30 Day Film Challenge - Day 30

Day 30 - Your Favorite Film This Time Last Year

I made it until the end!!!! 

This was another easy one.  I just googled all the films that were released in 2010 and this one popped right out at me.  And - it gave me an excuse to add these films in my list.  :)


Saved the best for last.

30 Day Film Challenge - Day 29

Day 29 - Your Favorite Film As A Kid

I was torn between two movies on this one - but I was able to file the other one, Wizard of Oz, under Day 7 - Film That Reminds You Of Your Past.

They have re-made this and although I kind of like the re-make...I love the original.

30 Day Film Challenge - Day 28

Day 28 - The Most Obscure Film You've Ever Seen

I don't watch a lot of obscure films.  I'm pretty mainstream in my movie choices - other than my horror movies.  I picked this movie because it was originally a Swedish horror movie and was a remake.  It only made about $12 million - so I'm guessing a lot of people have never seen it.  It wasn't bad.  A bit slow - but the cinematography was really good.

30 Day Film Challenge - Day 27

Day 27 - Your Favorite Independent Film

I honestly didn't know what consituted an independent film versus a regular film.  So, I googled "Independent Films" and just thought I'd see if I'd seen any of them.  Luckily, not only had I seen several of them, but one of my favorite movies was on the independent list. 


Great movie...and if you haven't seen it - a twist that you will never see coming.

30 Day Film Challenge - Day 26

Day 26 - Your Favorite Foreign Language Film

Like the Romantic and Documentary catagories, I don't watch a lot of foreign language movies.  I can actually only think of 2 movies I've watched over the past 10-15 years that are completely spoken in a foreign language...not just subtitles when the Hispanic or Japanese character comes on the screen.  One of them is The Passion of the Christ - which is an amazing movie - but it's not my favorite...probably because I ended up sobbing through the last half of the movie and I tend to watch movies to enjoy them...not to be distraught by the end of it.  So...the winner is...


Interestingly enough...both foreign language films that I have seen are Mel Gibson movies.  Just noticed that one...  Great film though.

30 Day Film Challenge - Day 25

Day 25 - Your Favorite Documentary Film

I don't watch a lot of documentaries but I will watch just about anything having to do with nature or animals.  I absolutely love the National Geographic series that they have put out.  This was not a hard decision.
