Welcome to The Movie Tree

Hello and welcome to The Movie Tree. Like most people, I am a big fan of movies. I, however, take movie watching to the extreme. In 2012 I watched 242 'new' movies (Yes, I track how many I watch). When I say new movies, I mean new to me. This number does not include the movies I watched for a second, or however many, time. You might be wondering how I was able to watch 242 'new' movies in 365 days. Well, I tend to watch movies in segments. I'll watch a little during lunch, a little more while working out, then finish it up during my early morning shift of feeding our baby boy. It's probably not the way the director intended me to watch it, but it allows me to watch more movies! I also have a wife that enjoys watching movies as well.

I am also big on rating movies. Usually I rate movies on sites such as IMBD and Film Affinity, but I will share those here as well. I rate movies based on a 1-10 scale ( you can see my translation of the scale on the Rating Tree). I'm not big on writing lengthy reviews, but I will from time to time. You will also see Top 10 lists, weekly recaps of the movies I watched, and my reactions to upcoming films and movie news. Feel free to agree or disagree with any post- I welcome the discussion. Enjoy!

Movie News: Hot Tub Time Machine 2


I have mentioned before on this blog that I am a huge fan of Hot Tub Time Machine. It was one of the best comedies I have seen in recent years; I had a blast with it. So I was pretty excited to here that there would be at least be one more installment (no surprise- every movie is getting the sequel treatment these days).

Then the news came out the John Cusack may not return and would be replaced by Adam Scott. The rest of the gang is set to return at least. Adam Scott is a nice edition, but it is a bummer Cusack will not be back. How can you continue the story without the whole gang? We may have our answer as yesterday Rob Corrdry gave us a brief plot synopsis on their next adventure. They will be traveling to the future to see Adam Scott, who is Cusack's son.

I'm still excited about the movie, but I wish they were going back in time again. One of the big appeals of the first installment was that they went back to the '80's (an underrated decade). Regardless there should be plenty of comedy flying around. I'm sure Chevy Chase will make another appearance.
