Didn't plan on trying to hit all these but this is what I have just from normal movie watching all year. I ended up watching a lot of older films for some reason. 40/52
2019 Movie Challenge
Here's an update on my list. I still have nine left, mostly continent or film movement themed ones, hopefully I can find an African/South American film in a month or so.
My List 43/52

Currently 5 on the main list and 10 on the nightmare list. I get the impression I had last year's challenge wrapped up by now.

I don't know how you feel about French New Wave but
Black Orpheus(1959)
The Battle of Algiers (1966)
They were two films that were done by french film makers overseas in Brazil and Algeria both are very good

In the final stretch now with only 7 films to go. To be fair, I will probably watch an extra Clint Eastwood film because I feel like adding Casper in there is sort of like cheating given that he only shows up for a few seconds as a gimmick.

With a single day day to go I completed both challenges!
I had to pick up the summer slacking off during the past few months but I am happy to say I have completed this for 3 years running!
I am not sure about my complete stats during 2019 as I didn't keep track of the films I revisited but I watched 225 films for the first time, which averages to a little over 0.6 films per day.
I hope the ones that participated or simply followed the thread had fun and got to watch some films they otherwise wouldn't have.
See you all at the 2020 challenge!
Final Tally:
