5 posts I loved writing that you may have missed:
1. 10 movie pets you'd love to adopt
2. Black Swan - Possession theory, step by step.
3. Sisterhood in film
4. A Guide for Alan Rickman's movie partners.
5. The Tale of Michael Fassbender and his many on-screen deaths.
So here we are, exactly one year later. I started Cinematic Corner and at first I simply wanted a decent place to post my reviews at, since last.fm is primarily a music website. So I posted a bunch of stuff and then started coming up with new features, new ideas for lists etc. and I started to explore the blogosphere.
I do realize that if someone clicks "review" label they will see a mess of epic proportions - there are so many styles there, from comic book to illustration. But I love changing stuff around here and I probably spend 70% of time working on the blog on adding effects and editing the images. But "working" is a wrong term - I really love it.
There were so many different headers over the year on the blog, here are some of them:
I'd like to thank everyone who visited the blog - whether you ended up here by searching "jean dujardin sex scene" or "idris elba naked" (which is interesting because not once did I post such picture, in fact if such picture exist, please, send me an e-mail) or you clicked the link on imdb, tumblr, twitter, facebook or any other site that led you here. Whether you are here for the articles, reviews or just pretty pictures - it's all appreciated.
I especially want to thank follow bloggers who visit the site regularly and run some of my favorite blogs out there - Alex Withrow, m. brown, Diana, Nikhat, Sofia, ruth, Ruth Elizabeth, Fogs, Dan, Sam, Alex Thomas, Stevee Taylor, Andina, Josh, Lesya, Vern, Andy Buckle, Nick, Scott, Amy, Steven, Eric, Chip, Mettel Ray, Chris, Stephanie, Jaina, Mark, Pete, Wilde.Dash, lightscamerareaction, asrap.virtuoso, Dave, iluvcinema, Mette, Cherokee, Courtney and Tippi, M. Hufstader, Max and probably many more people I'm forgetting now because of my crappy memory.
For all of your continuous support - thank you, so very, very much!
Happy blog birthday!
ReplyDeleteHappy one year! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks! You're closing on to your one year anniversary too, right?
DeleteYEAHHHHHHH!! :D
ReplyDeleteHere you go Sati, I got you a cake!

Here's to many more years of awesome coolness at Cinematic Corner!
Awwww, thank you! :) That's one colorful cake! ^^
DeleteHappy anniversary!! Before this week, I didn't realise that your blog was younger than mine. That's probably because you write like a pro!
ReplyDeleteThe most amusing keyword people search for my blog is probably "Feet". Its always [insert actress name]+feet. Didn't know there was so many people with feet fetish. Then again it could just be Quentin Tarantino.
Anyway, here's to many more years to go!
Thank you so much! I was writing for a long time before I set up this blog, that's why I had so many reviews to publish at the beginning :)
DeleteHaha, that's probably him! I'm often horified when I look at the keywords that people search for.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And wow, that's an impressive post count for one year, I am reaching 400 myself and I'm almost three years old (talking about my blog like it's me, hah)!
ReplyDeleteMany awesome things for next year and many years to come!
Thank you! I just added a lot of previously written stuff so that people had something to read and the review database was bigger :) Nowadays I post maybe 4-5 times a week.
DeleteCongratulations Sati. Only one year and you've achieved so much? I'm glad to be able to follow you properly now. Here's to another great year ahead for you. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Great to know the follow by e-mail thing is working! :)
DeleteCongrats on one year, Sati! I love this website and your articles are a regular visit of mine. Keep up the excellent work.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteCongrats on the one year mark! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I intend to do so! :)
DeleteHappy one year! Keep it up, I love reading your site.
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteHappy blog-a-versary!! It's astounding to me that your blog is only a year old, you've accomplished so much and truly Cinematic Corner is definitely one of the brightest corners in the cinematic blogosphere!! I LOVE your super creative headers Sati, I love how you keep switching 'em around. Congrats again and here's to more years of blogging!
ReplyDeleteThank you ruth! That's so sweet - you always say the kindest things! :)
DeleteHappy Birthday! Wish you many more years of fun movie blogging!
ReplyDeleteTHank you so much!
DeleteA big congrats and Happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Thanks for dropping by too - just discovered your blog today!
DeleteCongrats. Here's to another year.
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteAw thanks for including me in your thank-you list! Loved Cinematic Corner since its inception, and shall continue to be a loyal reader and beyond! Congrats on your first blogging birthday.
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome! You run one of my fav blogs out there so I had to :)
DeleteThank you so much! ^^
Keep it up, because your blog is my all-time favorite <3
ReplyDeleteOh my, this is too high of praise! Especially since there are so many great blogs out there!
DeleteCongrats!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
DeleteHappy blogging birthday! Great idea to post all your headers.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yeah, it's like a compulsive disorder - I change those so often :)
DeleteHappy Blog-a-versary and yes, those stats are impressive. But, that's you. So... :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've been getting a lot of visits this week so I'm hoping the blog will continue to attract more and more people and not just guys looking for strange keywords :)
DeleteHappy blog birthday! Love reading your reviews, articles, etc. And your blog is absolutely gorgeous. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm changing the style of reviews a little yet again, planning to start with Looper review tomorrow :)
DeleteWell, first...congrats on kicking ass for a full year. Your blog is inspiring not only its design, but some of your content is truly fucking epic. Your attention to detail is incredible. My posts take me hours and I'm just writing boobs and boner over and over. I can only imagine how long you work on some of these. It's very impressive.
ReplyDeleteAnd second...screw you! In just a year you have eleventy-billion more posts and views than me! Oh, right. It's cause your blog rules. What. Ever.
Seriously, congrats. (and thanks for the shout out!!)
Thank you! It's one of the few things I do I actually enjoy so it's not that hard. The frustrating thing is when I keep writing and writing and I feel I'm never going to stop, like with my Looper review which i'll hopefully finish for tomorrow.
DeleteHaha, oh come on! None of my reviews are as funny as yours! People should be reading your blog every day - it just amazes me you have so few comments, that's why I vow to comment under every post of yours! :)
Congrats on hitting the one year mark, Sati! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I can't believe it's already been a year :)
DeleteSati, you kick so much ass. So, so, so, happy for you!
ReplyDeleteWe need to team up on something already!
*happy blog-birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu*
Thank you so much! Let me know about that double-review! :)
DeleteHappy birthday, Cinematic Corner! Hope the blog runs long way and more success in the future. This blog is one of my favorites, the beautiful images is one of the best thing in it. I can't imagine how long you must retouch them. I know it took a lot of dedication to made them per post. So, great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out, I feel privileged to have you come regularly to my blog. I love the second from top header. I remember my first year of blogging I kept changing my header too ahah. Nice to see you work so much to it.
Going to check out your favorite posts!
Thanks! I love editing photos, finding meaningful screenshots and making them slightly more pretty is one of my hobbies, I love it, probably waaaay too much than I should :)
DeleteI love your blog, you have so many great ideas and your fashion posts are seriously inspiring!
Thank you :)
DeleteCongratulations, Sati! You really have achieved a lot in this past year, you're such a pro. Plus, October must be a month where blogging is in the air - you have your birthday, I have my birthday, and Lime Reviews and Strawberry Confessions has her birthday. Haha. Anyway, I love how you always change your headers! I used to change mine lots, too (I will be doing that again soon). Yours are super cool! So yeah, keep up the good work :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Really? I didn't even know that, do you plan something special? You should - is it 3rd or 4th birthday? It's impressive how long you've been blogging, especially since you are so young! I'm practically old and rusty comparing to you :)
DeleteThank you! I usually change my headers from something with many movies in it to one specific one when I watch a movie I fall in love and I'm seeing Killer Joe soon, so there may be a change happening soon :)
It'll be my third. You ain't even old and rusty! Haha.
DeleteHappy one year, thanks for the shout out!
ReplyDeleteSome bloggers fall away after a few months, you are very dedicated, and your passion for cinema shines through on this wonderful blog of yours!
Thank you!
DeleteI've been writing about movies for 8 years now so yeah, this may be the only area of my life I'm dedicated to, actually ^^
One year and so many accomplishments Sati, I am so proud of you...and a little bit jealous, too, you've done so many things, I should be more active :) Happy one year anniversary and I wish you many more to come! Thanks for the mention, you are one of my favorites,too!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Your posts are lovely just post at your own pace! I'm approaching OCD with my posting fast :)
DeleteI hope this never becomes repetitive, but Cinematic Corner is one of my favorite websites. Not just blogs, but sites period. I love everything about it - its look, style, flow, tone - everything.
ReplyDeleteI firmly believe that movie blogging has been elevated in the year since you started this site. Keep rockin' and rollin', Sati!!
Thank you so much! You always say such nice things, I'm very flattered since not only you are one of my favorite movie bloggers but you're also a great film maker in making! :)
DeleteCongratulations on 1 year!!! I can't believe it hasn't been longer, the amount of quality posts on this site is just crazy.
ReplyDeleteI love not just the content on this site but the artistic edge it has, the GIF's, the header's, the humour. Keep up the good work :)
Thank you! I hope I'll continue this blog for many more years :)
DeleteCongrats Sati!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary! I'll second what Withrow has said -- you're one of my favorites. I just love your content and artistic ability. I hope you keep writing forever, even after you become a famous, expensive lawyer with a creative streak.
ReplyDeleteTo many more!
Thank you! No worries, I'll be modest, poor public prosecutor :)
DeleteI am terribly late with this. But CONGRATULATIONS! One year is an epic milestone in blogging terms and hope there's loads more years to come over here :)
ReplyDeleteNo worries! Thank you so much!
DeleteHappy blog birthday, and many more!
ReplyDeleteamazing first year! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteI know I'm a thousand years late for this, but still --- Happy Blogversary!
ReplyDeleteIt's quite spectacular what you achieved in so little time - such a interesting, rad looking site with quality (and fun!) content. It really shows you love this and how much time you put into Cinematic Corner. And I think that what draws so many people, and keeps them around, engaged. Your blog is one of those sites that I visit (by actually writing the url!) every day, because it's so damn good. Even when I don't agree with you, I always enjoy and am always interested in reading your opinion. And I really mean this, Sati, amazing work.
Don't worry about that! Thank you!
DeleteI needed a hobby with this tiresome studies I have, I'm so glad I started this blog, it's so much fun even if it takes time, it never exhausts me.
Thank you, that is so sweet! LOVE your site too, I enjoy every single post there!
Congrats! I know what you mean about the search terms. Remember my Movies Where Charlize Theron Does Not Get Naked category? Well, the combination of the words "Charlize Theron" and "Naked" has given me a bunch of unexpected hits, and I expect a ton of disappointed searchers.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yep, that sounds like a popular search term :)
DeleteHappy (very belated) birthday to Cinematic Corner, Sati! I had no idea that it has only been going for a year. You really do have an excellent blog to be proud of, well done!
