Movies I watched in the theater – 2008
2008 isn’t quite over, so I’ll probably update this list with a few more movies. I plan on seeing The Wrestler, The Day the Earth Stood Still and Valkyrie.
Update 12/26/2008 – Saw The Day the Earth Stood Still and didn’t like it. More on that later.
I got the idea of making this list from Penn Jillette who publishes a list of what books, movies and concerts he’s consumed that year. I didn’t read that many books or go to that many concerts, so I’m not going to publish that list. This list doesn’t include all of the movies I’ve watched via Netflix, OnDemand or on dvd. There are currently 40 movies total, so about 80 hours of my life this year viewing films in a theater.
I put an asterisk in front of my favorites.
