Movies & TV / Re: Movies You Watched in 2020

« on: February 15, 2021, 06:04:48 AM »

Maybe I'm the only one but I've been keeping a list of movies I've watched and adding to it every time I see a new one. While people are looking back at the games they played this year, I thought I'd bring up the movies that were watched this past year if you can remember them. (I'm amazed how quickly a film can pass from memory sometimes. There are occasions where I'm struggling to remember what I watched a couple days ago in order to add it to my list when I don't update it right away.)

For myself, it's another wide spectrum of films, both good and bad. Started the year off at theaters trying to stay on top of the Oscar nominees like 1917 or Jojo Rabbit and, boy, does that seem ages ago now. (I have no idea what's even going to be considered for the Oscars this year. In fact, I haven't even heard a thing about the Golden Globes and they usually happen around this time... :thinking emoji:) After that, it's been a wide mix of watching movies from TCM or other movie channels. When lockdown first hit from Covid, the cable company made a bunch of movie channels free to watch. (I guess in an effort to help keep people indoors.) So, I PVR'd a bunch and still have others to work through. After a downward trend in the numbers of new movies I watched compared to the past year that's been happening for 3 years now, 2020 saw a spike upwards and I went over 100 new films. I guess I found the time somehow.    Anyway's here's the list:

Again, this doesn't cover seeing some movies I may have watched again for the whateverth time. Although, a lot of those were also just clicking on the TCM channel while they were in progress and then being sucked into watching them to the end. I see so many endings and so few beginnings sometimes.  How about you?

Gee, Thanksss I feel like a kid in the candy store. I've searched for movies to watch and I walked right into this thread. Please which would you recommend I start with?
