30 Movies in 30 Days Project 2018
The idea is to watch a movie every day for 30 days in the month of September. The only rule is I cannot have seen it before.
I had a hard time coming up with an appropriate theme for this year's project that gave enough movies to fill the month (that I was interested in even seeing) and were easily accessible without paying too much in rental fees. That made me think about what I even started this project for, which was to put a dent in my Netflix queue, so this year I decided to go back to this project's roots and just watch whatever random movie I felt like watching that day, so long as I hadn't seen it before. Preferably from my various streaming queues, but I wasn't opposed to DVDs or On Demand.
