I can't even imagine the results. I very possibly have my work done for the day, though.

There's no way I'd have the patience or tenacity to catalogue every movie I've ever seen. I wouldn't even know where to start.

Especially when you try to count movies from childhood.
I can easily think of way too many from just the first few years of memory I have to even want to think about finishing the list

killxswitch · 06-25-2012, 01:31 PM

Yeah that would be pretty much impossible for me.

I finished up with 1,119.

Probably still a few I'll think of.

I'm over a 1000 movies rated on Netflix. That's as close to an actual list as I'll get to.

How did you go about it? Is there a list of all the movies ever made? The best I could do is go to the Wikipedia pages for each year in film and count the movies I saw.

I'm going to try and see Raiders of the Lost Ark at my local old school movie theater today. I'm stoked.

Rosebud · 06-26-2012, 01:26 PM

Anyone seen Hanna or The Tournament?

I'm actually jealous. That's one my top five movies.

I love me some Indy, and I love when I get to see older movies on the big screen, especially because this is a private theater and they have couches and such. Great popcorn as well. I've seen all sorts of classics there, from Princess Bride to Breakfast Club to To Catch a Thief. Really changes the nature of watching the old movies, I love it.

Inconceivable.

I just went to IMBD, and searched actors and then scrolled down their list of films. You'd be surprised at what you remember once you get started, at least I was.

Trying to make a top 250 now, pretty much impossibe. Some films I have in there now I'm like no way is that in my top 250, but then I scroll my movies and I say, well guess so.

I like JGL and all, and I'm sure he had a ton of fun with the part, but I just did not care for Hesher.

Indy was awesome on the big screen.

If I had a time machine I wouldn't alter the world. I would probably just go back in time and watch movies on their original releases and go to all time sporting events.

If you know about a great sporting event, being in attendance would be cool, but you would know what's coming. I feel like that would cheapen the moment.

IMO the same as seeing a movie you love for the millionth time and getting as excited you did the first time.

I saw Ghostbusters on the big screen earlier this year and it was amazing. I was glad I did that.

Nalej · 06-26-2012, 10:36 PM

Hanna was okay, I agree. Nothing special. A good time killer while I was bored.

Bert Macklin · 06-26-2012, 10:44 PM

Never mind was a joke apparently :(

Bengals78 · 06-26-2012, 10:51 PM

If for some reason this film is not made, I will go burn down all of Hollywood.

One day, it will happen for me. And it will be legendary...

Anyone know what's going on with The Congress? I've been very intrigued by that project for a while. I absolutely loved Folman's Waltz with Bashir, and it being (loosely) based on a Lem work is another undeniable draw. Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info out on it, but some of the cast looked good and I'm very curious as to how the animation style works in this one. Especially with the live action split.
