Some Sort of Introduction

Perhaps someday I'll have readers beyond friends who occasionally check my blog out of politeness, who'll look back and wonder: who is this guy trying to write about movies? They'll probably be telling themselves that I contradict myself; that my occasional insights are marred by over thinking, under thinking, radicalism, traditionalism, poor writing, misinterpretation, and a sort of reckless zeal; that my voice is just another in an overwhelming cacophony that threatens to drown out any that will actually "advance" the art. Perhaps, though, they'll also have found some nugget, sentence, or even entire post that enhances their experience of watching TV, going to the movies, or (even better) thinking about what they saw.
