I love movies, always have, always will. I love good movies even more! So, I decided it was time to make sure I've seen what's commonly accepted as the 100 greatest, as decided by the AFI. Some of the movies on the list I've seen a million times, some I've seen maybe once when I was little. With the help of my streaming subscription to Netflix, and getting my little red envelopes in the mail too, I will definitely conquer this list - and I can't wait! Please feel free to watch along or add comments about your movies as I watch them! Get the popcorn and milkduds ready!

First 2 weeks - Ben Hur, Spartacus, Swing Time and more...

I watched a few movies over the past few weeks, including:

Ben Hur - I saw this once when I was a kid, but watched it again and so far is my favorite that I've watched on the list so far.  Amazing story, a must watch.

Do The Right Thing - Great story, great soundtrack... I love watching and picking out some familiar faces and realizing this is how they got their start, or at least one of their earliest movies.

Swing Time - Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire... awesome, and so simple. Great movie.

Spartacus - classic story, and so many modern movies have taken themes from this movie. This was the 'Gladiator' of 1960.  Especially love Tony Curtis in this...



UP NEXT: Easy Rider
