This year I have decided to “challenge” myself to watch all those films I have put on the back burner. You know those films you have always wanted to (or should have) seen by now and you haven’t. May it be timing, availability or what have you. From the classics, to general movies I just still haven’t checked out and have always wanted to. Last year I was able to watch several films with my good friend Riikka and so many became instant favorites I don’t want to put certain titles off any longer! I’m sure I’ve forgotten some, or will add to this list naturally, but I made the decision to try to make an effort to see most – if not all – of the following films. This wouldn’t be such a difficult task given I didn’t watch anything else, but I’m the kind of person that tends to rewatch my favorite films on a regular basis, not to mention the crap Hollywood throws at us left and right, all whilst watching about a thousand shows. I know, I should probably distance myself from entertainment a bit but I am deciding to dive in head first!

strike = will symbolize actually viewing the film. Yay!
