Gray's blog

Howdy,

So now that I’ve started blogging a bit more recently, I thought it was about time I come up with some weekly ritual-ish type of thing to do so that I get an incentive to post interesting content.

What I came up with, was ‘watch the week’. Basically I will post and embed what I’d say are pretty damn good shows/movies. You’ll see them all for the most part here, with no ads or popups.

For each one I post, I’ll do about a paragraph review to go with it. Just so you get a feel for what your about to watch. I’ll also give each a rating out of 5.

So then, I’ll get started with the first one ever:

I’ll open this one with a pilot episode I just finished watching:

Show: White Collar
Hulu’s Description: When the trail of elusive criminal “The Dutchman” deadends, FBI Agent Peter Burke teams up with a most unlikely partner to catch him; the imprisoned Neal Caffrey: master criminal, con man extraordinaire and Peter’s most accomplished collar.
Hulu Rating (At time of writing): 4 out of 5.
My Rating: 4 out of 5.

This episode is a very interesting pilot, for what looks like it will be a good season. Coming from USA network, which is starting to push some good ideas for new shows, this looks to be another good one.

For this one, I’ll go with a movie I just got around to watching based on reviews. It came out in 2000 but I hadn’t heard of it and don’t know how many people have seen it:

Movie: Boiler Room
IMDB Plot: A college dropout gets a job as a broker for a suburban investment firm, which puts him on the fast track to success, but the job might not be as legitimate as it sounds.
IMDB Rating: 6.9 out of 10
My Rating: 4 out of 5.

This is a very interesting movie to watch, the story moves quickly and is narrated in a style similar to ‘Fight Club’. As a forum member put it, ‘It’ll make you go out and want to make a million dollars.’ Well worth the watch.

Anyways that’ll wrap it up for this first post. Just keeps getting me thinking what I should do with this blog. If you got anything you think would be cool to watch / listen to, feel free to drop a comment!

Ciao,
