SDG Reviews: Revisited

Time for another one of my 'revisited' blog features, and this one is awesome. A while back, I wrote a feature on a blog known then as "Who Wrote This Crap?" (now known as SDG Reviews) by someone who is now a personal blogging acquaintance of mine. From you can see, I really did enjoy his blog overall and the reviews were top-notch (cinematically educational!).

Well, here we find ourselves back at his blog, and there have been so many changes that I wouldn't know where to start. I think a good place to begin would be on his name change. The writer, known then as Smokin' D and now as SDG, has renamed the blog something more simple and understandable: a wonderfully intelligent branding move.

With the site rename comes another great change: the blog layout has been redesigned. It not features a more cinema-style layout, with the red curtain theme that ties it all together. The blog's layout was good then, and it's even better now!

What can I say? Get watchin' SDG Reviews, and maybe you'll learn a bit about movies!

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).
