I feel like such a slacker
Every year around this time, I like to look at Entertainment Weekly's list of the 25 Movies You Need To See Before Oscar Night. I use it as a reminder of which movies I've seen, and usually, just how many more I should see before the big night -- or at some point over the course of the next year. This year, I think I've hit an all-time low. I've only seen THREE of the movies listed so far! Clearly, I need to head over to the movie theatre for a couple of marathons. How many have you seen?
- The Departed
- Dreamgirls
- Babel
- The Queen
- Letters From Iwo Jima
- Little Miss Sunshine
- United 93
- Little Children
- Notes on a Scandal
- Flags of Our Fathers
- The Last King of Scotland
- The Devil Wears Prada
- Borat
- Blood Diamond
- Volver
- The Pursuit of Happyness
- Venus
- Children of Men
- Pan's Labyrinth
- Half Nelson
- Thank You For Smoking
- The Painted Veil
- Stranger Than Fiction
- Hollywoodland
- For Your Consideration
I've only seen #12, 21, and 23, not even CRACKING the top ten. Sigh. How am I supposed to beat the office champ in our Oscar pool at this rate?

I guess I just see way too many movies, because I've seen all but five of those ... If you wanted to catch up, I'd recommend starting with Little Miss Sunshine and the Queen, which should be playing everywhere again thanks to Helen Mirren's big Golden Globes win
