About Jon
|
Let’s go to the movies! I love the movie experience, study what happens on the screen and am writing about it to help you with your movie going decisions. Hopefully something in the blogging of a film’s big elements – screenwriting, cinematography, directing, acting, visual effects, sound, and editing (and sometimes automobiles) – will help movie fans discern where their entertainment dollars should go. I’ve been blogging about movies on 99x.com since April 2008 and have been listening to 99x since moving to Atlanta in 1996. I’ve worked on the Olympics and short films that have appeared at Sundance and other film festivals in the U.S., Europe, and Australia. I have a Master’s degree in film from Florida State University and regard film school as one of the best experiences of my life.
I currently live in Atlanta with my wife and two labs; love baseball, music, family and friends, good food, and of course movies. Just to blog down thoughts from an eyewitness perspective I avoid reading other movie blogs or reviews on a new release until I’ve posted my own. All references to box office results or cast and crew are culled from boxofficeguru.com, boxofficemojo.com, or IMDB.com. Wikipedia is not used in the writing of this blog. Follow me on Twitter at twitter.com/jonlamoreaux for additional movie updates.

I had to leave out several really great films to get a list of 99. What you’ll find here is a very short list of films that aren’t necessarily the greatest films of all time but are films I felt were more memorable to me in the 00’s than others and contained strong entertainment value (favorites and opinion) in addition to the elements of directing, screenwriting, cinematography, editing, sound, and visual effects. Missing are films the likes of Traffic (2000), Almost Famous (2000), Gran Torino (2008), Grizzly Man (2005), 28 Days Later (2002), The Departed (2007) and The Hangover (2009). For my top 9 of the year, a surprise with Sherlock Holmes.

Re: Top 99 of the Decade, Top 9 of the Year
Can you tell me your favorite brand of shoes? Without a doubt, Nike shoes must be the correct answer. Nike, is considered as an all time, all generation brand of sneakers, that released a sneaker variety 'The Nike Air Force Shoes' in the year 1982. Still shining with its beguiling charm in the athletic shoe industry since its launch dated nearly 25 years back. Interestingly this shoe was named after the plane Air Force One, which carries the President of the United States. welcome to www.nikeidclub.com
