Default Looking for a Movie/Television/Video Game reviewer.

I'm looking for a freelancer to write long form reviews for the imfdb. They should have a firearm angle but most importantly should be entertaining. I know we have a few writers on the forum...

email wreelnilsu@garrifulio.mailexpire.com with a sample of your work if you're interested...

So you want someone to review the articles on the site? I like the idea, but hopefully we'll all be able to control our egos if our pages are given low scores. But it'd be cool if at the top of the pages a reviewer could rate the quality of the article from 1-100, which could direct viewers to better quality pages and help them avoid the crap ones.

Or I could just have the wrong idea entirely.

I think bunni is talking about reviewing the actual movie/videogame/show, not it's page

I have some problems with grammar, so I might not consider this job

- How long do you mean by long form?

- New media, or old as well?

- What would be the frequency?

Do you need real-life experience with firearms to be paid for this review position? I'd like to write reviews for the games I've made pages for or contributed heavily towards. Just look to the pages now for S.W.A.T. 4, Silent Hill 3, or No One Lives Forever for samples of my work.

When I said "new media," I just meant stuff as it comes out. A review of the Expendables, for example, and not one of Rambo II. That could take forever.

I know that I have asked about starting an Official IMFDB page in order to counter act the MW2 playing idiot who is using that title.


As far as what i would want that page for would be things like film reviews, things like brief informational pieces like MPM's history of the M16 in cinima, site updates and soforth. Unfortunatly Bunni is the only one with the Authority to say yes and I don't have the money to get such a project past the pipe dream stage.

As far as writing up traditional reviews go I am not very good at typing.
