A Few More Changes

I hope you've had the chance to check out the new Gummi Popcorn YouTube channel. It is growing fast and being updated frequently with tantalizing trailers. So, make sure to check in often. In addition to the new YouTube channel and the obvious change in design, you'll notice a couple of other changes at Gummi Popcorn. Thanks to the wonders of technology, I've taken up the habit of streaming my videos from Netflix. While this format certainly has its share of problems, it does have the overwhelming advantage of convenience. As one of the aforementioned downsides of this new format, special features are not available. Therefore, you'll notice the "DVD features" list will no longer appear with each review. Also, as I imagine nobody is terribly interested in whether I sat in the theater with a lap full of popcorn or on my cozy couch with the cat, the "format" details will disappear.

There will remain, however, the all-important "hottie rating", the "alternate recommendation" and the IMDB link at the end of each review. Naturally, you'll still find the genuine wit and quality insights you've come to know and love baked into each review.

(Feel free to bitch about your problems with Netflix in the comments, btw.)

It's ALIVE!!

It's been a few years and many life changes since I first started Gummi Popcorn. For a while, I puttered around with various software, trying to find something sparkly and dynamic. On the up side, I've reserved the Gummi Popcorn username on just about every online software I can think of. On the down side, no reviews ever got published and no designs were ever completed. Amazing how absorbing the internet can be. Amazing how time-consuming real life can be.

So, I'm going to attempt to bring this poor thing back to life in one form or another. I really do enjoy writing and I really do like to voice my opinion! For those of you who follow GP on Facebook - thanks!
