At last I have met someone who has seen Trainspotting....What did you think?
Oh, I'd be surprised if many of the movie-focused Listologists have NOT seen Trainspotting.
Drugs are bad. Don't do drugs. Get a job. Stay in school. Scots people talk funny. That's about it.
I made a list of the differences between the 1st and 2nd editions of the NY Times list.
Given the historical bend to your movie watching, I wonder whether or not you'd have a higher number based on the 1st edition (not that numbers are the point, of course; I'm just curious.)
I did a comparison. I actually come out ahead in the second edition. I add 26 and take away 24 titles. Thanks for making the list! That was alot of work.
Do you actually like updating all these different lists every time you see a movie?
Yes, it gives me a sense of accomplishment. Some of these movies can be a real task to watch. I can't wait until I finish at least one list. I've never finished a movie list before, but I'm getting real close to finishing Maltin's.
I'll just add that I LOVE updating my lists after seeing movies. Not only does it give me that sense of progress, it reminds me of all the great movies that I have yet to see.
I enjoy that aspect, too.
