Tokyo DisneySea

During my Tokyo Marathon trip back in March I had waited three years for that trip and only about a month or so before decided that I would add a Disney day to it all. I picked my last full day and had pre-booked a ticket for DisneySea, I researched a little into the two parks the other being Disneyland and decided that with DisneySea being more for adults. Plus I had been to Disneyland in Paris many years ago.

With DisneySea being very unique and having certain aspect that are truly just in Japan I thought it was the perfect park to visit. Given that my last Disney experience was nearly 20 years previous to this one I wasn’t fully sure what to expect in all honesty. Although I don’t think anything can really prepare you for just how crazy Disney is, people get well into it and it certainly makes for a very enjoyable day.

I quickly bought a headband as soon as I arrived and while something Monster Inc and Mike related was my number one choice, I couldn’t find anything so settled on the three eyed Alien from Toy Story headband and quite frankly I rocked it most of the day 😂.

Let’s Go To The Movies – 50 Favourite Films!

This is something I have been putting together for quite a long time now and I have held off posting it or even attempting to start the blog post in fear that I have forgotten and somehow missed a favourite film from the list. Barring in mind I got up to 72 films and then had to cut it down to the 50. I would like to make clear these are my favourite films, some might have happened to win Oscars as well and some certainly have not at all. The way I have decided on my favourites is the sheer joy they bring and the number of rewatches I have had over the years. While I have listed 1-50 a lot of them can be shifted around and changed with each other. It is going to highlight my love for musicals and for certain actors and actresses! I doubt it will contain many surprises though!

2020 Letterboxd Stats!

I signed up for Letterboxd way back in 2015. Yes, really! Although I didn’t actually start using it properly until the end of 2019 and therefore 2020 was the first full year that I logged every single film that I watched. Albeit not as many Cinema films as I would have liked, which leads me on to saying during the lockdown/furlough stage I spent a lot of time logging in the diary all of the films I had seen at the Cinema dating back to 2003 (yes, I still have my Lord of the Rings: Return of the King ticket). This obviously took a few weeks as I also logged the films I have review on here as well. So as you imagine a lot of time was taken to do this. It gives some amazing all-time stats though.

Here we can take a look at my 2020 stats and I am sure no one will be surprised with my most watched films either!
