Love Movies? Read More Movie Blogs!

Have you watched a short film today?

I thought I’d switch things up in this week’s edition of The Post.  Normally, I like to feature independent film projects from around the world.

By the way, click here for tons of shorts, features, documentaries, trailers and more.

Today, I’d like to focus on Movie Bloggers.  Every morning, I wake up and immediately visit 3 movie sites:

  1. Collider
  2. /Film
  3. Joblo

These are my favorite sites for the latest movie news, trailers and reviews.  I love these sites because they don’t just report the news and move on, they react and offer opinions.  Many of them are in line with my own.  When something big breaks, you know these sites are going to go further than just copying and pasting a press release.  Just look at how many Star Wars articles they posted in the last week.  Tons of analysis.  Great reads.

However, the internet is full of bloggers who are passionate about movies and post thousands of incredible articles every day.  I visit them too and if you love movies, you should check them out.  In today’s edition of The Post, I’d like to share some of my favorites as well as a couple places where you can discover new movie blogs to bookmark.

THE LARGE ASSOCIATION OF MOVIE BLOGS

The Large Association of Movie Blogs (LAMB) is a massive database of movie blogs.  I’ve written about this site a few times and happen to be LAMB #457.

The Lamb is a community that opens the door to thousands of great blogs about movies.  The site also runs a yearly blogging awards feature appropriately called The Lammys. Recently, they completely redesigned the site to make it even easier to find movie blogs you’ll enjoy.

TOTAL FILM

A few years ago, Total Film published two articles you’ll be sure to love if you’re a fan of movie blogs:

Total Film Calls The Athletic Nerd A Cool Blog To Visit

The Athletic Nerd Independent Film Blog

Everyone who starts a blog feels a great sense of pride when someone links to them or mentions their site in any way.  They are tiny victories and for me, they are the fuel that keeps me writing each and every week.

Today, The Athletic Nerd was mentioned in Total Film’s weekly newsletter as a cool film blog to visit.  I’m also a part of their extensive ‘600 Movie Blogs You Might Have Missed.’

If you haven’t seen Total Film’s website or the extremely popular magazine be sure to check them out here.

Thanks to Total Film for the mention and to @WatchALotMovies for the heads up.

The Athletic Nerd by Jason McKinnon

Total Film created a list of 600 movie blogs and not only did The Athletic Nerd make the list, it made the first page!

I created this blog in September of 2009 and after 5 months of blogging, it’s nice to see links like this appearing around the net.

Of course, this just means I have to work even harder to get more links!

Check out the list here!
