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!

Trailer of the Week: The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)


I went on a little family vacation last week so I just saw the first trailer of The Wolf of Wall Street- and man does it look great! With names like Scorsese and DiCaprio it was already one of my most anticipated movies for 2013, and now I cannot wait for November. We all know DiCaprio is going to be good, but I am really looking forward to the performances of McConnaughey and Jonah Hill. McConnaughey has put a nice run together lately, and Hill proved he can step out of the raunchy comedy roles with Moneyball.

It certainly looks like Scorsese will deliver another knock out movie. I'm sure there will be a lot of Oscar buzz surrounding this one.
