The Shoutbox
Jeez, watching movies isn't a race. But it's still cool to always be #1 one in anything film-related!
My problem is I'm too lazy. I watch films or work out or work or sleep. And the rest is just mindless bullshitting on MoFo. If I wanted to create a list, that'd take a lot of time and given I can't really sacrifice any of the time dedicated to anything but watching films, this would mean less films watched. And Allaby is watching so many he's making me uncomfortable! I don't want to lose to him and his maniacal number of films watched by the end of 2024.
The 1980s win with 2092 films.
Looks like I've seen 332 films from the 1910s, so that'd be possible, too. I'm not sure if I can actually list 100 I loved from this decade, though.

Only 464 from the 1920s, though. I really have to step up my silents game.

Do a top 100 per decade. I’m serious
You mean top 100 of each decade starting from, say, 1920s? Sounds like a huge undertaking.
Yes. Shouldn’t be too hard for you, I would think
Or a top 100 documentaries or top 100 shorts

I miss pestering my friends about films they didn't get. These days, watching films is even more solitary than it used to be. Good because I'm not dependent on anybody's reaction to the sincerity and genuity of my comments. I'm my own man! But I also don't talk to anyone about films.

For years I thought creating write-ups about films I just watched was pointless and stupid. But then I started doing it. Maybe the same will apply to this guide idea.

Anyway, when I had a constant audience of film buffs that followed my every rating & comment, and not just any random people, but people I interacted with, that social aspect was pretty cool. Letterboxd is much more decentralized. I have many followers but I hardly know any of them, let alone spoke to any of them.
I have an idea. It's a guide to cinephilia. It'd contain all countries and movements and styles and whatnot with directors and films. It sounds cool in theory, but it'd be lots of work and I'm not sure what the end goal would be. Maybe a better idea would be to create some categories and add many films that fit the category.
