50 films and books challenge
2007 round-up: I woke up one day and thought that I would be better off staying away from movies. Now that I have regained my sanity, I am unable to get back into it fully. Also, was lazy and missed the count in some places for both films and books last year.
2008 target: 100 films, 50 books.
