I find that when it comes down to sitting and watching a film, my other half and I are always far too polite to choose a film. Either we’re tired of our collection, just don’t know what we want, or don’t want the responsibility of putting the other person through an hour and a half of something they might not like.
We both enjoy watching movies though and both wish we did more of it. The only way this is going to happen is if something takes the decision away from us. Enter the top 250 films!
What are the top 250 films?
We’re using the top 250 according to the IMDB. This list does change when new films come out, however we’ve printed a copy (as of 18th Jan 10) and intend to stick by this otherwise it could just get too confusing.
There are quite a few films that we’ve already seen on the list, but since we’re doing the challenge in full we will be rewatching them. As best we can we’ll be doing it in order, however it may not always be possible to obtain a film in time, etc – or films may show up on the iPlayer as the first film we’ve watched since beginning the challenge did. We’ll be relying a lot on borrowing from friends and our local Blockbuster.
Where can I keep up with your progress?
I’m going to keep this blog post updated for now, but hope to put up something more permanent in the future.
