100 Movies
Maya and I are always trying to find a good movie to watch on the weekend and we usually end up randomly picking something from Netflix Instant Watch. But we’re not just trying to numb our brains, people! We are sophisticates. Intellectuals. We want to better ourselves! So, we’ve decided to watch the top 100 movies ranked by Rotten Tomatoes (as of 10/31/10).
The rules: We both have to watch each movie. It doesn’t count if only one of us has seen it and it doesn’t count if we only kind of, sort of remember it. And we have to wach them all.
Go team!
