Need Some Help / Suggestions (WARNING: EPIC LIST AHEAD)
Ok guys - here's another "give me a hand" thread.
As some of you might know, I'm graduating high school this year, in about 10 days. I'm not going off to university just yet: I'm staying home for a year to work / accumulate money / get some of my many film projects off the ground / build an acting resume / ect. But on top of all that, I have another major goal for this year. Like many of you, I have a pretty decent sized DVD collection...it's nothing compared to a lot of the folks around here, but it's still a pretty solid size. Now, my problem - and I've gotten a lot better then I used to be - is that I buy far, far more movies than I have time to watch. Therefore, a whole bunch of movies have accumulated on my shelves that I've never even taken out of the case. My goal? I want to have watched everything that I own before I go away to school in about a year + a month. It should be more than doable...I mean, there are a lot, but it's a manageable number for sure. I'd shudder to think what Urge or Zwoti's list of unseen films must looks like...yikes. Anyway, if I post the list here, would you guys be willing to skim through it and suggest some that I bump to the top of the pile? It would be highly appreciated! List to come shortly...
