Hey, you guys, welcome back to The 300, a recurring feature on my perilous attempt to watch 300 movies in theaters in the year 2018. I’ll be watching new releases, classics, hidden gems, and festival films to experience the wide world of cinema in all its forms. I hope there’s something here for you to enjoy and share as well.
As always, there are three rules for The 300:
- The movie must be at least 40 minutes long, meeting the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ definition of a feature film.
- I must watch the movie at a movie theater, screening room, or outdoor screening venue.
- While I can watch movies I’ve seen before 2018, I cannot count repeated viewings of the same film in 2018 multiple times.
The Japan Cuts Film Festival is in full swing, and I was able to catch two movies during the opening weekend. I’ll be catching two more this weekend as the festival closes, including the latest film by Hausu director Nobuhiko Obayashi.
Apart from that, just too much humidity and a bout of burnout on the road to 200 movies. I’m so close to the double Benjamins I can almost taste it. It tastes like bifocals and kites. It is not pleasant. Sort of the like the current stock price of MoviePass. (Come on, baby, just hold out for three more months.)
And so, onward.
