Introduction

Hello America! Or whatever corresponding country you're reading this from. If you've found this blog, chances are you either know me, are about to know me, or have known me at some point. As an added bonus, maybe I know you back! It is a small world, or so they've been telling me. I really wish they'd stop, I mean let's face it, it's kind of redundant information at this point, I mean look at the facts; we all know the world is incredibly large and contains billions of people. I'd find an exact number but I'm too lazy to look up incorrect information on the internet.

If you've survived the above paragraph, congratulations, you've made it to round two, where I attempt to introduce myself to people who probably already know who I am. Cole Silver they call me. That's Silver, with an S and an I and so forth. I'm going to get this out of the way and tell you guys that's not my real name, it's a nickname developed out of high school. Back in Sophomore year, I created a facebook account to talk to a girl I met in Florida, and instead of using my real name, I chose to use a pseudonym because I'm interesting like that! The Cole part is very real, and if you're still curious about the Silver, I got it from quite the famous book. Let's see who can guess on 3! On your marks! Get set! Treasure Island. oh sorry, spoilers.

In any case, I moved to St. Charles Illinois prior to my Junior year. Upon my arrival, people I met had no other name to call me by, and so they just continued to call me Cole Silver after my trusty facebook page. I really just have no real reason to correct them. Still thinking....nope nothing. So it looks like you'll be calling me Silver too if you intend to follow this little blog of mine. While we're on the subject, let's talk business shall we?

Without boring you with too many superfluous details that I just do not have time for right now, I am a filmmaker. Be afraid. of my movies. In the future. or enjoy them, that would be great. Movies have been a part of my life since I was old enough to interpret meaningful conversations, which believe me happened at a staggeringly early age. Life simply never caught up with me, and ever since I first saw what could possibly have been anything from Star Wars to The Hunt for Red October I have been working slowly up the ladder of the film world until eventually, (presumably, hopefully?) I achieve some kind of success.

I have been told for far too long to create a blog, god knows who'll even read this, but what the hell! You only live once! Or twice, if you're James Bond. Or Harry Potter, I mean technically he, well, you know....spoilers.

So here I am! Beginning what may very well be a failed experiment in this chapter of my life. BUT, if you choose to follow me on Silverland, I will be posting movie reviews, book reviews, TV series reviews, general thoughts, and perhaps more specific things on all of the above. If there's anything specific anyone would like to see my thoughts on, send me an e-mail, comment, or contact me somehow, I'd say this is my first blog, but, (this likely being my only blog), I think the phrase "I'm new to this", clearly applies better.

To all of you out there who've found me, I hope you stick around, you may enjoy what you find.

I hope you have a great day, and a spectacular tomorrow!

Yours Truly,
Cole Silver
