Hit a milestone upon completing the last episode of FLASH GORDON’S TRIP TO MARS last night
My Letterboxd stats page, which shows that I’ve marked 10,000 films as watched, totally 12,000 hours and including the work of 3,587 directors from 108 countries. Also included are these pointless facts: I’ve watched at least one movie a week for 775 consecutive weeks (probably longer, but that’s when I started keeping track), and I’ve experienced 1,413 days on which I saw more than one movie.

Favorite 2022 movies that I caught up with this year (except Avatar, IGNORE THAT ONE!)
Master Gardener, No Bears, Catherine Called Birdy, Showing Up, How to Blow Up a Pipeline, Suzume, Aftersun, but not The Way of Water, I saw that at the end of last year like everybody else

Odd that they backed off, since that also happens to be what The Tigger Movie is about
IMDb trivia: The original trailer for the movie, as well as some of the television spots, had the song “Semi-Charmed Life” by Third Eye Blind. This had to be changed, because the song is about being addicted to crystal meth.
