Confessions of a movie addict
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A FAVORITES LIST... It is a list of watched movies... good or bad...
I am compiling a complete list of every movie I've watched. I am including the epics, the greats, the good, the bad and the "Omg, why did I watch that?" ;) So....this is a list of all of the movies I have watched including a few I couldn't tolerate more than 15-20 minutes.
:)
Although I was tempted to leave out more than a few...I
decided stay true to my addiction and fought the urge to conceal the worst of the worst.
This is a work in progress. They are in no particular order. I add them as they return to my reality.
To be continued...
