Ok so i've been doing OK with my movie list but only ok. Im up to 33 movies watched now which is pretty good but I still have 67 more to go. I figured out that if I want to watch them all by the end of june I am going to have to watch at least 2 movies every single day. Thats not soooo bad but it seems that to be one of the hundred best american movies of all time you have to also be at least 3 hours long. If I watched 2 movies that length everyday it would be like having a second full time job. That would be the best job ever.
ok here is the list.
