2009 Movie and Book Completion Tab

I know its a bit late in the month for another 2009 whatever thread , but oh well.

Running off of an idea that was done last year that didn't really take off (2008 Book Completion Tab). I decided to add to it an idea that I had wanted to do myself , a Movies/TV shows watched Tab. I figured that maybe combining the 2 would spur move activity.

List any books you've finished reading or are currently reading (manga/comics/graphic novels are fine too). What movies you've recently watched (movies seen for the first time was what I had in mind). As well as any TV shows or anime series you have completed or are currently watching (or anything else that might fit in with this theme that I haven't already thought of or mentioned)

So far this year:

Movies:

Superbad($7 from Blockbuster)-watched with my gf
One Hour Photo($4 from GS a LOOONG time ago-watched with my gf

Books:

What the is a book? I swear, I haven't completed a single book in YEARS now. Although, I have an extensive backlog of Star Trek novels and even some Stephen King books lying around here SOMEPLACE. I should Craigslist them, since I doubt I'll ever read them at this point.

Does it count if we've seen the movie before? I'm going to assume that it does.

Movies:

Dexter, Season 1
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
My Best Friend's Girl
Pineapple Express
Yes Man

You can count them if you want , this whole thread idea is kinda a work in progress. Personally I would think it would be more productive to only list movies that you've seen for the first time. Then again there are a lot of movies I've never seen that I'm trying to get around to watching.

Pineapple Express
Gran Torino - great movie IMO

Might as well post my own list.

My book completion tab from last year (last year there was no movie completion tab):

Good book

Woah!! Cool thread. I guess you can count this as my tag for it. I can't believe I hadn't seen it until now. You should have had this in the OT forum.

I assumed that it would belong here , seeing how this is the "Deal/Shopping Discussions and Bragging Rights" sub-forum. Most of the other tab threads are here as well except for the Game Completion Tab. I suppose I could contact a mod and see whether it could be moved into the OT forums , or whether it belongs here.

Got a ton of books to catch up on for my classes... God this sucks.

If anyone has not read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I highly recommend it.

I wouldn't be surprised if BBY already planned on adding in places such as Big Lots are excluded from their price match policy. Given that Big Lots is carrying more and more electronics, DVDs, and PC stuff it was a matter of time. Why should BBY be expected to price match (and take a potential huge loss) to compete with a closeout store?
