John Tries to Blog or What To Blog When You’re All Blogged Out.

One of the aims of this blog (I think) is for you, the anonymous internet reader (A.I.R. for short), to get to know us, the hardworking and charismatic “Relapse” crew, a little better. Hopefully you’ll find us interesting enough to make a habit of checking in from time to time. You know, get to know us. Learn to love us. Send us a little money…

So the problem becomes, how much do I let you into my life A.I.R? This is the Internet after all. How vulnerable can I become before it starts getting, you know, weird.

If I tell you something personal but mundane, I remain safe but you go away unsatisfied. For instance, I don’t care for bread. It makes me thirsty. See, you don’t care. Conversely, if I tell you something overly personal, which I won’t (nice try) you’re entertained but I start getting troubling emails.

It’s always seemed to me that blog-people know few greater pleasures than making lists of things. I think that’s pretty much the point of the internet. So as a fair and relevant compromise, I’ve decided to make a list of some of my favorite movies. I thought I’d try to post a post that might inspire other posts.
I’d like to see some lists from other “Relapse” crew members.
Here is mine:

-The Chungking Express
-Back to the Future I & II
- Yojimbo
- The Empire Strikes Back
- The Apartment
- The 400 Blows
-The Big Lebowski
- Blade Runner
- Yi Yi
- Robin Hood (The Disney version with the Fox)
