Links to 100+ indie film blogs (from 2009, needs to be updated)

I miss the old indieWIRE blogs pages (2006 - 2008 or so) - where there was a bigger focus on indie films, created through a collection of indie film focused blogs.  And Facebook doesn't quite work as a replacement.  Twitter is too short (individual tweets) and too large (at the moment, I need to search for best indie film focused Twitter pages) and also most of the info is not on one page (requires clicking on a link from one account, then going to another account/page for another link, etc - maybe there is a way around that, will look).  So something new has to be created for me to get a ton of indie film news daily.  This might be a starting point, a list of 100+ indie film related blogs that I created for my doc Indie Film Blogger Road Trip back in 2009.  Let's see how many of these blogs are still active, and let's see what new blogs need to be added to this list.  If you write an indie film focused blog, leave a link in comments.  I may create a publicly accessible blog reader page type (headlines & latest stories) blog for indie film related blogs soon (that's a lot of use of the word blog there :).  OK, the old list:

Written notes/review plus live video review of By the Stream (2025) by Hong Sang-soo

By the stream review - from Lincoln Center, NYC viewing - no spoilers The hype is real - By the Stream is very good by Hong movies standards and also normal comedy-drama standards. There were like 30-40 people at Lincoln Center for the 1PM Fri 8/8/25 (opening day) screening of By the Stream.  People in that neighborhood are serious about their foreign films. Cinematography is very simple, from a canon XA small sensor HD cam, I could see familiar details, how those cams film the moon, scenes at night - it’s like a 1980s or 1990s early indie cinematography style that we do not see much these days - works well for Hong’s movies. No color grading, very simple video/cinematography. A more fleshed out movie than some recent Hong movies. In the movie a skit is prepped, and we actually get to see it performed. A couple of serious issues are discussed.  Some unexpected, light things happen. It’s a comedy-drama chill hangout movie w/ creative South Korean people - good times. Probably o...

The case for using AI for indie film reviews (if tech is developed to be able to write good reviews)

Regardless of how it is presented to the public, everything in US film (and probably worldwide) - Hollywood and indie - is about money.  If you have the money, you can make and release films, buy ads in publications, and get reviews.  There are 200+ reviews for a mediocre Hollywood movie now at Rotten Tomatoes site - for the new Fantastic Four movie. At the same time there were less than 10 reviews for an indie movie that was playing at IFC Center in NYC last week. Outside of even IFC runs, there are 100s of indie movies - fiction features and doc features - that come out on VOD and YouTube every week these days that do not get reviewed and do not get any articles written about them. With some effort I and many other indie filmmakers are able to get some reviews for our movies. However, the vast majority of new indie films are not reviewed. Film is art, it is easier to make and release films now than it was in the past, and all films deserve reviews and articles about them. ...
