Top 10 Recap:
Previous months’ Top 10 Most-Read Recaps and recent special features reigned
victorious in July. As the re-launch of the Quick Hit Movie Reviews and
Entertainment Inquiry each claimed 2 spots, while general movie reviews took 3
slots on the list. The complete playlist for #RKC’s presentation of Eclectic Selection #10
landed in third place.
For the second straight month, the #ThrowbackThursday and
#FlashbackFriday social media campaigns majorly rejuvenated interest in old reviews. The Shailene
Woodley starrer “White Bird in a Blizzard” zoomed to
first place by re-sharing it with the popular hashtag on Twitter and Google+. Clinging to a
close second was the #6 installment of the Entertainment Inquiry, which dealt
with questions surrounding the final episodes of “Game of Thrones'” sixth season and whether or not Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) betrayed Jon Snow (Kit
Harington) in the season’s penultimate episode. Likewise, the #5 E.I. heavily
featured the HBO series.
Also featured in that column and all Entertainment Inquiries
are insights into the content streaming on Netflix. So if you ever experience a time where you are unsure of what is worth watching on the
streaming giant or feel like you have watched everything already on it, the
Entertainment Inquiry hopes to supply you with some fresh ideas in a brief way.
Of exciting personal note is that the review for the
phenomenal film “Far from the Madding Crowd” made its third consecutive
appearance on the Top 10 list. In July it even rose 3 places from its June finish, going from #10 to #7. For all of you HBO subscribers, it is important to mention that
this amazing movie will be leaving at the end of August, so you need to
check it out while you still can.
Content Notes for the
Remainder of August:
- Those links to my “Game of Thrones” pieces for HiddenRemote.com
are coming. While the delay was unfortunate, the good news is there is now more
content to pore over than there would have been if it had been published
earlier.
- The Quick Hit Movie Reviews and Entertainment Inquiry
features will continue on a bi-monthly to monthly basis. If there’s a
particular theme or genre you would like to see included in the Quick Hits,
leave a comment below. Same goes for any question you would like to submit for
the Entertainment Inquiry.
- This month, two older features were reworked and re-launched
as one: the Top 5 and Best New Movie Bets. The new incarnation is a hybrid: [insert
movie] - the Top 5 Things You Need to Know. This gives Eclectic Pop a chance to
spotlight a movie of interest and supply readers with 5 fun facts regarding it.
The goal is to hopefully include trivia you won’t find on IMDB and offer a
different take on why you should see the film in the first place. Right now, the
focus of the feature is movies, though that could potentially expand to TV.
So that about does it, as always thank you for reading! To discover all of the posts that made July’s Top 10
