I know!!.. it's 50/50 between A Better Life and Hachiko for me. I'm so glad I watched it home, I would've looked so ridiculous sobbing outside the theater.
I don´t dare to watch it, after the ending of Marley and Me I´m never watching another sad movie with a dog

__________________ Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted
I used to watch a lot of movies, but in the last couple of months I've put my focus on books instead. But now I want to watch more movies, and this is a great challenge for that.

3. I'm Still Here (2010)
4. Frost/Nixon (2008)

09. code unknown [an older michael haneke film. even when his movies completely disturb me, i can't stop watching them. even when I have the feeling i'm not understanding all of the nuance, or maybe because of that, i find his point of view fascinating..]

Ugh... I was hoping this thread would turn into more of a 'movie discussion' thread. I know the idea here is to get people to watch movies, but we already have a thread where people just list the movies they see. I wish people would at least grade or rank the films they've seen, if they don't want to write out their thoughts about it.
MyNameIs...perhaps you could visit the Films Lovers Thread - there is a great dialogue there between film lovers about what they've watched, what they thought, what moved them etc. in fact it's how I ended up at this thread. if you're looking for a discussion about film, i think it's the best thread here at tFS to check out.
personally I think this thread is a mix between listing movies watched and discussing them. it is also, uniquely, a bit of a motivation tool - a challenge, as it clearly says - to keep everyone on track and excited to watch film....hopefully receive some recommendations, inspiration, ideas etc from fellow viewers. some people are already rating their films or giving little reviews (i have written a few small things beside some titles). personally i don't feel comfortable 'rating' films as this is not how my mind works when i watch one....and i couldn't possibly come up with a number on a scale to represent how i feel about the film... i also don't possibly know how i'd rank them as it's all so relative and spontaneous...
i think this is more than just listing movies you see...
