Film and Theatre Lover!
I did something special last month in terms of a cinema trip and all in one day, back to back I got to experience one of my favourite trilogies on the big screen again. This was the first time I had watched them one after the other on the big screen though and it was enjoyable as ever (well maybe changing the trailers before each one might have been a little bit better but never mind).

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?
Merry Christmas to all of the followers, supporter and friends of Let’s Go To The Movies. I hope you have a fantastic day and festive period!

Announcement!
I am going to be doing a Michael Caine-athon meaning I am going to be catching up with films that I have never seen before from the legendary British actor! This has come into play since watching A Shock to the System and I decided what better way to start the year than watching Michael Caine films?

At this time of year we cannot help but watch the same films again and quite frankly we probably don’t focus enough on the villains in those films. I actually thought this would be a rather amusing list to put together with some interesting choices (hopefully).
A modern update on the story of Oliver Twist. We follow Oliver as he free runs his way around the roof tops of London and meets Dodge one day when running from the police and it’s not long until he meets Fagin.

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!
