My oscar predictions/Alice in Wonderland

So as you all know, the oscars are on Sunday. And like everyone else who loves movies, I will be sitting on the couch crying when my favorite actor or actress wins an award and yelling at the T.V when they don't. I have my predictions as to who is going to win and so I thought I would share my them. I felt like doing it in a creative way so I decided to make a video. My first video is my prediction as to who is going to take home gold for best actor:
Film Critic  There you can see the first of the seven video's I plan on making for the Oscar's. 

Also my first official movie review for the Gotham Blogger and my youtube page will be Alice in Wonderland. Directed by Tim Burton, Alice in Wonderland is a remake of the classic Disney Movie that will be starring: Johnny Depp, Helena Botham Carter, and Anne Hathaway. I can't say that I am looking forward to the movie, but since this is supposed to be one of the biggest movies of the year I will try my best to give you guys a good review. Here is the link of the Trailer: Alice in Wonderland trailer. Just go and click on Alice in Wonderland. 


Thanks for reading, and the Amazon movie pick of the day is:


Because I believe that Snow white is the best Disney Animated movie ever made.

Welcome to Gotham Blogger

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog, my name is Ashley Moore and I am from New York. Gotham Blogger will primliary be a focus on movies. I will review movies and rate them from a scale to one to tell. This blog will also focus on food and other daily going ons in New York. I have a bit of Fashion news and entertainment news on here, but like I stated above it will focus more on the reviews. This is my first every blog and I want it to be successful and active. 


So a little about myself:


I am 21 years old and right now I am a student. I will be starting a new program at Harvard in the fall, but until then I will be working and doing my blog. I love movies, the first movie I ever saw was The Color Purple and I fell in love with movies. I decided to go into movie critiquing because I was angry when Tim Robbins lost to Tom Hanks for best actor at the 1995 Academy Awards (Though I do count Forrest Gump as one of my all time favorite movies, I still think Tim should have gotten it for Shawshank Redemption). I was young, but I still knew what I wanted out of a movie. I used to watch the Ebert and Roper show and nod my head in a agreement at some of the reviews. So I think I should come in and maybe give my own take at what movies are good and what movies are bad. 


I don't expect people to like the blog nor do I expect people to read it. I just ask that if you do like it or you don't like it, tell me. I want people to read my blog and the reviews and say so maybe I won't go and see that movie. My dream job is to be a professional movie reviewer, and if that does not work out, I can always go to medical school. 


This blog will also feature some amazing offers by Amazon. I will post links of movies that I think are worth buying. Amazon is amazing with it's prices so I recommend that if you want to buy movies the best place to do it is at Amazon.com. 


So in honor of my first post the first movie that I recommend that you buy is: The Bucket list because I have always wanted to start a blog and so now I can cross it off of my bucket list.
