Blog Cabins REALLY hits the big time!

(I posted much of this in the comments section of the post, but felt it deserved a new post as well.)

Whoa. Just whoa.

Blog Cabins is currently (Saturday morning here in Phoenix) linked by IMDb. On the front page! The bible has recognized me!

This post, on "The 11 worst films on the IMDb Top 250," was made into their Daily Poll, which is featured about halfway down on the home page. As you might imagine, there's been some heated discussion regarding the inclusion of some of the films.

First off, let me say that I'm truly honored. Second, let me say to you, the angry reader - please don't take this list so seriously. If I have one gripe about being listed on the FRONT PAGE OF IMDB it's the fact that I've been misquoted/taken out of context. The title of this post is "The 11 Worst Films" (not "Which films should be booted") and it is entirely subjective, partly tongue-in-cheek, and not meant to be taken absolutely literally.

In short, of all the films that I've seen on the list (which is an admittedly low percentage), these are/may be my least favorite 11.

So, to anyone out there that may stone me for daring to put Groundhog Day or The Prestige on this list, keep in mind that I own and love Groundhog Day and that I generally liked The Prestige (though I still stand by my thinking that The Illusionist is better; it's obvious that I'm in the minority there).

Most of all, keep in mind that this blog is supposed to be fun!

Thanks to all for reading - especially those that were here all the way back when I was a simple, non-linked-by-IMDb blogger. :) Finally, if you're new to the site and are a movie blogger, check out my movie blog directory, the Large Association of Movie Blogs. I'd love to get more sites listed.

I am required by law to comment on The Sopranos finale

Unless you've been sleeping under a rock and/or just came back to the future (Hi Marty!), you know that The Sopranos ended on Sunday. As much as I would have liked to let this come and go, as a member of The Pop Culture Media Conglomerate (a fictional entity created by me, as far as you know), I am required to post my thoughts on the subject matter.

Again, in case you aren't aware, every critic alive, from newspaper to TV to the blogosphere to message-boardland has been trying to decipher what exactly happened to Tony Soprano when the screen abruptly cut to black. Did he get whacked? Did he simply have some pizza with his family? Did he get arrested? Did he go to Disneyland?

I can tell you with some certainly that it is none of those things. Here's my take:
