Movie I’ve Never Seen #54, Where Are You?
Kids, I haven't been able to move down my list of Movies I've Never Seen since I did the post for #55: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. That was way back in the middle of December. Last year... The next movie on my list is a little film titled Judgment at Nuremberg. It is not … Continue reading Movie I’ve Never Seen #54, Where Are You?
It Struck Me as Funny
I’m writing this in the wee hours of the morning and I’m having a slight round of insomnia. In my fog I decided to watch the classic Rob Reiner film The American President and a line that was delivered made me laugh as if I’d never heard it delivered before. At the start of the … Continue reading It Struck Me as Funny

Some Thoughts After Seeing Scream
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.

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. So I didn't think it was worth it to put together a list of movies to anticipate in … Continue reading 22 Movies I’m Anticipating in 2022
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. And since I didn't see too many movies in that year, I didn't do a Top 10 at the beginning of last year. Thankfully, … Continue reading My Top 10 Movies of 2021
Some Thoughts After Seeing West Side Story
It happens every Christmas. I'm not sure when the tradition started, but at some point in our lives, my family decided to see a movie every year on Christmas day. Growing up, it was probably the one day a year when all four of us would go see something at the same time. Sure, there … Continue reading Some Thoughts After Seeing West Side Story
Some Thoughts After Seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home
I know this movie just came out a few days ago and I know it's probably the most anticipated movie to hit theaters in 2021. So I've been debating with myself whether or not I even wanted to write something about what I think of it. Being this fresh in the theater, I don't want … Continue reading Some Thoughts After Seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home
Die Hard Is a Christmas Movie
What makes a movie a Christmas movie? The answer is really in the eye of the beholder. It all depends on the standard by which one measures the Christmas in the movie. Is it because the movie happens to take place at Christmas time? Is it because Christmas decorations are obvious in many of the … Continue reading Die Hard Is a Christmas Movie
