Why do you geeks jot everything down? Do you have a word file that you put all this stuff in?
I know it makes it easier to not forget anyone, but going off of what you remember is so much better for me.
Jeff Bridges - True Grit
Christian Bale - The Fighter
Cate Blanchett - Blue Jasmine
Sally Hawkins - Blue Jasmine
Leonardo DiCaprio - The Wolf of Wall Street
Bill Murray - St. Vincent
Marion Cotillard - Two Days, One Night
Emma Stone - La La Land
Sandra Huller - Toni Erdmann
Hailee Steinfeld - Dickinson ***
HM: Reese Witherspoon - Wild (ARGHHHH.... just misses)
***If doesn't count, then her in True Grit.

I know it makes it easier to not forget anyone, but going off of what you remember is so much better for me. Can be hard to remember when you watch a lot of things. Jotting them down is the best way to recall them later and what you liked about them and how you felt about them when you initially put them in that list. When you watch 90+ movies a year remembering without some form of visual aid would be incredibly hard. Even after writing them all down I can't remember most of my lineups from memory after I get past #2-3. |
