I get distracted very easily. When I'm writing a review, researching an article, or I'm supposed to be working, things catch my eye and tempt me away from what I should be doing. Most of the time, these distractions are interesting and movie-related so I decided I would start making a note of them and then write up a post every once in a while. That way, my distractions are actually being put to good use on my blog... unless I get distracted while writing up the post about my distractions, that might cause some sort of paradox! Anyway, I'll worry about that later. Here's what I've been distracted by lately:
