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

BTW,  Next month’s Genre has been chosen by Abbi of Abbiosbiston.com  We will be reviewing our favorite Alternate Love Story movies. In order to get a better idea as to what this genre might include, check out this post by Abbi from last year. Please get me your submissions by the 25th of November by sending them to altlove@movierob.net  Try to think out of the box! Great choice Abbi!

Looking forward to seeing what you all have in mind!

• In October, Darren of Movie Reviews 101 and I ran a Stephen King blogathon where each of us reviewed 31 of his adaptations plus we had another 15 Reviews from fellow bloggers.  Tnx to everyone who participated!

Hope you all enjoyed it!

Have a fantastic month!

-Rob
