That got me thinking...
What if I forced myself to only watch movies I haven't seen before? Can it be done? I decided to find out...
It's January 12th, 2015 and so far I haven't watched a single movie that I've seen before. Believe it or not, it's already been pretty tough.
For the first few days of the year, I was traveling. Did a lot of driving. Saw family. Enjoyed the holidays. I avoided temptation. Once I got back to Houston, though, I decided to see if I was up to the challenge. I rented THE EQUALIZER. I really enjoyed it. One new, unseen movie down. How many to go?

This past weekend, DirecTV turned on all of its movie channels for free. All of them. ALL of them. Thank God the NFL Playoffs were on. So many movies. So many I'd seen before. On Saturday I rented THE GUEST from The Redbox. I wanted to watch GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY again, but nope...I went with THE GUEST. It was pretty good. And I hadn't seen it.

I took THE GUEST back on Saturday night and rented FINDERS KEEPERS. I haven't seen a good killer doll movie in a while. I guess I still haven't. It was okay. I didn't realize it was made for SyFy Channel. I probably would have skipped it, had I known that... But hey, hadn't seen it! ;)

On Sunday morning I was looking for something to watch and DirecTV was offering a lot of classics I'd already seen. Wait, what's that? SNAKE EYES with Nicolas Cage? Never saw it! I guess we'll go with that... Not bad. But oh God. So. Much. Overacting.

I settled for DJANGO UNCHAINED. Why? Because I hadn't seen it.
[ The D Is Silent... ]
At least until Friday the 13th comes around and there's a marathon on! Am I crazy? We're about to find out...
