Brutally Blunt Blog Blustering #5: Stop the Planet of the Apes...I want to get off

I like this feature and have a number of requests for it, so expect to see them more frequently. Just remember - if you want your site Blustered, you better be a Blusterer, too. Two-way street! On to the rules.

There's a big, long intro to this, and I think it's important, but frankly I'm tired of looking at it. If you're new to this feature or need a refresher, click the label at the bottom of this post and see the first few posts. Otherwise, here's the basics:

What I'll do is list a site; you're asked to critique it. But here's the catch: to induce the most honest reactions, don't leave the comment using your normal alias/login - instead, go anonymous, and be as brutally honest (or complimentary) as you wish to be. Also, be specific, and naturally, don't be rude. If I deem anything inappropriate, I'll have no problem deleting the comment.

So, go to the site listed below, familiarize yourself with it for a few minutes, then come back and leave some constructive criticism and/or comments that you have.

If you're up for this treatment for your site (and you're a LAMB), send me an email with the subject "Bluster Me!" If you've already done so, no need to do it again - you're on the list, and these will be going up in order of when I received your email.

LAMB #258 - Stop the Planet of the Apes... I want to get off.

Site Name: Stop the Planet of the Apes... I want to get off.
Categories: Reviews, Editorials, General
Rating: PG-13... there is occasionally some swearing in the reviews but not very often.

What is the main focus of your site?
My site mainly contains movie reviews but I also occasionally post about some movie news I have heard.

What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
Mostly I just blog because I enjoy to write about movies, I am not sure I have any real goals beyond that. I do hope that people will enjoy reading what I have to write though.

Do you prefer an interactive 'community' for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers are the students?
I would love a much more interactive community on my blog. I love receiving and responding to comments on my blog.

How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
I have been writing movie reviews on various forums and websites for about 2 years now. In December I decided to move all my reviews to my own blog and start putting more effort into my reviews. I try to update my at least once or twice a week, however it always depends on how often I see a movie worth blogging about.

Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Ran (1985), Planet of the Apes (1968), M (1931)

How did you hear about the LAMB?
I think I originally found LAMB using the NetworkedBlogs application on Facebook but I have since seen it on several film blogs that I regularly visit.

Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that's not listed above.
None.
