The 10 Best Movie Sites You Should Be Visiting

toptenmoviesites

Not counting ours of course, we decided to scour the web(we know these sites by heart) and give you a list of the 10 best movie sites for you to visit when you aren’t coming here.

10. GordonandtheWhale.com

gordonandthewhale

Probably the least known site on this list, I met these guys at SXSW this passed year and instantly fell in love with their site and enthusiasm for movies. After checking out their content they really specialize in Video stuff, from reviews to interviews their stuff is really entertaining.

09. HorrorMovies.ca

Even though these guys are from Canada we wont hold it against them! Honestly though this is my absolute favorite Horror site on the web, and back when we ran HackSlashDead.com we sourced them alot. Definitely check them out if you want to keep up on Horror stuff.

http://horrormovies.ca

08. ScreenRant.com

screenrant

A fellow Dad movie blogger like myself, Vic runs one great movie site. Screen Rant provides movie reviews, news, and a slew of other great content. I definitely check them out on a regular basis for news, trailers and casting info.

http://screenrant.com

07. ComingSoon.net

comingsoon

Although I dont frequent Coming Soon all that often it is still a great resource for news and exclusive stories. These guys have a lot of access that I could only dream of.

http://comingsoon.net

06. Collider.com

collider

Collider is the place you want to be for set visits, breaking news, and hardcore reporting! Frosty(Steve) was dishing on ‘Wolverine’ reshoots when I first met him at Sundance last year and from that point forward I dont doubt anything he posts.

http://collider.com

05. FirstShowing.net

firstshowing

I dont want to go the way of the cool kids and call Mr Billington a fanboy, he just really loves movies! You will get movie reviews, interviews, and some exclusive stuff from time to time. Dont expect to go to see site and read reviews as if he was a 40 year old balding movie critic, instead expect the point of view from a geeky twenty something and you will enjoy yourself.

Alex is also responsible for bringing the Bob Stencil hijinix to Sundance last year(and the 3rd floor of the condo).

04. LatinoReview.com

latinoreview

The Latino Review guys do alot of script reviews which is something that no other site(that I know of) is offering. So if you want to know how that new Eddie Murphy movie is going to turn out based off the script alone(and not the fact that its starring Eddie Murphy and directed by Brett Ratner), they will be able to tell you.

http://latinoreview.com

03. Cinematical

cinematical

The “Big Dogs” on the list, these guys are owned by AOL and usually get all the “exclusive” stuff when it comes to posters, first images and things of that sort. They also have a few really great columns on their site, one of which is run by Elisabeth Rappe.

http://cinematical.com

02. FilmSchoolRejects.com

filmschoolrejects

Neil and his group of Austin hipsters(i love you guys) bring some of the best movie columns that you can read on the web, they also do some pretty killer interviews and rock festival cover like no one else. Not to mention Neil is one of my fellow blogger condo housemates from Sundance this past year, and hopefully next year too.

http://filmschoolrejects.com

01. SlashFilm.com

slashfilm

Pete is loved by many, especially women, and his site has some really kick ass content. He also won every movie blog award you can possibly win for 2008 so that helps his case as being #1 on this site as well. 2 columns will keep you coming back, Video of the Day(just like it sounds) and Cool Stuff(a great movie geek column for shirts, gadgets, products, and everything else that is “cool”).

  5. I love FSR mostly for their T-Mobile advertisements. Otherwise, the site is pretty much useless.

  6. Everyone knows the real reason to visit Latinoreview is because of that really swell El Guapo guy! He's the best and is really….wait, I'm posting this under my name aren't I…damn…

  7. Shit, I bet Berge is drinking away the pain right now.

  8. all the websites on this list are top notch! great list Scott!

  9. Hey Scott,

  10. Thanks, guys. :) That's a nice compliment to have today!

  11. http://www.chrisjonesblog.com best indy film maker blog out there, he was shortlisted for an oscar, and just won the Producers Guild of America award for his short film "Gone Fishing" his blog tells EVERYTHING about how he made it, funded it, and he video blogged all the important moments like winning the Rhode Island Int Film Fest (oscar qualifier) and has won over 23 Int Film Fests…for those who want to make films.

  18. Nice List brother! I want on it for next year!!

  19. Mother of Bebo says:

    I like Shock 'til You Drop for my horror news. I just link directly to their news archive (http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/archive.php). They're pretty good when it comes to trailers and hi-res pics as well as staying on top of the latest horror news. But I'll check out the Canadian site you guys listed. Thanks! The list is awesome. I personally subscribe to /Film and First Showing's newsletters and both sites NEVER disappoint…

  21. Dude, thanks so much for the Cinematical shout out — I finally found the one dude who actually reads us! And I like how you called us "big dogs" even though I usually feel like a midget compared to some of these other sites. Good stuff!

  22. I really love FREE, so it's gofobo,Filmmtro, filmetro and the FilmFanatic.com for me. When I really wont intelligent and thoughtful conversation on movies it is TCM.com, turner Classic Movies is the site for Bogart,Cagney, Karloff and a large vault of classics.

  23. GioFace says:

    no joblo? come on now

  24. Ridhi Gupta says:

    Hi!

    This is a great list! Thanks for the recommendations!
    There is also one other website that I follow regularly, and feel deserves to be on the list. http://culturazzi.org/ – they specialize in foreign films, my personal favorite kind of cinema, as well as classics, independents. Their reviews are great too.

    Worth a look!

    and hey Erik – I read Cinematical too! One of my favorites!

    Good work guys..keep going!

    Worth a look!

    Thanks for the recos once again

  25. This is pretty dead on. These are the exact order in which I check the movie blogs through the fabulous Google Reader (best tool on the net!!). Love Peter's site and have been an avid reader for years. FSR has some great humor in their posts, and now they have added a touch of sexuality (Beth!!). Great list, great sites. Can't wait for Comic-Con season.
