Apparently I do still have a life, though I would argue that these movies are not all created equal and this is not a valid sampling. For example, the Lord of the Rings trilogy does not in any way contribute to "not having a life, " and should in fact be required viewing for everyone. :-)

Others, I totally agree, are validly placed on the list. "Kingpin" made want to gouge my eyes out. It represents 113 minutes of my life that I will never get back. As for "Evil Dead" and Evil Dead 2," I can only plead "high school slumber party" and try to forget.....

I scored 72. "Reign of Fire" is the worst movie on there that I watched, I enjoyed both "Calendar Girls" and "Shaun of the Dead".

High score = have young children and a dvd rental subscription.

50 for me. I'm with you on LOTR. If you counted all the times I've re-watched those and Princess Bride, you'd reach the conclusion that I have no real life.

Good grief. I've seen 47 of them and most of them I've never heard of. I reckon I do have a life, albiet a sheltered one. :)
