2012 Movie Goals

I'm not too big on new year's resolutions.  Quit smoking? Immediately, if I'd ever started.  Drink less? Um no - have we met? Go to the gym? Yeah, yeah, eventually.  But setting up a few movie-related goals... now this, I can get behind.

FIRST GOAL:

See 150 films at festivals.  Loosely:

• 50 Sundance <--saw 55
• 35 sxsw <--saw 35
• 15 Full Frame <-- SHIT - I only saw 14. Well... close enough.
• 45 TIFF  <--saw 48
• 5 Miscellaneous (AFI? Tribeca? NYFF) 17 at Tribeca,  11 at SIFF, yeah. Done.

SECOND GOAL:

See 50 films in theaters outside of festivals <--saw 70 films in theaters outside of festivals!

This might not sound like a lot, but for me, it kind of is.

THIRD GOAL:

Visit the NYC movie houses I haven't been to yet.  I am embarrassed to list how many legendary locales I've not yet visited within my seven years in the big apple.

• Maysles Cinema
• reRun Gastropub <-- did this for Extraterrestrial, just in time.
  
• Museum of Modern Art <-- did this on 3/24 for New Directors New Films
• Museum of the Moving Image <-- did this on 6/16
