Idea from grrliz: all the movies I've seen in theatres this year:



Be Cool
The Ring 2
Sin City (I think 2x)
Fever Pitch
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Kingdom of Heaven
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
Mr. & Mrs. Smith
The Lords of Dogtown
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
March of the Penguins
Red-Eye
Just Like Heaven
Flightplan
The Corpse Bride
Elizabethtown
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Everything is Illuminated
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
Rent
King Kong

That's in the order they came out, not in the order I saw them. (ETA: I rearranged them into what I think is the right order. I only have half my stubs) Only in theatres, too. I went over this list and found all the ones I saw, and it's really interesting how my movie viewing comes in waves. But there was so much more I wanted to see.

I liked all of these movies, except The Ring 2, which was really badly written, bad effects, etc. Just bad. And I could've lived without Travelling Pants; it wasn't half as good as the book (cliche, but sometimes the movie is still great). But it was still cute.

That's 23 trips to the cinema! Not too shabby. You notice I don't care for repeat viewings; if I'm gonna spend the money, I want to see something new. In any given month I've got 5 to 10 movies I want to see.

ETA: i forgot that I probably saw movies in early 2005 that were released in late 2004 and weren't on that list. I looked at some ticket stubs, and fixed it as best I could. Far as I can tell, it was just "Be Cool" that I forgot. I thought POTO mgiht be on here, but I saw it on Dec 27, 04.
