While I managed to get back into the theaters for part of 2020, overall film watching still took a hit from normal. This was the year that we got much more into streaming, though we still maintain a healthy DVD\/Blu-Ray collection. For 2021, I recorded in Letterboxd<\/a>:<\/p>\n

44 movies watched.
\n14 movies watched for the first time.
\n3 movies watched in a movie theater.
\n30 movies rewatched.
\n40 movies liked. \u2764
\n24 movies (re)watched from the Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/p>\n

So MCU flicks made up over half the movies watched, both rewatches and new releases.<\/p>\n

Highest Ranking movies watched:
\n5.0 – Fellowship of the Ring<\/em>
\n4.5 – Howl’s Moving Castle<\/em>
\n4.5 – The Avengers<\/em>
\n4.5 – Captain America: Winter Soldier<\/em>
\n4.5 – The Death of Stalin<\/em>
\n4.5 – Sneakers<\/em>
\n4.5 – Black Panther<\/em>
\n4.5 – Ant-Man and the Wasp<\/em>
\n4.5 – Ice Station Zebra<\/em><\/p>\n

Lowest Ranking:
\n3.0 – Iron Man 3<\/em>
\n3.0 – Thunder Force<\/em>
\n3.0 – Aquaman<\/em>
\n3.0 – Conan the Barbarian<\/em><\/p>\n

Month with the Most Movies Seen: April (8)
\nMonths without Movies: February, August<\/p>\n
