At least one of my movie reviews is. Of course Yog pointed out a typo that THEY didn't catch either. It's not the best review ever written, but I've never really done a professional writeup before...I'm sure I'll get better.

Didn't really make much on it, but who knows where it could lead if I pump alot of reviews out?

Awesome stuff dude! Way to go!

You should know that I picked up 3 typos though. All in the same paragraph. ;)

Some editing they do. Makes me look bad.

Hey, I'll edit for ya before you send it to them if you want!

Besides, it doesn't make you look bad...your writing more than makes up for it!

Meh, it reads kinda flat to me. I'll try to inject more personality in the future.

:\

Still it's something. Like I said, who knows where it could lead? When I make it onto rottentomatoes.com I'll know I'm on the rise. ;)

Speaking of Jonathan, he and I still occassionally trade emails. His long awaited book on the furor over TPM is about to be released.

My mom had one of her psych papers published, so yeah. But that's very cool. Having something published is gives you a sense of accomplishment, for sure.

Great stuff there CMJ. It is very rewarding to get something published. It has been a goal of mine for a long time. I thought the review was very good, maybe you can take Ebert's place at the Sun-Time ;)

I was looking for Jon at C3, but I didn't see anyone with a "Greatest SW Fan EVER, the rest of you SUCK!" t-shirt.

Hey I might even pick one up at the bookstore!

...and then I might even flip through it!

And then I MIGHT hold it for like five minutes, but then I'll probably put it back on the shelf. Is he self publishing?

I don't want to just keep linking to another site because that's not cool, but I have another review up. You should be able to find it if easy enough if you search for other articles by me on the site tho. :cool

Cool, schmool, you should be posting these the second you get them cranked out. Makes it easier for your adoring fans to follow your work. :smokin

Put in a review for one of the classics in the late 90's. Didn't pay as much this time(no doubt because the movie is so old), but I think it's my best review.

His best review yet. Although he was late with my cut so I had to slap that biatch Down! :hat

And for the love of Yoda people, do not confuse this article with CMJ's previous effort, Throwing A Sex Toy Party. Even under the pseudonym of Susan Rand, Court's prose is unmistakable!:evil
