Listed below are the 73 films I have seen so far in 2005: "so far" because it's only 29 December, and I will likely get two or three more in before the ball drops on Dick Clark. [posting updated 31 December, 9:00 p.m.]

This list shows films released in 2005 that I have seen in theatres; rentals and 2004 releases are not included. If you're wondering why I don't just download them it's because, first, I don't think it's right to steal movies that are easily available, especially when I get so much enjoyment from them. Secondly, film is a communal experience that is deeply diminished without a big screen, immersive sound, and audience reaction. TV shows, which I am already paying for anyway, are open season for me on Bit Torrent.
