Film & TV on DVD - John Doe Film News & Reviews

 
Greetings Film Fiends and welcome to John Doe's Film Blog. 30 years of dedicated celluloid obsession has meant that I have seen a few films. Drawing attention to some of the lesser discussed gems that I love. Cult classics, obscure curios and quality genre pictures. This blogs purpose is to translate some of my passion for these films and with luck, inspire you the reader to go check em out.

John Doe Goes Live on the Wireless

Welcome to the John Doe Radio Show


radio mic
Testing, Testing...1,2,3



After years of toiling away online and developing a modest audience for JDMFilmReviews.com this creative outlet has finally opened up further opportunities for John Doe to do what he loves best, talk film.

Thanks have to go to our own Pop Culturist Mr Nice Guy whose surprising offer about a month ago facilitated JD’s transition to the radio waves. Airing on Tuesday Nights between 7.30pm-8pm on Hawkesbury Radio 89.9FM in Sydney Johnny has now been chatting on air for four consecutive weeks.

Utilising a 10 minute window your very own Doe voices his opinion on New Release films in Cinemas and on DVD. Posting a companion review for each new movie that he critiques the list so far consists of Tropic Thunder, Gone Baby Gone, The Godfather and Wall-E.

Obviously this is just a slice of shameless self promotion, so to be blunt - all those in the area please tune in tonight, where the topic will be an overview of the life and films of Paul Newman.

A quick note of appreciation to all the regular readers and visitors that have made this possible - Bryn, Cib, Morgan, Lilla, D Armenta, Damo, David, James Rickard, Dusk Devi, David O Connell, Nathan 1, Kylie W and many more (You know who you are)...Let the quest for world domination begin.

ALRIGHT!

That's what I'm talking about... a radio show to talk movies. Fantastic stuff JD.... going commercial. I'm extraordinarily pleased.

Those of you that know JohnDoe, he's the ideal sort for a radio show...

Don't stop blogging, JD, and plug your site on the radio!

Well gang, the show went great guns...not hard when talking about something I'm so passionate about like Newman.

Um sorry, but this comment of yours deserves a return comment:

I'm almost tempted to get you to become a guest writer on my blog.

Made me laugh David,

I meant criticise my REAL work...as opposed to a speck blog in the vast realms of the virtual world. A mere outlet of trivial opinions.

Discussing other peoples celluloid and digital achievements with a god like belief I know ART! (Whilst I have only one short film attached to my name...and even that was in tandem with a more creative being than myself.)

In short I want others to talk about my own films, novels and comic books etc...

Don't know why I felt the need to kill the mood, after all no one is harsher critic of me, than myself and I.

I read this late last night and was very disappointed that I had missed the program... I'll do my best to remember next week!

I look forward to hearing your voice and understanding more of your motivation for writing those excellent reviews...

Cheers to John Doe!

Can't get the show here in the States John Doe, but good luck anyway! Having been interviewed so many times, myself, I know how much fun it can be to put on the headsets. You have something of a "bully pulpit" so use it wisely! Congrats!!

I am ashamed to say I missed it. I was keeping it in my mind, then my man walked in and said "Put The Simpsons on" and I totally forgot....But next Tuesday, I'll try harder. If I forget again you have permission to swing by and smack me.

That would be fantastic, my radio is crappy. Not that you should cater solely for me but I thought I might as well comment...

Breaking new ground usually has extraordinary rewards. As Cibbuano suggested, is online radio an option?

Well done JD.

I've tried many a time to tune into MNG on a Tuesday night but I just can't get reception from where I live.

Might have to go for a drive tonight and see if I can catch it in my car.

CONGRATULATIONS JD,

I wondered where you had gone?

Now I am only sorry I cannot get that station in Qld, will go and find a world radio that may pick it up perhaps?

I wish you every success with it.
