We Can Do Bettah

This is a continuation of what I started here. We are now well into 2016 but I still have 2015 in mind. I saw 100 movies then but that just isn’t enough for me as I still want to see them all. I started to track the remaining movies below. I didn’t do very well at it this month but I hope to do better this month.

After looking at the past, it is time to look at the present. In order to beat my record of 100 movies, I have to start somewhere and here’s a recap of the movies I’ve seen so far in 2016:

I also saw Jane Got a Gun but this was post theatrical release and pre DVD/Blu-Ray release so I didn’t count it above.

I technically didn’t see these myself but my friend Dan from GetReelMovies.com reviewed High-Rise and Equals. Once the movies comes to Ottawa, I will be sure to see it myself.

At this point last year I saw 20 movies so far compared to the 71 I’ve seen so far this year. I was on pace to see 180 movies last month but now that has gone down to 170 which is still more than my record of 100 but I’m not exactly going in the right direction but luckily with Summer coming up, that will mean more movies and I can get that number up. Early on, I was thinking doubling my record but maybe that wasn’t realistic but it’s good to be ambitious. Whether or not I’ll actually get there, time will tell.

Of course I’ve seen non-2015 or 2016 movies and here they are below:
Taken
Taken 2
Rush Hour 3
Kung Fu Panda
Kung Fu Panda 2
Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle
Olympus Has Fallen
Divergent
My Big Fat Greek Wedding
God’s Not Dead
Snow White and the Huntsman
Alice in Wonderland
