As difficult as it is for me to believe, this blog turns twenty-years-old in 2025, in April 2025, to be specific.
That's a long time for a blog to live!
But I've never been able to close it down, and I've posted more than 11,000 times in 20 years. And, the blog has been visited by readers more than 11 million times in that span.
And, to my delight, advertising on the blog is still making money. Whoo-hoo!
Granted, this blog's heyday was likely between 2011 - 2019, a span when I was posting thousands (!) of times a year, but it is still going strong today, even if at a less vigorous pace.
When I started blogging twenty years ago, in 2005, I had just attended the Toronto Film Festival, and was hawking my two new books The Unseen Force: The Films of Sam Raimi (2004) and Best in Show: The Films of Christopher Guest (2004), and Revenge of the Sith (2005) was just premiering in theaters.
The year 2006 brought the arrival of my web series The House Between, and 2025 will bring my new (award-winning) show, Abnormal Fixation, so twenty-years brings a weird kind of synchronicity.
But to help celebrate 2025 and twenty years of blogging, I'll be highlighting here my most-read posts (reviews and otherwise), and counting down (or is it up?) to the blog's most-read post of all time.
