MOVIES:
This year I watched 215 films. I didn’t actually have a goal of how many I was planning on watching, but I’m setting a goal for the next year (250). This year I watched a lot of British Cinema, and managed to find a few random Bollywood and other foreign films in the mix (thanks to a cinema class I took in the spring). I didn’t really go the theaters much, and I’m going to use the poor college excuse. Plus, you can find mostly anything on the internet.

Favorite 2010 releases: Leap Year, Letters to Juliet, Toy Story 3, Cemetery Junction, Charlie St. Cloud, It’s a Wonderful Afterlife, Wild Target, Easy A, 4.3.2.1, Chatroom, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Tangled, The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec


Older Releases: Whip It, Gran Torino, In Bruges, Hot Fuzz, Dil Bole Hadippa!, Cherrybomb, Heartless, Cashback, The Disappearance of Alice Creed, Ondine, 3 Idiots, Let the Right One In.
