2011 in review

The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 160,000 times in 2011. If it were an exhibit at the Louvre Museum, it would take about 7 days for that many people to see it.

2012 Challenges

Instead of setting some New Year’s resolutions for the blog or movie watching I have decided to set some 2012 challenges in regards to film watching!

  • Try to review each film I see at the cinema – now this wasn’t far off in 2011 but must do better!
  • Watch the films I have on DVD that I have never actually seen
  • Focus on old films with the year ending in 2 . . . 2002, 1992, 1982 etc
  • Form top 10 lists with regards to the above challenge
  • Catch up on films I missed in 2011
  • Make more use of my LOVEFiLM subscription
  • See more than 57 films at the cinema (2011’s total)

What about anyone else, any 2012 challenges?
