The Point is the Journey
What, exactly, you may ask, is the point of this?
I don't know.
But - if I were a betting man, I'd say...
I don't know.
Since I'm not a betting man, though, I can say that the basic premise is that I'm going to try and watch as many movies as possible this (2019) year.
A few ground rules - because who doesn't love rules?
1. It has to be a movie I haven't already seen. It's all about the newness (well, new to me.)
2. It has to be a feature length film. This may seem arbitrary to some - but the movie has to be at least 80 minutes long for me to count it (not counting commercials, for those that have them.) This means no TV specials.
3. Documentaries are OK, as long as they fulfill rules 1 and 2.
That's pretty much it.
So, let's see what I can do.
My goal is 500 movies for the year. Many will be terrible. Some will be incredible. Most will be.. meh.
As I journey through each movie, I'll leave brief thoughts here (mostly to help me keep track of them.)
If anyone actually reads this - feel free to send me your recommendations! I'll watch anything (especially if I can find it streaming for free/ w/ subscription.)
So.... Let's see what happens.
