Category — In The Year 2000

The first movie I’m watching in my time machine that takes me back to the year 2000 is the classic, Next Friday. Next Friday was top of the box office charts for two weeks in January 2000. Release on January 12, 2000, Next Friday grossed $57, 328, 603. Although it ended up being 45th on the yearly box office report…right behind Snow Day.

Remember, I’m choosing the movies that we collectively chose in the year 2000. Don’t blame me for our bad choices ten years ago. Here’s your preview…

As football season has already began to draw to a close, I have been pondering what my writing project shall be. The main purpose of this blog is to keep me in the practice of writing. Football was an easy choice because it would keep me posting at least once a week. Now that football season is coming to a close, hopefully not sooner than later for Texans fans, I need to find something to keep me in the practice of posting regularly. If not this blog could turn into me writing about my own life and short stories that are hit-or-miss once every three months.

I’m pleased to announce that I will dedicate at least the next six months to reviewing the box office hits of the year 2000. That’s right, I will go back in time to ten years ago and watch the movies we loved…or at least paid money to see. What became of the actors and directors? Did the movie reflect the time? Is the movie still relevant, and so on. It should be fun. Or at least interesting. I’m giving it it’s own category for easy reference, it’s under Films in the new subcategory In The Year 2000.
