Rules and Guidelines:
1. Watch 100 movies or more in 2009.
2. Keep track of how many I watch.
3. First time movies only.
Rating System:
1 = Hated it.
2 = Didn't really care for it. (Not great, but parts are okay)
3 = Liked it.
4 = Really liked it.
5 = Loved it so much.
Movies watched in 2009

06. Paul Blart: Mall Cop (3)
07. August Rush (5; I now own the fanlisting)

25. The Hudsucker Proxy (3)
26. Knocked Up (2.5; would've scored higher if it weren't so... crass, shall we say?)

28. Balls of Fury (4; didn't even expect to like it)
29. The Perfect Storm (3.5)
30. Shrek the Third (4)
31. Dunston Checks In (2.5; Paul Rubens' character saved it from one-dom)

37. Footloose (3ish)

46. What Happens in Vegas (4)
47. Space Chimps (4 - love the closing credits song... hee hee)

50. Be Kind, Rewind (3.5 - sweeter than I expected)
51. Enemy of the State (4 - umm... why is Seth Green uncredited?)
52. Say Anything... (4.5 - can't believe I'd never seen it)
53. American Psycho 2 (I actually saw this a while back, but forgot to put it on the list. It gets a 3, simply because I find Mila Kunis interesting).
