Hey I created a Letterboxd account, Havo Still setting it up. My movie tastes seem to be a little different than most of y'alls here. My fav Genre is Film Noirs, I love old movies mainly because they rely more on a good story and not so much on sex and action. I love mysteries also and my taste in comedies is somewhat prudish I guess you could say. Not a big fan of slapstick or just crude stuff. Anyways looking forward to checking out some of you guys stuff.

Letterboxd helps with that tbh. I've watched way more movies so far this year than I usually do. Creating little challenges for yourself or finding community challenges on letterboxd helps a lot

EXAMPLE. Sugarboogerz and I already decided to do this June genre challenge thing for July, but for that month we went through each genre and added either the highest rated movie neither of us had seen OR the most popular move neither of us had seen

So the most popular animated (Moana) or the highest rated animated (Grave of the Fireflies). We went with Grave of the Fireflies, something I would've likely never watched but now I'm excited to. It was fun to force ourselves to always choose one of the two no matter what it was

Or join FE Watches with us! Good way to commit to watching some movies you otherwise definitely wouldn't have

Ranking is one of my favorite things as well! I often do marathons of directors and then rank their films afterwards. Have done it so far with;

-Stanley Kubrick (my first full-viewing marathon)
-Sofia Coppola
-Gregg Araki

Am planning on doing it with Koreeda films soon, others I have planned to marathon include Wong Kar Wai, Denis Villeneuve, Luca Guadagnino, Paul Thomas Anderson, Gaspar Noe, Lars Von Trier, David Lynch, etc.

Am actually gonna add my rankings on my Letterboxd lists!

I hope, wherever he is, he's proud of me

I don't like the rating system on Letterboxd.

I need more than 5 stars, I'd much prefer 10 stars, I wind up giving everything 3 stars. lol.

The thing is if it's a 1 or 2 star movie, there's a good chance I turn it off and don't bother to finish it. So
