I am a girl of many lists.
They are my preferred method of running my life and I'm pretty sure I have a list for every thing in my life and/or brain. I watch so many TV shows and films that I lose track and forget what I have and haven't seen and so I decided to make an ongoing list of every film I watch this year as and when. For no particular reason I have decided to post it on my blog too (...I mean, why not?) The list I kept was written sporadically so I've decided to categorise them into the best (I don't believe in favourite films so expect a lot in this section), worst, ones I cannot remember watching and ones I neither loved or loathed. I've added some unsystematically placed side notes in there too for a tad more detail/background to my choice of category. Some of these I'd seen prior to this year but most (shock horror) I actually hadn't seen until this year a̶n̶d̶ ̶I̶ ̶a̶i̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶e̶v̶e̶n̶ ̶m̶a̶d̶.̶ Enjoy!!!

 - Two Night Stand
 - Gone Girl- made me feel like the most mentally stable female ever.
 - Love, Rosie- adorable.
 
The Worst
- What if
 - Endless Love- I love me some Rom-Com but this was so cheesy, melodramatic and cliché that it actually made me feel ill.
 - Carrie
 - Grown ups 2- before this I had never seen a film with no plot in it and I hope to never see one again.
 - Romeo and Juliet (2013)
 - The Truth About Emmanuel- I love Kaya Scodelario so much but this made me question whether I was watching it on mute. It was so confusing!

So that was a really long and I guess pointless blog post but I enjoyed putting my year-long list to better use than collecting dust on my phone. If you made it this far, I love you! Welcome to 2015 and I hope it treats you kindly :)

I can't believe that you managed to remember all the films you watched! I really like The Host and I quite enjoyed How I Live Now (although all the way through the film I kept thinking that this was incest!) I also really liked the Maze Runner and really need to see Love, Rosie, it looks such a cute film that I know I will love

Omg I didnt remember them, I kept a list on my phone haha I'd be super impressed if I could remember all of them!
DeleteI remember thinking the Host was good but a bit slow and then I read really bad reviews that I think clouded my overall opinion. Love Rosie was so adorable I'd defo recommend it, it's another one that didn't get good ratings but I don't care, it was one of my favourites!
Thanks for reading x
