I start pre-med this year, so I need something that will stop me from pulling my hair out. I'm compiling a list of 200 movies I should watch before my senior year (three years from now).Then, when I'm done, I want to write reviews on the Top 50. I only have 130 listed and am severely lacking in foreign films and documentaries, so I'd really appreciate it if some of you could suggest some movies that you've seen and love.

I've just seen the ones in bold as of last week. Some of these I've seen, but was too young to really remember much of them now.
I've also taken up some prompts from the Summer Battle at thefuturequeen. I'm planning to get all of these done before I go on hiatus on August 25th.
--Two Chapters of Hello Sunshine
--One Chapter of Adventures of a Crossdressing Knight (if I'm up to it)
--Two seven chapter stories: One using the Seven Deadly Sins and the color red [from Arthur's point of view], and the other using the Seven Heavenly Virtues and the color purple [From Gwen's point of view]
-- A Gawain/Gwen one shot set during childhood
-- A Lancelot/Gwen video set to the Beatles' "Something"
-- A Arthur/Gwen video with the song "Holding out for a Hero"
-- A fic of the Alphabet of Gwen (akin to my 50 moments series)
-- A one shot where Gwen is the one who arrives with magic, not Merlin
Think I can do it? I sure hope so!
