  1. 1. Is there at least one film you've seen more than 50 times?

    • Yes!
    • Um, no. Who sees a film that many times? Losers.

I don't typically rewatch movies.  My answer would likely be something I popped in a bunch when I was a kid.  Return of the Jedi?  Batman Returns?  Pee-wee's Big Adventure?

 

Now that I have a kid of my own, Moana may be giving them a run for their money.

Well, they never specify whether they were good or not.

 

That's very true. I would guess I've seen somewhere between 7-8000 movies in my 41-year-long life (with some rough math, and including films I've seen over again), but only a tiny fraction of those have actually been good. Did I waste my time with the bad ones, then? Not really. They've actually been crucial in my growth as a film lover, I think.

Ah I don't count rewatches in my list. Once a film has been seen, it's in the list, never to be re-entered.

 

Yeah, that makes sense. But while I had a handwritten "list book" in my teens and then again from about 2014 onwards, there's a huge gap inbetween where I just have to put up estimates. And that would have to include rewatches, as in "time spent watching films". The math went more or less as follows: 250 a year (on average) between 2019 and 1999. Then 150 (on average) between 1999 and 1989. Then 100 (on average) between 1989 and 1984. Then 50 (on average) from 1984 to 1977. Obviously not many in my first couple of years, but some years with more than 250 in recent years. So roughly between 7-8000 in total.

 

If I say 7500 films, and an average film duration of 90 minutes (obviously, many films are longer), that would equal 11250 hours. Or 469 days. Or 1.3 years. Just watching films nonstop. Fascinating statistics. :D

That sure is low but wasn't  it around 900 previously so you are doing well. Wait till you are my age, you will get there. I have long lost count. But movies are life. 

Johnnyecks what do you think about Creepshow 2. The raft still disturbs me.

 

 

While I definitely enjoy Creepshow a hell of a lot more, C2 is very enjoyable. I wish there were more than 3 stories and I didn't quite care for the animated sections. Wish those were live action. That always bothered me.

 

The Raft is exceptional. My favorite though has always been The Hitchhiker. 

 

I am hesitantly looking forward to Nicotero's TV reboot, but am not hopeful. 

 

Creepshow 3 is pure garbage.
