While we've listed our favorite books + albums + keep a reading log of books read, we don't talk about movies much on Life in the Blog of Ghosts. Especially lately (amidst the covid pandemic) we've been watching at least 1 movie a night if not 2 or 3... since we don't leave the house much movies have become the new reality. But sometimes it seems these films just past right thru us w/o us really processing them, likely there's some great movies we've seen that ain't listed below cuz we've forgotten about them. Or there's movies that we get 10 minutes into + vaguely realize we've seen it before. So we decided to keep a viewing log which we'll try to keep updated. Netflix lets u download your streaming history (at least as far back as 2013) + u can also get your DVD history, tho you have to copy + paste so we only went as far back as end of 2019. But there's no way to see your viewing history on Criterion or other services we've used (HBO, Showtime, Amazon, Hulu). So going forward into 2021 we're gonna log our movies here. For starters here's a rough list of our favorite movies + shows that might not be listed in the viewing history. They're not necessarily in order + there might be some missing, it's a work in progress...
