Steve Kaycee has been on a tear (especially in 2023 and 2024) with writing multiple blog entries in a single week and doing so for multiple weeks.
However, he has grown tired of constantly converting fairly new blog entries into non-menu website pages, as he feels that A] Doing so doesn’t give such blog entries the proper exposure that they deserve and B] The constant impromptu pre-writes take their toll on him more and more.
But luckily, the impromptu pre-writes have (and will continue) to dwindle, as will the early non-menu website page conversions. And of course, with the latter being said, this page comes into play once again, as Steve Kaycee has a blog entry that he wrote August 19, with it being the first phase of placing movies on the Spider 25 page.
You can see it below.
“Post-Revvin’ For 2,047!: Part 10”
Before COVID, Major League Baseball rosters had active 25 players on them for the most part, which is the format that I had originally had in mind for filling out the Spider 25 page. So, with that being said, I have decided to utilize that exact format, as I have picked from a pool of 62 Flickuum-bound movies in Tier 7 to round out those 25 spots and did so, based on fit.
To find out which 25 movies have been chosen for the Spider 25 page, simply view the chart below:
Movie | How it got an overall guaranteed Flickuum spot |
Ride ‘98 | This movie serves as a reminder that Idalis DeLeon deserves to be a part of Flickuum lore. |
A Most Violent Year | This movie is the perfect one to evaluate on a Saturday afternoon. |
Tarot | This movie defied expectations, by giving a vibe that is similar to the 2017 version of “Flatliners”. |
Vicious Circle | This movie is a combination of three enshrined Flickuum movies in “River’s Edge”, “The Girl On The Train” and “Approaching Midnight”. |
It Ends With Us | This movie does a masterful job in avoiding the stereotypical label of “chick flick”. |
Night Swim | This is a cross between the Michael Vartan-Nadine Velazquez movie “Within” and the 304th enshrined Flickuum movie “Super 8”. |
Spy | It’s going to outrank “Get Him To The Greek” and it has evaluation line-up versatility. |
At Eternity’s Gate | This is one of two collaborations between Willem Dafoe and Oscar Isaac, and it’s significantly the better of the two. |
Fast Girls | The presence of Lily James puts this movie over the top. |
Benjamin Troubles | This movie has a vibe that is similar to “Paint It Red” and Mishel Prada brings the eye candy appeal to it. |
6 Month Rule | The criminally under-utilized Natalie Morales gets a substantial role and thrives in it. |
Prisoners | This movie is the best directorial effort by Denis Villeneuve and it has evaluation line-up versatility. |
Harold And The Purple Crayon | This movie is the “Barbie” of 2024, due to its two worlds collide aspect. |
Pokemon: Detective Pikachu | Howard Clifford (Bill Nighy) has motivations that are a little more specific than the ones of Joc Goddard (Harrison Ford) in Paranoia. |
Boundaries | This movie has the potential to outrank the set to be enshrined movie “Beginners”. |
The Bikeriders | This movie is perfect for leading an evaluation line-up. |
Hail, Caeser! | The whimsical odes to old Hollywood work perfectly in this movie. |
Always Be My Maybe | This movie features amazing chemistry between Randall Park and Ali Wong, and it has evaluation line-up versatility. |
Blue Beetle | The chemistry between Xolo Mariduena and Bruna Marquezine puts this movie over the top. |
New Jersey Drive | This movie ensures Sharron Corley his place in Flickuum lore. |
300: Rise Of An Empire | This pulls off the unique feat of being set before, during and after the events of its predecessor. |
Love Spreads | Eiza Gonzalez is more outgoing than usual via this movie and that’s completely refreshing to see. |
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever | This movie is the perfect way to honor the memory of the late Chadwick Boseman. |
Thicker Than Water | Isabel Arraiza is the engine that makes this movie go. |
Life As We Know It | This movie is perfect for a Katherine Heigl vs. Nadine Velazquez March Madness style battle. |
Well, the active roster aspect of the Spider 25 page is now rounded out. But just like with the Eastern Bluebird 53 page, two more phases of expansion will go into effect for the former of the two pages.
Tune in tomorrow to phase two.
