What is the main focus of your site?
This question presupposes that my blog has a main focus. I’m not sure it does. As a nonprofessional film critic/blogger I have no assignments to work or deadlines to meet, meaning that I can write reviews of anything I want, whenever I want, in whatever form I want. I may post a 200 word review of some obscure silent film one day and a 1000 word review of the latest blockbuster the next. So, I would say that my blog is distinctly unfocused in the sense that I post reviews solely according to my whim.
What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
My goal is a modest one: to make all of humanity conform to my opinion.
Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers the students?
Where are these readers of whom you speak? It’s impossible to interactive with oneself or to teach without students. So, if anyone is reading this, stop now, and proceed to my blog immediately.
How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
I have been blogging for about 2 years. Unfortunately, I have a full-time job (wait, I mean fortunately) which consumes much of my time, and frankly, I’d rather spend my free time watching movies than writing about them. As a result I don’t post updates nearly as often as I’d like. Nevertheless, I do manage to scribble something every so often. To be more precise: at the time of this writing I have made 77 posts in 23 months, an average of less than three and a half posts a month.
Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Sherlock Jr.
Once Upon a Time in the West
Chinatown

Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that's not listed above.
Do you believe in God?
No. But I too seek escape from harsh reality, and that’s why I’m a practicing cineaste. Cinema is my religion, the movie theater my place of worship.
