I have been a big fan of the Scream franchise from the start. I remember seeing the first movie in the Grandin Theater in my hometown when I was just a junior in high school. That theater, by the way, if you aren't familiar with Roanoke area landmarks is one of those really old theaters. … Continue reading Some Thoughts After Seeing Scream

22 Movies I’m Anticipating in 2022
The last time I did a list like this was in January of 2020. Pretty sure only a couple of those movies actually released in theaters that year. Several of those movies, I still have not seen.

My Top 10 Movies of 2021
This is usually an annual tradition for The Confusing Middle. Because, usually, I see a lot of movies throughout the year. But that didn't really happen in 2020... for obvious reasons.

Being this fresh in the theater, I don't want … Continue reading Some Thoughts After Seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home

Those Made-For-TV Christmas Movies
I just don't get the appeal. I can't say that... Which means I should go back and erase that, but I'm leaving it for dramatic effect. No, in part, I do understand the appeal of those made-for-TV Christmas movies. It's the holiday season and who doesn't enjoy a feel good love story that follows a … Continue reading Those Made-For-TV Christmas Movies
