 What does a movie site look like when you don't want anything from the studios but the movies? Formely Dangerous written by Drew McWeeny is dedicated to films, the stories they tell us, and the people that make them. It is comprised of movie reviews, comparisons, opinions, and recommendations of what to watch, read and even play. There’s usually a theme in every piece he publishes alongside new releases. Drew writes long essays analyzing films, where he seamlessly compares and transitions from one to another. Usually, when a remake of a film/book/comic is released he provides an excellent comparison to the previous one(s) and illustrates the film culture of the time. Drew provides honest reviews, and well-researched information on the industry of films, without the usual Hollywood drama. As he’s been in the industry for over 25years, he’s well known and sometimes even feared (hence the newsletter name).
