Top 100 Movies Challenge
So I was surfing about and jaunted over to Audrey's site. While I was there I saw a link called "Goal by 25". I of course assumed it was about me, something like "Meet The Bane" or "Write a sonnet praising the all powerful Bane" or maybe something as simple as "Express my longing and absolute adoration of the mighty man that is known to the world as Bane. He's so dreamy."
It's probably obvious that I didn't find any of those things or I would have started this post with a much larger font. What I did find though was pretty neat!
She has apparently set a goal for herself to watch all the movies on the AFI top 100 movie list by the time she is 25. Which is a neat goal and rather admirable that she wants to take in so much great cinema. Of course, myself being a great and very cultured man, I have had such a goal for myself up on my website for some time now, (Since yesterday when I stole the idea from her and put up a page of my own for the list) though I have yet to get into the list very far. Some of the movies I have watched in the past but I decided why not just watch them all regardless? So I'm starting from the beginning.
My List Here. I may go and make a script for this so I can comment easily on the movies that I watch and have dates and what not, to sort of document the project. May be fun. ![]()
Should you decide to take on the project yourself let me know and I'll link yours from the page.

Yes, yes she is… but…
I actually did consider doing a similar list for the top 100 movies according to IMDB. They have a list of the top 250 according to votes.
Jean Claude Van Damme 4 Life BABY!!
I love being the inspiration for something! :-)
and you guys rock! :-D
and i love your list idea Diva, but you may want to abbreviate the title. the one you’ve got is a mouthful!!
and Bane - i noticed when i went to the home page that currently playing was Superhero by Ani Difranco and I wanted to applaud your taste. Ani D is one of my favorites!!
Interesting shtuff… Sounds like an activity worth participating in. I might join the band wagon, although I wish I had more time to myself so that I could actually attempt it. One of my favourite movies of all time is on that list though (Some like it hot), I own it too- Holler if you wanna borrow Bane-o
It can be done. During the whole millenium bullcrap, myself and a friend made the comitment to watch all 100. 3 rentals at a time, 3 times a month. Took almost 2 years for the whole deal. Well worth it in the end, though there are a few blocks of hours I’d like back

Audrey is yummy! I think that’s a great idea. My list would have to be the Top 25 Movies That Were Pure Action With No Icky Chick Flick Storylines Involved. Catchy, no?
