  Rating my DVDs

  I've been watching through my DVD collection (posted in the last blog) and assigning them grades after I watch a movie. These are based on some mixture of quality, enjoyment, and other factors assessed immediately after viewing.

  My Full DVD Collection

  I don't want to go to sleep right now. A month or so back I sat down with a pencil and paper, reorganized my DVDs and wrote everything down.

  Allow me to share my list with you.

  Brian's Song remake which I mistakenly bought some time ago and have yet to even open
  Cinderella Man
  Crash
  The Dark Knight
  The Departed
  Die Hard

  Note: I tended to list boxed sets together, and individual purchases seperate. Examples: Die Hards and Rockys were x number of individual movies, whereas The Bourne Trilogy and The Godfather Trilogy came bundled.
  
  If I did the math right, total 89 movies and 11 television seasons. I was a little disappointed I hadn't reached triple digits yet, but that will come in time. Any reccomendations for glaring omissions that I should keep an eye out for will be noted.

  BTW, Please don't sneak out here and steal my movies. Thank you. (yeah, that'll totally keep them away)
