NOTE: This isn’t a perfect system. Two albums could have 6 songs that I like, but if one has 12 and the other has 13 total tracks, the one with less tracks is ranked higher, even though I might enjoy the other album more. Likewise, an album can have 4 songs I LOVE on a 12 track album, while another has 6 songs I like, but I JUST like them… What do I do with that information?

2020: Movies Seen

2020 MOVIES WATCHED: SO! I’m posting this on June 28, 2024 and… 2020 was a long time ago and I smoke a lot of weed. So here’s the ranking as best as I can remember, and the ones I can’t sorted by rememberability.

MOVIES I REMEMBER (sorted by ranking) Bill & Ted Face The Music - A (Loved it, super fun and did the original justice) The 40-Year-Old Version - A (Great movie, compelling subject matter) The New Mutants - A (I liked it! Interesting take on a comic book movie, very underrated) Hamilton - A (Was blown away, but it was the pandemic so…) Palm Springs - A- (Fun concept, well executed) I’m Thinking Of Ending Things - B+ (A movie I would have loved more in my 20s) Onward - B- (Fun!) Knives Out - C+ (Okay, but not gagged like most people were) Sonic The Hedgehog - C+ (Fun and better than expected) Birds of Prey - C- (Not bad, but mildly disappointing) Wonder Woman 1984 - F- (Pure trash, utterly disappointing)

DON’T REALLY REMEMBER, THINK I LIKED The Croods: A New Age Enola Holmes Freaky Scoob!

DON’T REALLY REMEMBER, DON’T THINK I LIKED Eurovision Song Contest The Witches

BARELY REMEMBER WATCHING, BRIAN SAYS I LIKED The Craft: Legacy

BARELY REMEMBER WATCHING, NO IDEA WHAT I THOUGHT Mulan

DON’T EVEN REMEMBER EXISTING Over The Moon The Wretched The Vast Of Night Happiest Season

HOLIDAY MOVIES THAT ARE TRASH BUT IN THE BEST WAY Christmas On The Square Hubie Halloween My movie rating system: A = Movies I would own if I still bought movies B = Movies I would recommend C = Movies I would watch again if someone wanted me to D = Movies I didn’t like but I could see why others might F = Trash, no redeeming qualities

Another year gone by! Actually another year, 2 months and 13 days gone by… Music in 2019… it was dope! I discovered lots of GREAT new albums! Didn’t bother putting a “Best Of 2019″ list, but I loved the new Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande albums. Who knew I’d be such a pop queen in my 40s? Lizzo was EVERYTHING! Solid albums by The Head And The Heart, Pronoun and The Strumbellas. An AMAZING new album by The National who is probably my current favorite artist/band of this era. And possibly discovered my new favorite band of the next era: Cigarettes After Sex. I feel if, one day, a NEW artist can crack this top 20 list, it’s them!

Speaking of which, it’s MIND-BOGGLING to see my ALL TIME TOP 20 played artists hasn’t changed much since I started keeping track in 2014... 

See image:

But I guess this is going back to 2008 and I just don’t think I listen to music as much as I did... No longer having my mindless data entry job that basically paid me to listen to podcasts and music for 40 hours a week. *shrug* 

So yeah, that’s my year in music. I hopped back on doing my whole 28 Day Playlist thing... Where I cycle new albums through a playlist where they stay in my regular rotation for 28 days, then rate (log number of “hearts” in Spotify) and keep the liked songs in general rotation. I’m an insane person.
