ah fuck it.
anyway, been a long time since we blogged and rolled kids, but I'm back, and I have a interesting sideblog type idea to add to my time here.
While watching Jeopardy the other night (yes, I know. It's the only thing other than Red Sox and Pats games that I watch with anything approaching regularity) one of the kids mentioned that he had a list of 1001 movies to watch before he died.
What a fantastic idea, I thought to myself. I should do that, seeing as I watch movies like it's my real job.
So I've decided to list all the movies I've ever seen here. Get a total, and then try to get to 5000.
Why 5000? Because fuck that low aiming kid on Jeopardy.
As it stands, I'm sure I've seen in the neighborhood of at least 1000. I mean, I've watched tons of them, all the time, since I was a kid.
Still, this needs some ground rules.
1. movies that I kinda recall seeing in the background while I was doing something? Not counted
2. Movies I saw 15 years ago, and don't remember at all? right out.
3. Movies I've seen bits and pieces of, but never the entire thing - also not counted.
That should be enough.
So, I'll get a list going, and update every once in awhile when I've got more to add.
Here we go:
