"If you've seen over 110 movies, you have no life. Mark the ones you've seen. There are 240 movies on this list. Put your score in header and re-post."

More than 110 is no life? I suspect I already know how this will turn out... (snagged from bec76)

Huh, lower than I expected, actually. However, the list was really lacking in indie films and queer films (which are a decent-sized chunk of what I watch), and had fewer kids movies than I expected (another large chunk), while being rather overloaded with films I think of as belonging primarily to the generation after mine (like the American Pie and Scary Movie series).

Just out of curiosity, here's the last 25 films I requested from Netflix (excluding TV shows and documentaries, which cumulatively make up a huge chunk of my queue):
Waking Life
Nightwatch
Dorian Blues
The Matador
The Thief Lord
CSA: Confederate States of America
School Daze
Zathura
Get on the Bus
Bamboozled
Five Children and It
5 Children and It (different version)
Good Night and Good Luck
Nanny McPhee
Cannibal the Musical!
Howl's Moving Castle
The Ladykillers
The Ladykillers (different version)
Arsenic and Old Lace
Outrageous
Simply Irresistible
Death and the Compass
Adventures of Buckaroo Bonzai
Dawn of the Dead
Camp

Wow. That's going all the way back to May 16th, and I get six disks at a time on my part of the queue (we've got it divided between me and Bec and Jer) -- It's amazing how much of my queue really is shows and documentaries -- right now it's about 5 out of every six disks, it looks like. This doesn't include the movies that Bec and Jer have gotten on their queue, though, which I also often watch before we return them, and it also doesn't include movies I've caught on cable, or borrowed from Bec and Jer, since I don't have a simple way of finding my history in that regard. I think it's telling, though, that of those past 25 movies, which are probably reasonably representative of my viewing habits, only two (Night Watch and Dawn of the Dead, if they indeed mean the same ones, since there are multiple movies by each of those titles) are on the 240-movie list above.

I must be bored, because I'm getting waaaaaay too analytical about this.
