I saw 25 films in December. I was trying to make it to 200 for the year (accomplished) and had some time off work, which means I can lay around all day reading and watching movies. It's rough. Plus, we had a major ice storm that hit town, knocked power out everywhere but a local multiplex had theirs so I hung out there a lot.
I watched Blow Up for the first time and didn't like it at all! Wow, is that film dated and overrated. I didn't like the much lauded I'm Not There either. I rewatched No Country for Old Men (perfect!) and really loved the very dark Before the Devil Knows You're Dead.

You watched some "interesting" movies. Was Tin Man the one on the SciFi channel? I watched those three episodes all in one day and thought it was pretty cool.
Yeah, I kind of cheated and counted TIN MAN--heck it was 5+ hours so figured it should count for a movie!
By "interesting", do you mean good stuff you want to check out? It was a varied month trying to reach the magical 200.
"Interesting" means there were a couple I would like to watch and a few I can't believe you sat through.
Name some names! I can guess which ones you "can't believe" I watched since I know how you feel about romantic comedies. When I saw ENCHANTED there was nothing but me and preteen girls, ha. But I wanted to see the happiest, feel goodingest (I know that's not a real word) movie out there...and it had Amy Adams in it.
