The Time Has Come

As expected, things have gotten busier as time goes by. So, as I also expected, I think it's time to drop the 500-day limit. I have no intention of dropping the list altogether, but it's just too rough to set these restraints on myself.

Tomorrow I'll get back to it, finishing my FIFTIETH film on the list. I'll also include my reorganized list thus far. So keep an eye out!

Another Delay

Just for those wondering why I've slowed down so much in the past week, I actually haven't. I've got some catching up to do on my pre-existing film knowledge. Apparently I had no childhood, because I've never seen an Indiana Jones movie. With the allegedly craptastic Kingdom of the Crystal Skull coming up on the list, I'm going to need to go through all of the others first. So that's going to slow me down in the next week.

I also am a bit behind because of my Netflix "schedule" being a bit wonky. One DVD that I ordered was scratched and threw stuff off a couple days, on top of no mail on Sundays. I caught myself up a bit in the past few days by watching whatever I had available to me via Netflix's streaming option. So, I'm ready to post Dog Day Afternoon and Full Metal Jacket once I'm there.

For now, sit back, relax, and read Laura's blog. It's pretty rockin'.

Delay

Sorry for the delay, folks. I messed up with Glengarry Glen Ross and somehow didn't have it on my Netflix queue. It will get here tomorrow. In the meantime, I've already watched and wrote about Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Crow and The Deer Hunter. Tonight, since I'm out of Netflix DVDs, I'll be watching the next that I can get my hands on, which is 12 Monkeys. I'll post my pre-written ones over time so as to avoid clogging your "Blogs I'm Following" page.

Also, I've decided that I'm going to try to work out my own order of favorites among these. It's not a perfect plan, but for now I'll post my top 10 of each 50 films I watch. If I deem it necessary to include more than 10 (for example, if there are 5 movies that didn't make the cut but would definitely replace some from previous "top 10s"), I'll do it.

Later, kids.
