I'm pretty sure you have to watch the whole thing. It's made me stick with movies I would have definitely switched off if I hadn't been doing the challenge

But I only include films I watch all the way through, even if this means I force myself to finish watching some utter shit just to add it to the list.

Nuns on the Run. Funny as hell, and with two charming leads- Eric Idle and Robbie Coltraine. This one holds up much better than A Fish Called Wanda, in my opinion. And that shower scene
Oddly, it got mediocre reviews. Dunno why. I thought it was brilliant. And that shower scene
This was also the first time I'd ever seen Robbie Coltraine in a film, and I've liked him ever since. And that shower scene
Bolt! A very funny, very touching (without being too overly sentimental) film with superb animation, brilliant characters, and incredible voice acting. As good as any Pixar film (and in fact Pixar's John Lassester had a hand in it). Made me laugh, made me cry. Can't ask for more than that.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

I have no idea what number I'm on, I stopped counting a while after I met the challenge, but we just watched "Howl" and I enjoyed it very much

eleventy-seven: A Boy and His Dog
Kind of cheesy and amateurish, but not without charm. Held up by the strength of the story and dialogue, which was kept fairly faithful to Harlan Ellison's original story upon which the film is based. Reading some reviews, it seems people believe this to be a very strange, peculiar, or outrageous story and film. It doesn't seem strange at all to me. I guess I'm used to this sort of thing. But it was fun. Notable for a young Don Johnson (of Miami Vice fame) in the lead role, although 1) he was too old to play this character as written in Ellison's story and 2) the dog was a better actor in this film than he was.
