I'm at 8897, so this year I'll break the 9k bar. Suck on that for a while. Over 9000, over nine thousand movies. How many have you seen?

How much kino have you wacthed?
that's frickin horseshit. I'm 30 years of age and I've watched a few hundreds. there's literally no person who have seen that many movies. I refuse to believe it.
Roger Ebert watched over 9000. Why couldn't I?
You could but why would you want to unless you were being paid? I remember Barry Norman saying the worst part of the job was being obligated to watch every movie in its entirety regardless of quality.
Because that would either make you a neet or a critic homosexual either way a huge loser.
That's one movie every day for around 24 years with no days off. I doubt professional reviewers have even seen that many.
Roger Ebert did it (while banging ebony godesses to the left and right at the same time)
probably a few hundred. couldn't imagine seeing that many shitty movies. what a waste of time. quality over quantity any day.
>few hundred
I googled the word "few" and according to them it means 1-2. Is that right? Have you only watched 100-200 movies? How old are you? 25? 26?
200-300 tops
I watch perhaps 10-20 a year. so that'll be perhaps 20-50 movies all and all. My favourite is Star Wars and Lord of the Rings
I'm at 4435 feature-length movies. I maybe watch around 200-250 new movies each year and some tv series here and there. I'm 36.
how far through https://boxd.it/pGfHO$QdRGfzt2wf6Uwna5 do you make?
105/110
I haven't seen pic related.
there are more levels, that is only the first, it's in the description
Yes, but I'm an idiot. How many percentages (or color) to pass?
early on its the black but when you reach level 20-30? you need to have cleared some of the other colors. If I were u I'd keep a watch for what colors I don't clear.
shamefur dispray
haha, there's a few good one there Allegro Non Toppo, Swimming Pool, From Dusk Till Dawn, The Tit and the Moon, so 3 is rather surprisingly low. Did you clear everything green before that? If so, that is very impressive. And how about 25b? If you pass that you'll pass the 25th level anyway
cairo station is great for what it is (an early egyptian/semi-british classic) but only alright for those who isn't interested in that kind of bicyclian trainwreckian crimedrama
Do you guys actually enjoy movies? it seems at this point it's just mindless consumption. When i watch a really great film I get catharsis that lasts a week and I don't want to taint it or think about anything else for a week.
even just a good film I like to reflect on for a day or two. Jesus.
Most movies are average, bruh. Sadly the days in which I watch a masterpiece are long gone.
I agree. There are exceptions like actors or writers trying to study film, but bloating numbers is just an intellectual pissing contest. Watching movies just to watch movies takes away from the movie experience.
helped that I had a film class this semester which got me to watch more films. On top of that I'm taking a more proactive effort to watch more films this year
can you remember these kinos though?
Recently I was watching a movie and halfway I realized I've watched it before...
I've been thinking about how it's funny how even after watching a movie I won't remember 100% of it. I am not a computer so if you ask me what a character was wearing in a scene I won't remember. These movies are out there but no one remembers them 100%. Idk how to properly articulate myself or where I am going with this but it's something I think about. There are some movies I really really love but after watching them they become just a memory. When I'm on my deathbed I will probably be in too much pain and misery to remember the movies I enjoyed. I am not a fan of how we experience life in this linear fashion as time progresses. I wish the pleasure I have from watching the movie is something that would stay with me forever.
I don't remember what I ate on this day 10 years ago, but it made me the man I am today.
I've seen about 1000 movies.
I have 2000 films reviewed on Letterboxd.
I stream about 108 movies a year (mostly B-movies or DTV stuff) and watch some extra myself.
If you include porn films and scenes then I'm up at around 1000 movies watches. I can't imagine reaching 3-4k. How is that possible without counting pornmovies?
But are you actually watching the porn movies or just skipping until you find a good pose?
my ocd compells me to watch them from the start to the beginning, and after that's done, and only then, I am allowed to release my ejaculations.
A true coomer. There should be a porn letterboxd where you log the videos you've jerk offd to.
I record my stats in a spreadsheet
I couldn't even guess but around 3000 would be en estimate. I could probably get to 1000 on franchises alone.
>25+ bond movies
>9 Star Wars
>dozens of capeshits
>4 lethal weapons
>5 Indiana Jones etc etc.
>I could probably get to 1000 on franchises alone
>proceeds to mention 50? movies
lol not even close
counting horror-franchises
>ANOES
7 movies
>Friday 13th
12
>Halloween
12
>TCM
9
>Hellraiser
10
>Leprecahun
6
>Chucky
8
>Saw
6
>Scream
5
>NotlD/Rotld
10
that is less than 100
where's the other 800+ movies?
Lone wolf and cub (6), die hard (5), Beverly hills cop(3), maybe seen 20 of the Carry On films, 10 or so zatoichis, 5 evil dead, 15 or so hammer movies, a similar amount of universal monsters, 20 plus godzilla, 5 rambo, all the star trek movies, death wish 1-4, police academy (6), Robocop (4), Terminator (6).
Theres some more and that's just series with 4 or more movies I've watched all or some of. I'd be here all night if I started on trilogies or movies with one sequel.
ok, thanks for proving my point. that is around 400-500 movies in total
You think I couldn't post another 500?
limiting yourself to english-movies-only does impact the amount of available movies to watch, but I guess you've establish yourself as being a "franchiser", so to answer your question I'd say you don't really have to
My point was that its very easy to overestimate stuff like this.
>My point was that its very easy to overestimate stuff like this.
This. gays are always overestimating their stats.
>oh, I've never measured, but I'm sure I'm like 1,90 tall and my dick is at least 20 centimeters lol.
Bruh he listed a decent amount you are winging about O(2n) vs O(n) homosexual.
>watching movies when I was young
>a big event I am looking forward to
>watching movies now
>watch it like its my job so I can strike it off my watchlist
>actually feel relief when I finished watching
My family preferred watching movies to talking so during my childhood and teens I watched a lot.
Now I torrent and watch 2-3 a day while I work. I’ve probably seen around 6000-7000 films. At least 600 from Hong Kong/taiwan alone. Film obsessives know that sub 1k is rookie numbers, barely anything that isn’t mainstream.
To have anything more than foundational knowledge of film 1k is the minimum
>At least 600 from Hong Kong/taiwan alone
whats your fav catiii?
Naked Killer is peak, Robotrix, there’s an especially nasty one called Women on the Run that excels at the drama and grime. Revanchist is another run and gun winner with one of the best ridiculous fights in HK history. 21 Red List too, but not cat III. Another Piece of Romance wins as well because it’s a castration film where a dudes dick gets fed to ducks
>Robotrix
yeah, you're approved, I love the villain in that flick, I'm surprised you didn't mention the less obscure ones like Ebola Syndrome, The Boxer's Omen or Riki-Oh which have been spammed on Cinemaphile more than those you named
Ah yeah those are classics, I don’t care for Ebola Syndrome, it’s excessive but doesn’t deliver the giddy insanity of Robotrix or Boxer’s Omen. I generally classify BO and its ilk like Seeding of a Ghost or Black Magic (or a deep cut CAT IV like Blood Maniac) as black magic films over CAT IIIs as the intent is different. Same for Riki, a manga adaptation first imo. But love it to pieces.
I’m watching through the SWV catalog at the moment to round out my education in seediness. If you’re into film, find categories and dive deep. It’ll pay dividends
>Ebola Syndrome
>giddy insanity
I can see where you going since the movie doesn't have any "supernatural" or fantasy-like elements. Yet, I do find the honest depiction of a nut going supercrazy and whom spews out his hate onto the world by doing every crime imaginable pretty insane on that alone.
>Black magic
I do agree with you there. chinese folklore encorporates a lot of themes and genres which makes it seems "crazier" to westernes than it actually is.
>categories
spot on, I love all the weird periods/eras which propelled countless of copycats-films such as giallos, the yakuzas gangster flicks of the 70s, the italian zombie-horrors of the 80s, women prison-films, the nazi-experiment camps of the 70s, rain forest cannibals-movies and all that
it boggles my mind how many times people are willing to revisit and reexplore a concept for the sake of earning some potential money
I don't know, a bunch. I don't keep track because I'm not an autist.
what app is this? is there an apple-version of it?
SIMKL, take a full day and add everything you've ever watched
Easily over 5000 in my life time, I count movies I saw in passing on tv as well.
I've only watched a single new film this year, The Iron Claw. It was pretty good. I might watch Dune 2 sometime down the road when a decent stream is up.
Most everything looks like pure shit and woke garbage.
I'm an autist so I have been keeping track the past 5 years. I'm at around 700, but I was NEET for 3 of those 5 years and lockdowns happened too. Since those two things are no longer a factor in my life, the amount of movies I watch have decreased massively. Which is a good thing, as the amount of movies I used to watch wasn't healthy.
>2-3 movies per week is unhealthy
The absolute state of Cinemaphile
What way do you watch movies that it keeps a constant count in one singular value. I've probably seen 5 to 8k but I've watched them in so many different ways its impossible to keep track
>watched them in so many different ways its impossible to keep track
what do you mean???
different format
>dvd vs vhs vs cinema
different cut/language
>directors cut, original language
ways..
>rewatches, with/without friends
???
You are still well behind this guy: https://letterboxd.com/PunQ/
Jesus Christ man how old are you? That is 2 years of constant 24 hour movies assuming the average length of a movie is 2 hours.
Personally, I'm probably around 250 movies lifetime at 19, watched around 150 shows.
I've probably watched 250 movies in the last 3 years according to my notes. Though a lot of them were just rewatches with a friend. I probably watch ~2 movies a week. One with a friend and one by myself.
Well, which was the best one?
nine million
>8897
How did you watch so fricking many? There are barely 2000 movies worth seeing
Currently at 522
I wasn't really into movies and watched them very rarely until recently
I have seen over 100 last year
>I watch movies
OP here
I inflated my number. I'm at around or just above 2500 movies watches. And I'm nearly 40 years. I'm going to bed now. Well, first I have to take two shots of vodka. And yeah, I think I'm gonna turn on the TMNT-movie (the original) so I have something comfy to sleep to.
i watch like 5 movies a year. most of my time is spent shitposting on Cinemaphile and gooning. i finally finished s1 of true detective after procrastinating for 10 years so im proud of myself.
