Default March 2018 50 Movie Challenge

Main Theme: A-Z (25 movies)
You can drop one letter (Q, X, and Z are popular drops but you decide) and you can substitute a number title (ex: The 400 Blows) for another letter.

Featured Category (optional): Women-centric films (5 movies)
These can be either women behind the camera (director, writer, producer, editor, etc.) or women-centric story/characters on screen. Here is a list of films directed by women to give you some ideas.

Recommendations Category: Real world places in the title (5 movies)
5 movies you haven't seen before from the titles recommended by other members. In your initial tracking post, everyone list 5-10 films with real places in the title (city, state, country, continent, river, mountain, etc.) that you think others may not have seen and may enjoy. Then for the ones you watch for this category, mention who recommended the film in your post.

Remaining Categories: Member's Choice (15 movies)
Your remaining 15 movies can be put into whatever categories you want. You can substitute the featured category to Member's Choice if you want for a total of 20 movies.
___________________________________

The Usual Fine Print:
  • 50 movies is the goal, but based on your own time and situation you can shoot for more or less, so we have different levels from Coal to Platinum:
    60 Movies - Platinum
    50 Movies - Gold
    40 Movies - Silver
    30 Movies - Bronze
    20 Movies - Copper
    10 Movies - Coal
    <10 Movies - Why are you on this site?
  • If you're going to re-post your entire list every time, please hide it under spoiler tags.
  • If you're going to post pictures for the films (poster art or Blu-ray covers, for example) please try not to use GIANT pictures, and if there are tons of them, again - please hide under spoilers.

Jungle - (first-time viewing, Amazon Prime)
I give the movie a 3/5, but Radcliffe's performance a 4/5

That brings me to 10
(I would have more, but I was binging a bunch of Black Mirror, and many of those are almost feature-length)

Thoroughbreds - (first-time viewing, theater/MoviePass)
Glad I saw it only because it was Yelchin's final film, but overall, the movie was pretty bland. It just reveled way too much its own "indie"-ness. And I don't know about anyone else, but I was rooting for the girls to die. They were just unlikable b*tches. Oh well, it cost me nothing but time. Thanks, MoviePass.
