Movies 2011

by abbamoses

Here is a mostly complete list of the movies we watched in the past year.
Netflix is kind enough to keep a record of all your rentals, so this list wasn’t difficult to compile. We hardly ever go to movie theaters anymore; we watched all of these at home on DVD.
Rankings are approximate and could vary drastically from one day to the next. Within a category, the movies aren’t in any particular order. Usually we’ve read reviews and heard something about a movie before we rent it, so we end up liking the large majority of those we rent. The movies in the “No” category were definite disappointments. Most of the movies in “Reruns” are favorites, ones we come back to repeatedly. Anything not in the “Reruns” bin is a movie that we saw for the first time in 2011. Yes, it’s true, we’d never seen North by Northwest before this year.
