So I'm making another attempt at keeping up with movies and posting on the forums. My littlest one is now almost four and as life is still super busy, getting out of the house and to the theater isn't as difficult. And my older two are able to watch more movies, and that helps too. I reconstructed my Top 100 so it is now my favorite films instead of the ones that I think are the best made films. This type of list just makes more sense. I watch movies because I like movies, so I should just make a list of movies I like the best. I think that is the list I made. At least for the time being...
