Well, I’ve passed a milestone. One hundred movies watched so far (not including movies I’ve seen more than once) since this blog started way back in February. Here is the run down. The movies in the specific star categories are in no particular order. That is to say, a movie listed on the top of the 10 star category is not to be considered the all time best movie. I guess I’m just to lazy to get into that much detail.
