My Years in Movies

Fandango Groovers Movie Blog is a fun movie blog hailing from the UK (or Australia, or somewhere like that. I can't find the post where he mentions where he's blogging from.) Regardless, you can get insights on movies that have not released in the states yet and revisit those that have. Recently, he issued a challenge to pick not only your favorite movies, but one for each year you have been alive. Fun!

1981- Evil Dead

82- Poltergeist

83- The Hunger
84- Ghostbusters (I didn't plan for this to be all horror related)
85- The Breakfast Club (See! I told ya!)
86- Aliens (Oops...)
87- The Princess Bride

96- The Craft

97- The Fifth Element (Well there went my no repeats rule)

98- Elizabeth
99- Boondock Saints

2000- American Psycho (Though if I were being honest, it would probably be "Bring it On" for the sheer volume of times viewed)

01- Donnie Darko
02- Road to Perdition

03- Kill Bill, Vol. 1

04- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

05- Sin City

06- The Departed

07- Eastern Promises

09- (500) Days of Summer

11- Hanna (So far)

What's really weird is how recent some of these movies seem and how old that makes me feel. Doesn't it feel like "The Departed" just came out a year or two ago? Try over 4! It's like when I was talking about music the other day with a friend and I mentioned how I usually prefer the "B" sides and they asked, "What's a 'B' side?" I think my jaw literally hit the floor. Of course, if you're under 25 tapes are just something you see at a vintage store or garage sale.
