So it made me uncomfortable that they would play that story for laughs. I suspect that I'm not missing anything.balyienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13785839636620293326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823861851109958324.post-15074837494906316612014-01-03T15:36:16.218-08:002014-01-03T15:36:16.218-08:00I read a lot of reviews (fewer now that the paper ...I read a lot of reviews (fewer now that the paper doesn't carry as many) and I have two good podcasts I listen to: Movies 101 and Filmspotting. So that's how I find out about movies. Back before my mom started fast-forwarding through commercials as you do, I was sometimes surprised when she knew about a film. And it was usually because of the commercials, which are not at all a part of my world anymore.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07967372439743853589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823861851109958324.post-72894254114619193912014-01-03T11:32:09.531-08:002014-01-03T11:32:09.531-08:00It is interesting to me when you post current movi...It is interesting to me when you post current movies (I looked up the imdb to see this was released in 2013) that I have never heard of. I wonder if it is partially because most of my TV viewing is done on DVR and I fast-forward through the ads or if I just don't see that many previews anymore. Cool podcast information.Sara K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09228051158777330592noreply@blogger.com
