Once we’re done I’m not sure if I’ll make another, but most likely yes. Until then, I’d like to go back to individual updates for every movie. However, since doing it to the dozens I’ve watched in the past four years is not feasible, I’ve decided to simply divide them into three categories, featured below. I’ve mentioned most of these films on the blog over the years, either in lists, recaps or Blind Spots (which I’ll link below!) so you’re likely aware of most of them.

Spot any favourites? Or movies you’re still missing? Let me know!
Good to see you’ve crossed off a damn good number of films.
Thanks, I’m glad too!
Mother of God, Breathless is so damn boring. I actually don’t think I finished it. No wonder it’s at the bottom of that list 🙂
Haha god yes, it was definitely one of those I did not really enjoy watching 😅
Nice list! I love so many of your instant favorites and liked instantly picks. Citizen Kane is so annoying – I can’t even.
You’re not the first person to tell me that, I think Citizen Kane is overrated for many people. I didn’t *hate* it but can’t say you’ll catch me watching it again for like 50 years 🙈
Well, I can cross off 12 from this list and I mean, I consider that a pretty good number for myself. 😀
Not bad!! 😂👏🏻
