Gotta move this month, so there's no way in heck I can achieve this kind of goal. Might have to try it later in the year.

I think my record is in the 40s, but averages around 30 in a month (approximately one a day). I keep track of them in the track the movies you watch thread.

EDIT:
Nah, last October I saw 57 films, so that's my record.

[prkprkprk]

I'll try.

April 1st:
Babe (9/10)
Babe: Pig in the City (8/10)

[Spicoli]

We will take your word that you have 6.33 Hours a day EVERY day to put aside for this..

Why such a low goal? Really 100 movies?

Call Guinness and find the record for movies watched straight, I bet you could beat it if you weren't a a meow meow


You guys better start racking up four a day in the beginning so you don't fall behind.

Too bad this isn't as entertaining as watching the Gallon Milk Challenge.

[Kevin Holly]

Good luck man.

I myself probably am around 25-30, which I think is not bad.

[legendarymatt92]

Wish I had the time to do this, but just can't watch 2/3 films per day to reach this target.

I wish you luck, though

Nice! Good luck to ya.

I love doing things like this. I'm currently in the middle of a Hercules and Xena marathon. Prior to that I watched from begining to end everything Star Trek - all series and films. Took me a little over 14 months and I only had one day where I did not watch a Trek show (third day in). Have fun.

I have adult ADHD so I get into these things and then get distracted. I had been watching all the movies on both AFI top 100 movies, but took a break, then I started to watch Star Trek TOS from the beginning since I had never watched it, but that to is now on hold. So maybe I can stick this one out, and watch some of the movies on my AFI list.

[Monarch_of_Media]

No chance I'll be able to do 100 in April as I have school after this week, but I have been writing down every movie I've seen this whole year. Since January 1st, I've seen 128 movies, and that's not counting the ones I watched more than once. For Example, I've seen 500 Days of Summer 7 times since January 8th.

Nonetheless...I'll give it a go to see how far I can get:

*Ratings out of 5 stars*
April 1:
1.) The Poker House(2008) - ****1/2
2.) Tin Man Part 1(2007) - **** (Yes it's a TV series, but it's like a movie)
3.) Brick(2006) - ****1/4
4.) Psycho(1960) - ****

April 2:
5.) All-Star Superman(2011) - ***1/4
6.) Jumanji(1995) - ***1/2
7.) A Night At The Roxbury(1998) - *3/4 (Bad Movie, but I had fun with it)
8.) Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog(2008) - ****1/2
9.) A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas(2011) - ***3/4
10.) Punch Drunk Love(2002) - **3/4
11.) Jeff, Who Lives At Home(2011) - ****1/4

April 3:
12.) [500] Days of Summer(2009) - *****

I don't know why, but I think it's pretty hilarious how you have 1/4,3/4 of a star ahahhaha. I don't care for N@TR much either, it didn't live up to the hype.

I know a lot of people don't rate to the quarter of a star, however I have always thought the more defined it the review is, the better representative it is.

It's not that I hated Night at the Roxbury, It was a bad movie, but I was entertained by it. However as someone who is a striving to one day become a real critic, my rating is based on the movie itself first. I can enjoy a movie as a fan too though I have just taught myself to distinguish the two, think with 2 sides of the brain at the same time if you wanna call it that.

I'm 18, graduating High school in June, in between a full time internship, and a job. Spring Break this week and my original plans fell through. What I watch this week is going to be it mostly, other than what I usually do, I usually try to watch 1 movie a night when I'm in school, 2 on the weekend days(If I don't have anything to do) so no chance I get 100 by the end of the month.

However I already keep a log of every movie I watch in the year anyway, doing April's on here can't hurt.
