AFI 100 - The first of the super listy posts

"My friend Pete and I are doing this thing where every night we are going to watch one of AFI's top 100 movies."

"How many you going though?"

"Well I only have Star Wars and Tootsie, so we just keep watching those two over and over."

Instead of unattainable, short-term New Years Resolutions this year, I'm resolving to participate in the 101 in 1001 project (more about this in a future post). I haven't completed my list, but one of my items is definitely to watch all of AFI's top 100 movies so I'm parking the list here in this post to update over the next 1001 days. I love movies and we go a lot but I feel like I've missed out on some of the classics!

Wish me luck.
