always fun participating in various blogathon because it allows me to expand my movie watching horizons. I try to do one post a day for the duration of each blogathon which is only problematic when there are review caps 🙂

I think you have hit on the one of the best aspects of blogathons – that it expands your horizons and improves your own understanding of films. I’ve discovered films I never heard of but also films I never DREAMED I would have enjoyed and yet was pleasantly surprised.

thats the beauty of movies/
I love finding new things to watch and its always hit or miss whether I’ll like them or not , but when I find a true gem along the way, it makes all the crap I watched beforehand so worthwhile because those films are the ones we are seeking in our journey

I didn’t mention the blogathon because frankly I’m so late I don’t know if it even counts.

Hi Margot! Of course it counts and I’m sorry I didn’t see this sooner. Just going through a dark period at the moment. Thanks so much for the wonderful effort and please forgive me for not seeing it sooner. Hope all is well and will add your entry to the final day of the blogathon.
