Just watched what should likely be a bottom 10 (maybe bottom 5)...I think...

As for next time around, I know Vis put together a "So Bad It's Good" list that I believe is planned for the next up after Crime 2

a few others that were mentioned in the previous topic, please confirm if any of the proposed lists want to officially get into the queue:

Karo - Animation 5 (confirmed to host at some point, but not sure if the list is ready yet?)
Tangy - mentioned running a movies about movies list at some point, not sure if that's still happening?
Suprak - mentioned doing a CYOA guilty pleasure list
Seginus - mentioned a best of Nicolas Cage list
Bitto - mentioned a time travel/time loop list
@LightningStrikes - mentioned hosting a DCEU list
Snake - has mentioned a few different lists in the past, I think it's mostly a question of hosting availability?

FYI Time Travel list is ready to go.

Disorganized Crime list looks pretty fun, but I'm just too busy this quarter to work on this.
I can't live forever
With my head and my heart in the clouds
Finally to 6/30! Watched a good one tonight; possible top 5 contender.

Gonna have to dedicate some evenings to get through this. I probably need to get to 14-15 by the end of the month to stay on track.

So far I've just been wanting to rewatch the ones I already like, oops
azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify
Think I'm at like 12 now? And mostly been watching the ones I haven't seen

Also I did want to make mention of it specifically since it could be easy to mix up, the Oldboy on the list is specifically the 2003 Park Chan-wook film, not the Josh Brolin 2013 remake

33% done.

You really start to see the similar themes in these movies after a while.

Also, so much smoking...

Also, can I get a rough head count of who all still intends on participating? From the progress posts, I'm assuming we at least have:
Me
Vis
Karo
Seanchan
Seginus
jcgamer

A handful showed interest early on, are you guys still looking to take part?

I'm able to participate. I've seen 18/30. Might need to re-watch a few.

Im still going with this, Ill be involved!
I just decided to change this sig.
Blaaaaaaargh azuarc
I'm downgrading myself to a 'maybe' but I will try to finish
azuarc wasn't even home. he was playing Magic the Gathering at his buddy's store, which is extremely easy to verify
Nah I'm probably out tbh, too much horror in October to focus on.
I've decided to put my fears behind me. I'm not going back.
If you're gonna scream, scream with me
Officially halfway home, so I'll be finishing this barring unforeseen circumstances.

That said, I have no idea how you guys do this 3-4 times a year and still manage to play games. This has been most of my nights since I started! I haven't played a non-mobile game in weeks.

I often end up gaming in shorter bursts after movies or on weekends, and I only really watch a movie if I know the evening is pretty open

I'm definitely going to try for this! I am only 5 in at this point but I always tend to slack up front and rush towards the end. This is a fun enough list that I think I should be able to do it.
Moops?

Same here. I'm trying to figure out if I can do 31 movies in 31 days but even if not I'll be watching the horror at every opportunity
All hail the coming of the Destroyer - the Slayer's time...is now.
Live and let live.
I definitely still plan on it

Watched a couple really good ones I might have never seen otherwise, I think I'm more likely to finish now

I've exhausted all the movies that are free or on streaming services I subscribe to.

I guess it's time to start paying to rent or take a trip to the library.

Gaming has certainly taken a backseat for me, it's too much to keep up with. I still have to get around to Elden Ring at some point

I know what you're alluding to but not worth it to me. If I have to spend $4 to rent some of these, so be it.
