2023 Letterboxd Stats!

This has become one of my favourite things to look at that the end of the year, actually who am I kidding it’s something I actually monitor throughout the year as well. I love stats for anything and everything because let’s face it you cannot argue against that type of information.

My film viewing in 2023 was lower than normal and that was mainly due to some personal struggles and battles, I think with that though I managed to watch mainly ok and good films, obviously the odd bad one will sneak in but I feel as though I made better choices.

This year we have a new themes cateogry thrown in as well! I did try to keep rewatches a lower and focus on first time viewings and I manged 67.5%.

What are your stats for 2023?

Which film did you watch the most, and who were your top stars?

30 Years of Jurassic Park! 🦖

That’s right on this date way back in 1993, Jurassic Park was released at the cinema (in the US) as I have since found out that it was actually released in the UK on my 6th birthday on the 16th July. Anyway the 9th June was the first release date so I thought it was the perfect opportunity for a celebration blog post gushing about everything Jurassic Park.

I still find myself totally blown away with the film when watching it now and the fact that it has a lovely 4K UHD upgrade makes it look as good as ever. That is something that just highlights the impressive nature of the filmmaking behind it all really, the fact that it is still better than what they did with Jurassic World.
