommendations, and the state of Hollywood in general. Regardless of the chosen topic, it's going to be an honest representation of my personal perspective, which is to say that I'll be pulling no punches when I don't like something.
Now, I've been referred to as a Killjoy in the past (Thanks, Cesar.), but I do try to keep an open mind when I see a new film. My standards are simply very high. There's entertainment and there's art. I enjoy both when they are done well, but I've never been shy about pointing out what I don't like about something. The reverse is true also, when I like something, I'm very vocal about it and want others to at least check it out.
This will just be another forum for the discussion that naturally occurs when movie fans get together. You are all welcome to let me know what you think by commenting below. As long as we keep things respectful on both ends - no cursing, personal attacks, or spamming - there shouldn't be any problems. I always encourage you to be part of the conversation.
Look for the first real post later this week. Give me your feedback on the format as well as content.
Later,
C.J.
