Thanks again to S.G. for choosing such a great and diverse Genre for May

In addition to Genre Grandeur, I added a new feature recently called Genre Guesstimation where I review other movies in the monthly GG in order to see whether I think they deserve to be part of my favorites in the given genre!

Genre Guesstimation Reviews – 5 (0 Genre Grandeur Worthy)

Thanks to all my loyal followers for helping make this all happen!

BTW, Genre Grandeur for June (chosen by Kim) will be teen/high school romance movies, so send me your review of your favorite one to teen@movierob.net before 25th June in order to take part! Try to think out of the box!

Looking forward to seeing what you all have in mind!

I have also inaugurated a new feature last month called Temporal Top Ten and I have been presenting you all with my favorite movies from randomly chosen years. To read more about this series, check it out here. In May, I featured another 10 top ten lists and I will continue to feature two new lists every week one on Friday and one on Saturday respectively.

I also want to thank once again all 30 of my friends who contributed to my Movies From the Hat 2 Series. I really enjoyed exploring these movies that you all recommended.

Hope you all enjoy it!

Have a great month!

-Rob
