A weekly wrap-up of everything I watched at home and in-theatres for a given week. What have you seen lately?

the watchlist

Days of The Week (Films Watched Feb 2 – Feb 8)

I return to the theatre after too much time away. It caps off a week of zombies, Swedes, and surfers.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Jan 26 – Feb 1)

Lots of classics, a few more Best Picture winners, and some superheroes to keep me company on a day home sick.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Jan 19 – Jan 25)

A lighter slate than usual, but one filled with soldiers, schemers, and sound mixers.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Jan 12 – Jan 18)

A wonderful week of watching is dotted by shorts, Avengers, docs, and an idea.

A busy week leads me to wonder if the first eleven days of 2013 are signs of things to come.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Jan 1 – Jan 4)

We start the year anew with no trips to the theatre yet, but still much goodness – both new and old – watched from the comfort of my couch.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Dec 22 – Dec 31)

One last shoulder-check on 2012. Were I really an obsessive compulsive, I’d have found a way to watch ten more films!

Days of The Week (Films Watched Dec 15 – Dec 21)

I consider whether i made a wrong move in the company of Fellini, Capra, and O. Russell. Oh, and did I mention Connery in a loin cloth?

Days of The Week (Films Watched Dec 8 – Dec 14)

During a melancholy week I return to Middle Earth, complete the Hitchcock double-feature, and catch up with the best documentary of the year.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Dec 1 – Dec 7)

We’re getting into a reflective time of year folks, and the titles that make up this week’s watchlist practically glow with reflection – both for this year, and for years past.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Nov 24 – Nov 30)

There was a lot of watching this week…watching a little bit of everything. With it all came a moment where I compared this year’s tally to last year’s.

Days of The Week (Films Watched Nov 17 – Nov 23)

This week, trips to my mailbox had me feeling like a kid in some kind of store.
