No problem. Mitchell does have a great sensibility to add some much needed humor to the proceedings.
I'm also trying to keep track of films seen by director, which is really a work in progress. Especially since I've not really maintained a film list before 2004/2005, so filling in the stuff prior will require much more time, effort.
Done, but I'm sure I'll be mid to low on the list AGAIN. Seriously, these people watch 400-500 films a year. How in hell is that possible? Unless you're getting paid to do it, I suppose.
I'm in. Although I perpetually finish middle to low in the pack, I like to be part of the obsessive pursuit all the same. Thanks, kaplan, for keeping the fire burning!
Glad you like it. It's been a real chore to compile, and I'm not done yet. I think that I'm going to have to break the list up by alphabet or something, because it's just too long to casually peruse.
It's not actually films made prior to 2004, it's films I've seen since 2004.
It's only since then that I started using a ranking system at all. Before that it was just like/dislike, which is reflecting here too.

I swear I just continue to participate to make others feel better about their totals. So, here goes again: http://www.listology.com/p-pogo/list/films-seen-2011

Thanks for the comment, but my original Faulkner crack was kind of a joke. A poor joke, but a joke all the same.
Would it be funnier if I used Steinbeck as the example?
As usual, fools rush in where angels fear to tread. In other words, here we go again.
Heyrocker for prez! Thank you, sir.
Thursdays are good movie nights, but you've got to be dedicated to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks. Congrats!
P.S. I don't stalk. It's not in my nature.
Thanks. We'll see. Van Sant tends to run hot and cold for me.
You're absolutely right. He must get thirsty after chewing every piece of scenery...
I like the list - and I like the discussion after it.
Now that's listing!
I like the Ward Bond maxim, and am also surprised to see he appears in so many memorable films.
Cloned this, since I'm already trying to plow through some of these gaps on my own.
Like you, I'm pretty top-heavy on the ones I've viewed: lots in the first 250, and then it gets sparser from there.
Ooh! Me too! I love racing for last!
