December Project – 31 Movies in 31 Days
December 1, 2008
Since I’ve had other writing assignments to complete for school, I have sort of neglected this thing for a while. And since I came up with a good name, I should not let this blog go to waste.
And that is why I am beginning my December 2008 project, 31 Movies in 31 Days. During the month of December, I plan on watching 31 films that I have not seen before and then writing up something about each of them. Ideally, I would watch one movie a day but my schedule clears up remarkably once the semester ends in a week and half, so I could double up if I needed to.
Why Paul, you must ask, why are you doing such a thing? For a variety of reasons (really only a few). There are a bunch of movies from this past year that I have not seen yet that I want to enjoy before I make a “Best Films of 2008″ list. Also, I have Netflix. Might as well take advantage of that. And finally, and maybe most importantly, I have two DVRs in my house filled with movies that I need to watch if I want to record any more.
So look forward to 31 movie writeups/reviews/commentaries in the next 31 days. And if I fail, like I tend to do with most of my long term “fun” projects, then you should at the very least get a few new blog entries out of it. Of course, I still have no idea who the “you” I was referring to in that last sentence is, but whatever.
EDIT (12.11.08): Maybe this is a January project…
