(THE FINE PRINT)
About the page...
First of all, welcome to Fuzzy Films! Those
of you who knew us from our Movie Page days will notice a few changes...mostly
with the addition of frames to the site, and of course the move to fuzzydog.com.
Hope you like the changes and enjoy the site...in the meantime, here's
all that stuff I wrote about the page awhile back...it all still applies (I
think)...
About the movies...
How do I decide which movies are reviewed
and which aren't? Well, I've got a two part answer:
- Current Releases
- I've gotten to the point (I never thought this would happen) of
reviewing every new release I see, as well as home videos that roll my
way. Whether I review a particular movie will just depend on what
I happen to watch, so you won't see every new release on this page
(I know, you're crushed...) Newly reviewed videos will go straight to the
"Index of Past Reviews" section...
-
- Older Releases
- The Movie Page section called "Movie Ratings
Index and Site Links" contains ratings for a number of older releases.
For the most part, these are films I saw prior to creating this page...I've
given those films ratings, but there isn't a full review for most of them.
As I continue to build on this page, I'll probably write
full reviews for a number of these films, but some will always remain as
"ratings only."
About the ratings...
Five stars, four stars, one star, what does it
all mean? The star-based ratings you see only give a general picture
of my opinions on a film. Different films are made for different
reasons--some are created to make us think, some to make us laugh, and
some simply to scare us out of our seat. A good film, in my opinion,
is one that does what it sets out to do cinematically. So, don't expect
me to criticize Weekend at Bernie's for not having a cohesive storyline--that's
not the point of the movie. That'd be like criticizing Schindler's List
for not having any good musical numbers.
About the Links...
Many of the films on the "Index..."
have links to home pages or web sites dedicated to those films. Some of
these are studio web sites, but many others are personal home pages created
by fans who just can't get enough of a particular movie. Frankly
I think the personal pages are a lot more fun, but unfortunately they're
also harder to keep track of. Pages are moved, closed, or redone
with no warning...so, if you see a bad or broken link within these pages,
please let me know so I can remove or correct it. Also, if you know
of any good movie site links that I could use, please send its address
my way! I could use the help!
About your input...
It's encouraged! Please don't hesitate
to say what you think...as you'll see from some of the review pages (Romeo
and Juliet and Dear God, for
instance), second opinions just make things more interesting. The
green tickets (see below) link to a form you can use to send us your thoughts,
and they can be found at the end of each review. Input forms are
also available at the bottom of the All Time Favorites,
Quotables, and Misc.
Mail pages. As you can see, responses are posted onto the page;
if you have something to say and don't want it posted, just let me know
and it won't be...
Are you done already?
Just about. First of all, if you've actually read this page all
the way down to here, I'm very impressed. I don't think I could've
done that. Second, as long as you've got this much tolerance, come
visit our main home page. Ooops...actually
I changed my mind...DON'T visit our
main home page. Just leave this
link alone! Don't go
there!!!!
(Is the reverse psychology working?)
Happy viewing!!!!
