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.

Why are you going to write it down?

[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

[Tenchi7]

I am a Night Auditor at a hotel, so I usually have 6-7 hours to kill every night. So i think If I want 2-3 movies a night 1-2 per day I can reach it.

[Elandyll]

Interesting challenge (as one said, probably mostly aimed at the unemployed or odd-employed).
I like Chris's idea to give a rating to the movies watched actually.

Just a few pointers to give as references

April: 30 days, 4 full weeks Mon-Sun + 2 days

Average number of movies to watch per day: 3.33 (basically, if you see 3 one day, you probably should see 4 the next).

Average number of movies to watch per each of 4 weeks: 24 movies per week (with 2 movies per day to watch during the last 2 days)

If you "only" see 2 movies a day during the week, number of movies to watch during each week end (saturday/ sunday): 14 movies

If you "only" see 3 movies a day during the week, number of movies to watch during each week end (saturday/ sunday): 9 movies


Good luck to all who choose to partake in this

April 4

I'll give it a try mainly because I just finished my Harmony Korine phase of movies, I'm beginning with my Akira Kurowsawa, and as many from the "recent haul" thread might know I'm attempting to see all of Martin Scorsese's films as well.

[Tenchi7]

I still have about 40 odd movies left in my AFI Top 100 movies(both list) to watch. So that will help me also. I am gonna be taking a staycation next week, so Ill watch a lot movies then.

[Ill_Be_Back]

April 1st

Point Break
Robocop

I likely will never make 100 due to work and other things, but here goes!

[Tenchi7]

Forgot it was opening day. So somehow I will watch 100 movies, and 50 baseball games this month.

[cinemaphile]

Damn - you people need to get a job!

I keep track of all the movies I watch in the film diary over at Letterboxd.

I wish I had the kind of time to hit 100, but I tend to average closer to one a day (with most being on weekends).
