A LIST OF 233 MOVIES TO RENT!
HomeJournalBioComicsMusicPixLinksEmail
 3 movies left, but I can't find 'em at my local video stores.

The purpose of this movie challenge is: 1) When I walk into a video store, I always forget what movies I wanted to rent and 2) I have trouble making myself rent movies that I've heard are good and/or important, but seem intimidating or boring. On 01/21/2001, I printed out a list of the Top 50 movies by genres (Action, Adventure, Animation, Comedy, Crime, Drama, Fantasy, Film-Noir, Horror, Musical, Mystery, Romance, Sci-Fi, Thriller, War and Western) as voted by Internet Movie Database users and decided that I would see every movie on the list--I did omit a few titles that were actually TV shows. If a title is red, then you should see it! Check out my other movie challenges: IMDB Top 250, IMDB Top 50 by Genres, IMDB Top 50 by Decade, Academy Award Winners, Cannes Winners, Favorite Directors (A-C), Favorite Directors (F-G), Favorite Directors (H), Favorite Directors (K-L), Favorite Directors (P-T) and Favorite Directors (W).
