It was to see at least 20 movies I never seen before each month.
That's 240 movies for the whole year.
I saw 272 movies that I never seen before this year.
60 out of the 272 are movies that came out in 2009.
This coming year, I'm going to be busy being a father

What's new for 2010 on my film watching hobby??
After planning and research,
I will be having the following personal movie nights:
Every Tuesday will still be New Release Tuesdays
(in which I see a movie on dvd that came out that day),
Friday at the Grindhouse will be moved to the 4th Friday
of each month.
Spaghetti Western Night has moved to the 2nd Wednesday
of each month instead of the 3rd.
No more Asian, Gangster, and Foreign nights
(no reason to have these on a specific night because
I watch a bunch of these every month).
Instead we will have:
Documentary Monday (1st Monday)
Animation Thursday (3rd Thursday)
Linda's Chick Flick Night (2nd Saturday)
in addition, I will have a segment called,
"Catching up with a Director."
Every month I choose a director that I like but haven't seen
all their films and I will watch 5 of their films
throughout a month.
(For example: I haven't seen the early works of
Stanley Kubrick. So throughout February, I will watch five
films I haven't seen by Kubrick.)
We're done with the year, but before I leave you,
here's a random video moment from
the Low Budget Theatre Room.
I was about to see my #1 movie of the year
for the 3rd time.
Happy New Year!!!
