Adventures in Classic Movie Watching

I saw this article a few months ago and thought, hmm. 30 movies in less than 9 years before I'm 40? I can do that. There's also a bunch of these movies that I've always wanted to see and just never got around to!

So here's the list that I'm going to focus on...

1. Fight Club (1999)
2. The Godfather (1972)
3. Forrest Gump (1994)
4. Pulp Fiction (1994)
5. Psycho (1960)
6. The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
7. One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest (1975)
8. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
9. Her (2013)
10. American Beauty (1999)
11. Saving Private Ryan (1998)
12. Full Metal Jacket (1987)
13. Platoon (1986)
14. 300 (2007)
15. Schindler’s List (1993)
16. Léon: The Professional (1994)
17. Kill Bill (2003)
18. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
19. The Matrix (1999)
20. X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
21. Memento (2000)
22. The Dark Knight (2008)
23. Vertigo (1958)
24. Cabin in the Woods (2012)
25. Shutter Island (2010)
26. Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001)
27. Clueless (1995)
28. (500) Days of Summer (2009)
29. 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
30. Annie Hall (1977)

I may not watch one or two of them because they'll freak me out but otherwise, I think it's a pretty good goal! Have you seen any of these movies?

  1. So I counted and I think I've seen 15 of them! But now I definitely want to see the other 15!

  2. I hate Fight Club. One of the top 2 dumbest movies I've ever watched. The Dark Knight and Memento are really good. I am also fond of 10 Things I Hate About You.

  3. 17 checked off for me. A few I will not watch - Shutter Island, Cabin in the Woods, Psycho. I don't do scary. The rest, sure I'll probably see the rest.

  4. Great list! I've seen 21 of them! My favorites are The Godfather, 500 Days of Summer, Clueless and Shawshank. My husband is obsessed with Saving Private Ryan, Platoon, Schindler's List and Momento. So many great movies!
