  250 or so movies we have seen


that is, the movies we have seen since we entered the world of home theater
(or, RE-entered, in my case)...
this is another list i was mentioning to someone the other day, so, wanted to
post...


ok, so, the story is something like this...

may 25th, 2002, we got a free dvd player... at this time, our tv was mainly
only used for video games and nasatv during shuttle missions, we had a vcr but
didn't use it for much...
coincidentally, this is also the day we got our first dreameye, so, the dvd
player was ignored...

then, some time in november 2002, someone loaned us three dvd's (reservoir
dogs, a beautiful mind, zoolander)... we decided to see what all the fuss was
about...
eventually, we bought a couple of our own (fight club, the matrix, wargames,
which is also the first commentary we listened to), later on, we got a
"ht-in-a-box", then in june of 2003, we started seriously building a home
theater...

just on a whim, back in the first days of all this, we started actually
jotting down each movie we watched... we have continued to add to this list,
every movie we watch, then, at some point, we started dating each entry...
this is all kept in a database that we each have a copy of on our psion...

so, here is the list... there are about 250, a little less or a lot less,
depending on how you choose to count them (different versions of the same
movie, etc.)...

and, btw, i will refrain from adding other comments in the database this list
came from, such as what we thought of the movie, why we saw wanted to see it,
what format and aspect ratio it was in, which ones we own, etc.... you will
also occasionally see one labelled [him] or [her], which means we did not
watch it together... and there are one or two marked with the name of a movie
theater in brackets, which means we actually went out to see it...

the dated entries come first and the rest are alphabetically listed...
