A little bit of this and not so much of that

The blogs I write about almost always have a specific niche, whether it be technology, videogames, or even saving money in daily life. Not often enough to do I write about those simple blogs whose only goal is to entertain the reader with stories and images, a concept from the webdays of old.

This is because not often enough are there even good blogs to write about with this sort of premise. They're usually either so wild and unruly, or entirely uninteresting, that I can't see any reason to post them on my blog for featuring.

Who Wrote This Crap?

...and What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?

Entertainment is at our core, demanding every ounce of respectable time that we have. When we don't quench that hunger, we're 'bored,' and anyone knows just how much we, as thinking human beings, despise being 'bored.' Movies are the centerpiece of entertainment, and though other forms of media are quickly overtaking it, the cinema industry holds strong. When you're dealing with hundreds of billions of dollars, though, it's not really all that hard. They could always use a little help though, right?

That's where Smokin D comes in. He authors the Who Wrote This Crap? blog, which features his succinct, to-the-point movie reviews. He writes about such movies as Wanted, Machete, and the ever-annoying Sweeney Todd. I gotta give him credit for having such an eclectic, varied taste (that, or he's incredibly unbiased; either are commendable).

His blog often promotes movies in a themed 'Week' format. His most recent themed week (as linked above) was What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome? and it featured five movies that, save for Machete, I think were really quite silly-awesome indeed. You don't have to agree with his tastes to like his blog (because, honestly, no one ever agrees on cinema taste).

Get watchin' Smokin D's Who Wrote This Crap?, and get watchin' some movies.
