Important Announcement!


This wonderful banner announces want we all have been waiting for: the return of the 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die Club. It will now be hosted by the nice folk at FilmSquish and will get back on his feet with the first entry ever of the book: Le voyage dans la Lune by Georges Méliès.

The so-called tongue in cheek Blog-A-Thon will start on November 24th and end on December the 5th.
Here you'll find Squish's original message to all the members (this could include you):

The response back from Club members has been amazing!

On the week of November 29th to December 5th, 2010, I will be hosting an good old fashioned Blog-A-Thon to re-inaugurate the 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die Blog Club.

After months of waiting for it to start again, I decided to just host the Club myself, and I'd love to have you as a member once again. I am writing you today to invite you to contribute a post (or posters!), on the first film on the epic
1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die List, George Méliès' "A Trip To The Moon" (1902) aka "Le voyage dans la lune." Since you're an old club member, it would be great to see your contribution!

One of the many great things about "
A Trip To The Moon" is that this short film is available everywhere for viewing. I've put a couple links for you of the complete film at the bottom of the page.

If you're interested, drop me a link or a line through my site (www.filmsquish.com), and feel free to spread the word!
