Now that I've fulfilled all of my requests, I'll hang about for you guys to catch up.
I've shortened my to-watch list by ten, which is pretty good doing, since I added three during the week too. My original list is updated.

Oh, man, you have no idea.
I still have thirty-five more to post from January.
I like to leave it for a few days to let it settle and gather my thoughts, but they do tend to pile up.

I know what you mean, by sometimes wanting to let your thoughts settle. Thing is, though, that if I didn't write my Proview right after viewing a film, or at the most a few hours, my fresh intuition would wither away, and I'd be lost for words. I do, however, sometimes change my star rating, which you can check in my final monthly watch list.
Anyway, anybody ready for new deals yet?

Anyway, anybody ready for new deals yet? Not me, not yet. I took a break from the deals this weekend to catch up with my Netflix films. Hopefully this week I can finish my deals, though it will be difficult to find time for "Kagemusha". Maybe... Monday: "The Roaring Twenties" Tuesday: "The Phantom of Liberty" Wednesday: n/a Thursday: "King Kong" Next weekend: "Kagemusha" It will be a miracle if that goes as planned. I just can't take on any new films until next weekend.

I can't wait for your viewing of The Roaring Twenties. IMO, it's a masterpiece social commentary of it's time.

Jesus; you people. I was done in a matter of seven days. And I had the most to watch. And I'm sounding obnoxious.

Ok, my commitments are done. I'm ready for requests.
But....shouldn't the rules be that I can now take "deals" only from the people who have watched the films I requested toward them? I think that should be the case.
Anyway, if that's how we'll do it, then I should now only take requests from Mick.

Ok, I guess I'll be the one to bring this back.
Mick: I request from you "The Killer" (John Woo) and "Nil By Mouth" (Gary Oldman).
