It is May 31st. That means tomorrow begins our second annual June Swoon here at EYG.
Last year, after the end of the year-long DailyView, the June Swoon became a thing. Every day I watched a movie that I had not seen that was released in the previous year (2021). That went so well that I decided that this would be a yearly deal. So with the June Swoon 2 ready to begin, I will lay out the rules.
First, I will watch at least one movie every day for the entire month of June, from June 1st to June 30th. Next, each film will be a film that I have never seen before and must have been released in the year 2022. I will record these films on this post through the month.
2022 saw the record set for the most films reviewed in a single year at EYG, and yet I have compiled a large list of movies that qualify for the June Swoon 2.
The first couple of days of June will be tight, since school is just ending and I have started The Daily Zone, which has me watching and writing about episodes of The Twilight Zone daily as well. Once school is out, the schedule opens up dramatically. So the next two days will require some close, specific scheduling, but it should be doable.
So… I will be starting the first of the June Swoon 2 tomorrow afternoon.
