I Love That Blog Post #8

Bloggers just kept on blogging this week.  Lots about Prometheus!  Here's my highlights:

Hell of a lot of Prometheus reviews out there.  Enjoyed this one a lot.  Fogs’ Movie Reviews had this to say: http://fogsmoviereviews.com/2012/06/09/prometheus/

I think this is the second in a new series from Sati.  Cinematic Corner continues comparing films visually; this time Amelie and The Artist http://cinematiccorner.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/visual-parallels-amelie-artist.html

Fantastic piece from Top 10 Films on Prometheus theories that certainly answered a few of my questions http://www.top10films.co.uk/archives/12343

Rodney at Front Room Cinema discusses film marketing and audience anticipation http://www.frontroomcinema.com/midweek-mumble-the-prometheus-effect-does-expectation-kill-the-film-experience/

Ruth at Flixchatter has a link to 500 free online movies!  http://flixchatter.net/2012/06/14/500-free-movies-of-various-genres-to-watch-online/

Kristin at All Eyes on Screen casts the movie of her life, you should all definitely give this a try! http://alleyesonscreen.com/2012/06/14/if-my-life-were-a-movie/

Another great one from Sati (now I know this is short for Satine).  Cinematic Corner has a very interesting list of film facts about her http://cinematiccorner.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/100-film-facts-about-me.html

If you haven't come across any of these on your blogging travels, please give them a look!
