July

July was a weird month for me. I really thought that I had been slacking in my movie watching and had been falling behind, but apparently I watched a lot of stuff! I’m definitely on track to reach my goal of watching 300 movies before January 1st but I’ve got to stay focused.

For August, I’ve really been thinking of digging into my personal backlog of purchases. My unwatched (sometimes unopened) Criterion blu-rays alone could keep me occupied for most of the month. We’ll see how that goes, it’s usually easier just to see what’s on Netflix Instant…
