“One Large Popcorn, Please!”. Is a film review blog created by Tom Parry. His blog is similar to mine in that when we both review movies; we make sure to add our opinions along with commenting on the things that the movie is being praised or disliked for. His reviews tend to be longer than mine on average allowing himself time to give a fuller more descriptive summery of the plot. While this is helpful for a reader that might not have seen the film, I find that if you have already viewed the full movie the summery is a little unnecessary.
On Parry’s page he grades his films out of five stars, five stars being the best and one star being the worst. After viewing a few of his reviews I like this grading system and am considering implementing a similar idea on my page. Parry also chooses not to stick with just doing stand-alone film reviews. In 2019 as the year closed, he had blogs for the best and worst movies of the decade along with T.V and ranking his favorite stand out actors and actresses of the decade. Along with this he reviews older movies that are current to the movies coming out soon. If a marvel movie is coming out soon, he will review another marvel movie that relates to it.
While I do enjoy the fact, he reviews older movies he has not reviewed a movie that was made before 2013. I think this is a shame because there are a lot of movies that came out before 2013 that are still relevant and exiting today. “One Large Popcorn, Please!”. Is a great film blog with a lot of clever insight to films all set on a very user friendly blog site. I plan to take the many things I liked about this blog and perhaps add some of them into my blog, while learning from the things I disliked.
