2017 movies had me like… (Photo Credit: Kaity Malone)
(Included with the list of titles are grades, dates, showtimes, theatre locations, and folks I saw the movies with.)
Now that I see movies as part of my job, I was easily able to break my yearly moviegoing record by September. I hope to break it again in 2018, as I hope to go more often when it is not work-related.
