I believe you though I do think something like this must have been done back in the early 70s. I don't think it's as original as you think but seeing something like this in the age of all those generic posters that are so prevalent is so refreshing.Quoting Grouchy (view post)

Everyone has to see Downsizing! It’s a big sappy preachy mess of a movie but it’s got a big heart and I LOVED it! Don’t listen to the critics. Can we have a dedicated thread? Thank you to whoever does that!

Downsizing is new Alexander Payne. I am there. Also Proud Mary is going to be badass.

Am I the only one here today?
Started watching Gremlins for the first time in a long time tonight, because Christmas, and was enjoying it some, but then I realized I could be watching Gremlins 2 instead, so here I am now, giggling once again at Joe Dante joyfully middle-fingering his way through an enormous studio sequel.
For a bunch of the year I was on par to watching 365 movies this year. I'm currently at 327 so I won't quite make it even if I watch four movies each day the rest of the year, but I do feel pretty cool that I got that close.
I think the two best Christmas movies ever have to be Christmas Vacation and Die Hard.
I'm at 212 right now, which is 11 more than my all-time record of 201 back in 2015. (thanks Letterboxd)
Can you tell when I started playing Mass Effect Andromeda, Summer vacation and Engagement was this year?
I'm at 313.
I haven't seen the original, but judging from the trailer, I can't help thinking that Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again has a pretty good concept for making an unnecessary sequel seem warranted.
I'll post mine when the year's fully out, but I'm on target to hit 350 this year. What. A. Nerd.
last four:
black widow - 8
zero dark thirty - 9
the muse - 7
freaky - 7

I'm not pro so I can't get the cool graphics but I already know if I did a directors thing my number one director would be Gerald Thomas since I watched all of the "Carry On" films this year. And then there would be other graphics for James Bond stuff since I watched all of those movies this year most for the first time.
If I had to guess my most watched director would most likely be Sam Liu as well.
That's a fantastic poster but the January release date has me apprehensive.Love this movie poster I'm seeing everywhere here in Chicago
And I've seen 154 films for the first time this year. I won't be catching up to you guys in 2017, but it's a personal best for me.
That being said, next year I'll be posting links to a Letterboxd list when I make updates on this site just because it takes a lot of time.

I'm so far behind in my reviewing that I just started on October. :/ Planning to be fully caught up by end of year.
Is that letterboxed? Maybe I'll give that a try in 2018.
Fairly sure Tarantino would be most watched Director, therefor SLJ as actor.
What about Bad Santa? Home Alone?

Christmas Movies VS. Movies That Take Place During Christmas
Eyes Wide Shut? Silent Night, Deadly Night?
I don't know about whole films, but my two favourite Christmas scenes--and in my experience, the most realistic--are those in Ma saison préférée and the Todd Haynes remake of Mildred Pierce.
God, I hate Christmas.
Just because...
The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
Petite maman (Céline Sciamma, 2021) mild
The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild
The last book I read was...
The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain
The (New) World
Duke, where do you pull those Letterboxed stats?
IIRC, Letterboxd will give you a year in review after the new year, but if you pay for Pro status, you can look at your stats any time you want per the Stats button bottom right under your profile ribbon.
Eeeeeh ok. I'm not gonna pay just for percentages of my sometimes arbitrary ranking of films. I'm sticking with Criticker.
I wish I could reset my rankings and restart.
Even without pro I love letterboxd. It's gotten me much more into movies than ever before.
