New things for a new year..

Hello everybody!

Do you like the new page and logo? It was time for a bit of a makeover since it is now officially 2013. We were kind of thinking "less is more."

That's not all that's new around here, though. This year you can still look forward to our regular posts and stories in conjunction with the TCM Star of the Month. You can also count on having special seasonal posts again this year like A Very Vintage Christmas. But we're excited to announce a couple of new ideas that we are going to test out in an effort to catch the attention of people who hold an interest in more specific genres.

The first one, inspired as you can no doubt guess by our most recent post, is a new segment titled Silent Saturdays. We often overlook silent films even though we love them, and we'd love to share that interest with you. So, one Saturday a month we will be doing a post on great actors, actresses, and their movies of the silent film era. We'll also post full features and short silent films in conjunction with that on our Facebook page as they are made available.

The second one we are going to do is Musical Mondays. It hasn't escaped our notice that musicals also tend to have their own special following these days because they are so often automatically dismissed and brushed aside unjustly for supposedly  being "corny" or "cheesy." Well, we love musicals (of course we do). So here's another chance to highlight a specific genre that isn't getting much love anymore. It'll work just the same as the other new segment--one Monday a month we'll highlight a different musical and why we love it, and we'll upload hit songs onto our Facebook page to go along with it.

We hope you'll be cinematic nerds along with us and get jazz hands over these new posts, as well as all the old ones!

hahaha...I couldn't resist. Punny.
