Some challenges I am posing myself. This used to be only for 2009 but I'm extending it.

Bolded ones are challenges I've completed.

The 'directors' section will contain directors of which I'm currently aiming to watch all movies. These will be directors who, due to their being somewhat dead, are currently not active anymore.
