Blog #1 Welcome to Top Movies - Your Go-to Movie Guide!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Welcome!


Hi Everyone! my name is Mairead and I am a 21 year old Business student from Ireland, currently working in Human Resources. I'm an avid movie enthusiast; I love going to the cinema, so much so that all the cinemas in my area know me on a first name basis at this stage!

I watch so many movies on a regular basis that I have an overwhelming urge to share my movie knowledge with anyone who will listen. I came across Steemit after my Boyfriend told me about it, and I thought that it would be the perfect place to share my thoughts. I am a big believer in the future of Steemit, because of the power it gives to people to get paid for their thoughts and opinions!


I am super excited to join the streemit world and I can't wait to share with you all of my movie knowledge (I knew it would be useful for something). If you like movies like me, keep an eye on this page and you will find a new movie you love! I am always searching for good movies so if you have any suggestions on what I should watch, let me know in the comments.

Every fortnight, I will be posting a list of my top twelve favourite movies for different genres with the aim of suiting everyone. There will be a wide range of genres, from chick flicks to disney movies. On the first day of every fortnight, I will post a list of my top twelve favourites and then write a blurb for each movie every day from the second day to the thirteenth day. On the last day, I will give my rankings and the critics rankings (Rotten Tomatoes and IMBD) for each movie, including my opinion of them. The idea is that you are not swayed by my opinion of the movie before watching.

Thanks for Reading


Thanks for reading my very first post on Steemit, I can't wait to share more movie posts with you - enjoy!

Thank you for the advice, I'll be sure to follow it :)

So being a movie fanatic myself, what is you overall, number one, favorite of all favorites, movie to see?

That is a tough one but I think I have to say Shawshank Redemption because I feel like the director brilliantly made the film so that the audience feels a huge connection to the main character, Andy Dufresne. You almost feel empathy for Andy that you can't help but go through the emotions with him on his long journey to freedom. What would be your favourite movie of all time? Apologies for not getting back to you sooner!

No problem. I rarely check my replies too so I understand. As far as ALMOST feeling empathy for Andy, there is NO 'almost' about it. Jails like this are all too common here in the states - even to this day. I like to rate my movies based on how much they keep me interested throughout the movie. Do I want to find out what happens next if I keep watching is my main factor. I guess the word that I am looking for is 'intriguing.' The 'Shawshank Redemption' does exactly that and I would have to say that it probably is also in my top 20. I'm not sure where exactly because I only really keep track of my top 5. My #1 you ask? Great question. This movie not only keeps your attention but also warps you into a new reality or dimension if you will. The acting is the best I ever seen from the 2 lead actors and Robert Zemeckis does a brilliant job of directing. The movie is also a trilogy. Any guesses?! lol. It's 'Back To The Future.' One, Two, and Three!

Hi Mairead,

Looking forward to your future posts. I love watching movies, especially movies with some deeper meaning or inspirational. Hope to find some quality movies in your list, will follow you:)

Thanks,
