Welcome to the New Filmociraptor!

Ok, so it's not really all that new, but it looks different and hopefully I'll be writing more so screw you, it's new. After my last redesign, not only did I get a job with CinemaBlend as a news writer for them, but I realized very quickly that the home page was a total pain in the ass to update every single time I wrote a new story. Research and internet surfing gave me a few ideas on what I wanted the site to look like, while keeping it as simple to update as possible.

Ultimately the goal is automation. I post a story and images, the website knows where they go and what to do with them. But that is a long ways down the road unfortunately since I'm not making any money with Filmociraptor and don't have the spare bling to throw at a web designer to write me a boatload of php. It's a sad story really, that of a starving artist, or in this case starving self-proclaimed wordsmith. Alas, this new look is what I've come up with for now until I can make the next step, or until I get bored of looking at it this way and redesign again. I'm a bit of a "User Interface" whore and since I'm in control, I might make a new one sooner rather than later.

For now though, I'm going to be doing my damnedest to update regularly, watch more new movies as well as movies for my quest, and review everything. Not to mention keeping up with the big news as best I can and updating the trailers page with everything I think you readers might find interesting. 

So read, link, retweet, Facebook, Digg, and above all COMMENT. I love hearing everyone's opinion even if it differs from mine and I'll respond to everything intriguing and well-thought out enough to pique my interest. Happy ranting!
