About This Site

Welcome to Also Known As, a review site for book reviews and movie reviews. The site title
comes from the fact that for each book and movie reviewed, alternate titles are given. Some of these
are fun and silly titles, others are more serious ideas.

Online Absurdity
|
|
|
Do you ever visit sites like the Internet Movie Database or other similar sites
to find out information about a movie or a book you want to view/read? These sites are generally useless when it
comes to deciding whether I will like a movie, but what they are useful for is finding absurdly stupid statements
about movies. So occasionally you will find a section titled "Online Absurdity" in a review - this section
will give one or more stupid quotes made about the book or movie.

Run-on Synopsis
|
|
|
Whenever I go to the theater, I pick up one of those "coming attractions" brochures, so I can see what movies
are coming out soon. I've noticed that in these brochures, they always try to summarize the entire movie in one
single sentence. Sometimes these synopses are absolutely absurd because they try to fit so much information in one sentence.
In honor of these brochures, I have added a Run-On Synopsis section to the site. This is where I attempt to summarize the movie
in one sentence.
