Greetings followers of the Krypt. I hope everyone out there is keeping safe, limiting contact with the outside world so we can cut this contagion down to zero and get back to our lives. But until then, we have to think about ourselves and others. It’s been a crazy week, and it is probably going to get worse before it gets better. So please, stay safe.

In the “really real world”, I work in the corrugated box business, so I still will be going to work, at least for now. Sure, I’d love to be home too, but people need boxes to ship stuff, from medical supplies, food products, or all the other stuff being ordered from Amazon. So box makers are an important part of the world’s supply chain. Never thought I would consider what I do that important, being just “some schmoe at a box plant”, but it’s funny how and when we can learn those life lessons.

For those that are at home, there is plenty of time to watch those movies, read those books, work on projects that we just didn’t have time for.

To help keep our minds off of the real world and give you a little distraction, I’m going to post a daily question starting tomorrow asking about a favorite movie of yours. Yes, I have a little hidden agenda with this, but as it helps me, it will also give this community the opportunity have some of those conversations we would normally might have at a convention! As much negativity social media gets (which I’ll admit it usually deserves), this is the chance we can use it for a positive reason.

So starting tomorrow, I’m going to post a sub-genre and ask a simple question. What is your favorite in that sub-genre? All I really need is the title. But if you feel adventurous, and have the time, then you can explain why? What is it about this particular film that makes you consider it your favorite. Be as short or long as you want. Sound fun?

I know there’s going to be a lot of the obvious answers on some of these, but I’m hoping to get two things out of these. The first is for those that might be new to the genre, they might be able to get a few titles that now they will want to seek out so they hit the “classics”. And secondly, maybe even for us more experienced viewers, we’ll learn of a title or two that we haven’t seen yet. And that, my friends, is always a good thing.

So get ready. The quest(ions) starts tomorrow.
