BTW, next month’s Genre has been chosen by Sean of SeanMunger.com We will be reviewing our favorite Nautical Films.
“Loosely defined as anything taking place in, on or under the sea or heavily involving the sea.
Representative examples might include stuff like Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, Mutiny on the Bounty, The Hunt For Red October, The Enemy Below, Damn the Defiant!, Cast Away, that sort of thing.”
Please get me your submissions by the 25th of Feb by sending them to nauticalsean@movierob.net
Try to think out of the box! Great choice Sean!
December 1st was exactly 89 days before the 89th Annual Oscars on the 26th Feb. I therefore decided to start two new series to coincide with the countdown to what will hopefully be a historic night.
I am now 62 days into both of my new series and loving doing them.

Thanks again to one and all for your participation in all that I do here on this site! Without you all, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish all that I have been able to over the past few years.
