this is an interesting question, Does anyone have an actual list of all the movies you have ever seen? in a lifetime? made me wonder is everyone's number in the thousands? tens of thousands?
after watching a movie I rate it online, (I also rated the movies I saw as a kid) the other day I was bored so I decided to see how many movies I had rated in total.
And it came out to 1,970 movies
(probably an average/small number to most people) but it felt like a lot. if Let's say the average movie is 1 hour and a half, that would be 2955 hours. If my calculation is correct, that's the equivalent of 124 days of movies straight. (I think)
I started to look at the list and Also found out some interesting facts of my viewing experience:
-the amount of bad movies is much higher than the amount of good movies. I don't do this on purpose, maybe i get suckered in by the trailers. I don't pick bad movies on purpose or anything. Just whatever seemed interesting at the time, the bad list is a lot bigger
-the genre with the highest ratings is comedy for some reason, the genre with the lowest ratings on my list is horror. (yet I used to be more of a horror fan, never considered myself a comedy fan, kind of odd)
-Of the whole list, the movies I remember the most are the really bad ones (non-horror), And some of the really good ones,
action movies are just a blur in my mind, they feel very repetitive and cliche. I remember action scenes from some of them, but I can't remember the story or even the actors in them. with some action movies I can't remember anything at all!
-(1 star movies are burned in my memory apparently.... I remember Everything about them) This bothers me a lot now that I think about it, I guess they pissed me of so much they got stuck in my brain.
-seems to me that the 90s was the Worst decade for movies (so far) the 90s has some of the best movies ever made, but most of the decade is full of stinkers (more than now)
the list made me realize:
comedies are the most enjoyable
action is a big waste of time
it is really hard to pick Good horror movies
most of the time animated movies are very good
movies today are not as bad as the 90s.
TL;DR I would love to know your viewing numbers and your movie viewing fun facts!
