Bwahaha. It’s gonna take me at least one year. Oh well :)

I’m just going to go straight down the list, perhaps rewatching the ones I’ve already seen.

I’ve always wanted to do something like this, especially on a list with a big mixture of serious movies, funny movies, ect.

188. Kill Bill: Vol. 2
26. Wall-E
103. Blade Runner

84/250

What to write here ???? confused :D

start

At last count, and according to the list at twofifty.org, I’m at 227 out of 250. Most of those are in the last 75 or so of the list (where there is a deal of volatility).

Hi

127. Kill Bill: Vol. 1
24. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

81/250

On the 22 August 2008 I managed to strike alle the 250 films that were on the list !!

Not that it mathers, but the final strike was: ‘My Neighbour Totoro’

It’s taken me through a 3 year effort, and the joy is only toppled by the constant changes of the list ;) (Today, there’s 2 films on the list I haven’t seen). I must have seen atleast a hundred movies that have fallen off the list during the years (so, I’v actually watched something like the top 4-500 :))

I highly recommend getting a login @ twofifty.org so you can manage your list, and yes, it is possible :)

I started with all the video-stores, then the library, then remote loans on other libraries, then torrents, and even YouTube !!

Oh.. And it’s worth it.. Only a couple (2-3) of the movies were boring. All were good. Most of them, I would never have gotten to see if they were not on the list..
