Me and the AFI - It's On! (Possibly like Donkey Kong)

I am not at all a "film buff" but I sure do love watching movies. I've seen more than my fair share of everything from Woody Allen to Charlie Chaplin to having my favorite films be The Matrix and 28 Days Later. (Honestly, I love them all - trite romantic comedies, poorly-written action films, poorly-acted comedies, and the life-affirming Oscar-worthy ones, too.)

On the new bucket list that I made, I reintroduced a goal that I previously took off another to-do list. Yes, I'm going to attempt to watch all of the AFI 100 years, 100 movies. (Click here for the PDF list I will be working off.) I've seen 23 of them already, so the remainder shouldn't be a problem.

Plus that it's a bucket list item means I have a little bit of time to get this done before I kick the bucket. Hopefully, it won't be for a couple of years.

Odd fact: Of the movies on this list, I think it's a little random that I've seen City Lights, but never saw E.T. Seriously. :-D

Update (12/18/09): I finally added the movies to my Netflix queue and, as it turns out, I've actually seen another 14 other movies from the list (titles like Tootsie and All About Eve escaped my mind when I first checked off the list and printed it out). That means I'm already 37% done and I haven't even officially started watching yet. I'll be done in no time! *nervous laughter*
