*Post the movies you've watched so far this year and rate them.

*Please list the movie only, how you saw it (Theater / DVD / VHS) and rate it on a scale of 1-10.

*Please, no discussion or comments on the film itself. Keep that to individual threads on that specific film.

*This will be a way of tracking what movies you have watched throughout this year.

*As you update throughout this year, update your original thread only and then bump it. This way all your movies are contained to one post and not scattered over several.
If...
Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
Ron loves a film = don't even rent.
