I’ve
enjoyed participating in numerous blogathons over the past few years, but as
much as I’ve enjoyed taking part, I always felt something vital was
missing. Then it dawned on me – not
enough Jeff Goldblum. With that in mind,
I’ve made the (foolhardy) decision to host my first blogathon, featuring one of
my favorite character actors. So, how do
you get in on the sweet, sweet Goldblum action?
See the guidelines below…
Blogathon
Q&A
Q:
When does it take place?
A:
August 1, 2 and 3. No need to reserve a
specific day. Just be sure to post sometime
within this timeframe.
Q:
What do I write about?
A:
Anything that strikes your fancy, as long as it’s Jeff Goldblum-related. Reviews, retrospectives, gifs, dirty
limericks, whatever – it’s all fair game.
If you need a refresher on Mr. Goldblum’s many roles, visit his IMDB
page.
A:
Are there any rules?
Q:
I’m not much for rules, but please be sure to link back to this site in your
post, so readers can enjoy the other posts.
Other than that, have fun.
Q:
I really want to review The Fly, Jurassic Park, etc…
A:
No need to “claim” a film title. No
first come, first served here, ‘cause that’s how I roll. If there’s more than one review of the same
flick, that’s fine, although I hope I’ll see reviews on many different Goldblum
movies.
Q:
How do I sign up?
A:
If you’re interested in joining, let me know by commenting in this post, or
contact me via Twitter at @barry_cinematic, or email at barry_cinematic@yahoo.com. Remember
to send me your preferred name, website, and subject (i.e., review of _____,
bio, etc…)
Q:
But I don’t know what I want to write about. What should I do?
A:
That’s okay. Take your time. Just let me
know sometime before midnight, August 1st, so I can update the
blogathon roster.
Q:
How do I let the world know about the Goldblumathon?
A:
Use one of banners below (linking A: back to this blog), or feel free to make
one of your own. Invite your friends, acquaintances
and enemies!

Time to dig in his catalog and see if there's anything that Starkwell and Lovelock might want to watch...

Sounds good! I've added you to the roster. Happy to have you aboard.
DeleteI'll pitch in. I'm doing a review for Starbasegeek.com on Buckaroo Banzai later this summer. Jeff Goldblum plays as a member of the hero's group.
