A wise article once stated: At its core, blogging is an outlet for creativity. And I am always open to new and creative ways of making my blog as entertaining as possible for my readers. So for the end of 2013, I’ll be doing something new and creative on my site – and I’ll be needing your assistance.
In this blog’s history, there are three specific lists (Top 10 Hip Hop Albums, Top 10 Best Movies and Top 10 Worst Movies) that I put up during the latter half of December. I’ve already posted my Top 10 Worst Movies list (with a special review of three entries from that list added for good measure) and I have yet to put up the other two before the end of this month – which is technically one week from now.
What I’m asking is, let me know in the comments below which films YOU consider to be the best of 2013, as well as albums (hip-hop or otherwise) you consider to be your favourite, and why. Now this isn’t a foolhardy attempt to have you dear readers do all the writing for me. I already have my selections for best films and best albums in mind. But rather than end off another year of blogging with me saying what films I loved and hated, and what music I enjoyed, I’m really curious to read your opinions on these matters.
Yes, I said “read”. In your comments, I want you to write at least a few sentences (keep it as simple as possible. Nothing elaborate) on your favourite films and/or your favourite albums. Think of it as your very own brutally honest mini-review. And trust me – it’s not as hard as it looks.
For the music write-up, I’ll post the “favourite album” comments that you wrote, and include my pick for Best Album of 2013 (and my nine runner-ups). However, for the movie write-up, I’ll post my Top 10 list of favourite films, and as a bonus, include YOUR mini-review into my list (with my comments added to it, if necessary). For example, if you commented that “The Smurfs 2” was your favourite film of 2013, and I, for some weird, “Twilight Zone”-like reason, thought it was the best movie for the year as well, I will add both your comment and mine into my list. And yes, even if your favourite film doesn’t make it to my final list, I will still include your comment into the write-up. It’s the least I can do.
I intend to post these write-ups by this weekend (or Friday for the earliest), so you have only a few days to comment before I add them to my lists. You can choose to comment on your favourite movies or your favourite albums or both. If you don’t have a favourite album or movie in mind, then you don’t need to respond to this request. But for those who do, please leave your comments, as I’m excited to see what your favourites of 2013 were.
Thanking you in advance, and wishing you a happy holiday, I remain Legally Black.
