| Site Rating | R |
| What is the main focus of your site? | Film reviews, both current and classic. Horror and science-fiction focus for the most part (I have another blog that focuses solely on animation), and I am crazy about monsters, though I will talk about any genre or topic that interests me. Still, there is a nostalgic through line that connects all of my interests together, and this is another focus of the site. |
| What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog? | I am a freelance editor and writer by trade, and my various blogs are a way for me to discuss topics that I don’t get to otherwise discuss professionally. I would hope to get a chance to write about film and animation professionally. |
| Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers the students? | I would prefer a far more interactive discourse between my readers and myself, but it seems to be the other way most of the time. I get a lot of visitors to my site, but it is hard to get them to comment, whether it be positive or negative. |
| How long has this site been active for, and how frequently do you post updates to your site? (Note: sites must be active for at least three months for entry to the LAMB.) | I started The Cinema 4 Pylon site 11 years ago (2005) and was a member of LAMB for a good while. But I had a lot of medical issues the past few years and stopped blogging completely for a couple of those years. After some starts and stops, I started blogging again full-time last September in 2015. I try to post at least once or twice a week, sometimes even more, sometimes less depending on how busy I am on the other blogs. |
| Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more). | King Kong (1933) Duck Soup The Seven Samurai |
| Name a movie you hate!! | Batman & Robin |
| How did hear about the LAMB? If it was a LAMB, do you recall which one? | That was so long ago when I first joined. It may have been on Twitter. I meant to rejoin a few months ago, but forgot that I needed to build up a few new months of blogging consistently before I could. |
| What is your obsession with King Kong? | Simply put, the 1933 original is my favorite film of all time, since I first saw it around the age of 10. Never get tired of it, and yeah, I write about it a lot in a regular series. |
