The Movie Blog in The USA Today
I know I'm a total geek, but this totally made my day. The good folks over at The USA Today have featured The Movie Blog today in their "Hot Sites" section. The little blurb they wrote about us is:
There is a place for the movie pundit who has an opinion. That place is the Movie Blog. Reviews, comments and critics are all you need to plan your next visit to the theater.Well that was a nice way to start my day. I know I'm a loser... anyone else would see that and think to themselves "that's nice"... but me... I'm freaking out and calling my mom to show her.

Your bandwidth is gonna get raped , but thats still cool none the less.
I remeber when I wrote a letter to Circus Magazine(shut up) and they printed it. I freaked out and showed everyone. I can only imagine how you feel.

I am stoked that you got in circus.
Do you have the article still?
If so - can you post it here?

Wait a minute: you guys get free passes to see excellent films at festivals, and now you're being covered in USA Today, and we're supposed to CONGRATULATE you? Man, I'm way too jealous for that.
So, mmmm, well, yeah, congrats, I suppose.
(No, really, nice one fellas).

Keep your feet on the ground all you guys! ;-)
