The plan this year was to watch all the movies listed here<\/a> (final tally: 53\/155), then after I cancelled that plan I instead planned to watch all the movies listed here<\/a> (a miserable 9\/90). I think the plan for 2011 will be not to follow any specific list. Because I have plenty of lists (see also: here<\/a> and here<\/a> and here<\/a>) and they all seem like good ones to follow, but not for an entire year. Theme months are fun though – December was Westerns month and before that came SHOCKtober – so maybe we’ll do more of those.<\/p>\n

From other long-term viewing quests: seen 54% of available Criterion DVDs (up 2% from last year – catching up!), 55% of movies on the “They Shoot Pictures” list (somehow down<\/strong> from last year – did my math wrong somewhere), and 46% of Jonathan Rosenbaum’s 1000 favorite films.<\/p>\n

Popular filmmakers: I ended up watching six movies by Pedro Costa<\/a> (only because the seventh is unavailable) this year, and three each by Claude Chabrol<\/a>, Samuel Fuller<\/a>, Fritz Lang<\/a>, Takashi Miike<\/a>, Frank Borzage<\/a> and John Ford<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I watched only ten features which IMDB would count as 2010 releases, and added (so far) a hundred more to my must-see list<\/a>. At least I’ll never run out of movies.<\/p>\n

At one point I was trying to watch tons of movies from 1977, the year I was born, but I didn’t manage to watch a single one of those this year – until yesterday with Close Encounters<\/a><\/em>. Seems alright to fall behind on the 1977-movies goal, since they’re not making any more of them.<\/p>\n
