72. There’s a few partials in there as well, but i didn’t count them.
Hah. 83. Peter’s somewhere in the 90s. Squirmy’s score is pretty bad, but he *has* seen the entire 5 year run of Babylon 5.
I’m about a 50 score on the movie list. Most of those old ones bore me. Anyway, I must say that it is good that One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is in the book/movie area. Both book and movie are great, *but* the movie largely missed the point, hm so did Alice in Wonderland, and so did …
Oh ya, as for the old movies, I watched Double Indemnity recently. A total bore. “To have and to Have not” was wildly better. The Bogart/Bacall chemistry was amazing.
I’m at about 50, too, but probably a good deal higher since I often forget movies. I’m excited to see some movies from the 40’s I haven’t seen before. I’ll have to try and find them. Old movies are my very favourite. Well Jeff, I guess we’re not into the same kinds of movies at all.
Hey, Reid! I don’t see The Matrix in that list. That’s good. Very good. If one more person goes on about how good that movie was, I’ll shoot them.
I know Laura will happily join you in your Matrix-cide behaviour, Luisa. That trilogy went bad so fast it made George Lucas look like a master.
On the subject of old movies, some of the older ones can be found at archive.org. Titles like Nosferatu, The General, and Battleship Potemkin.
