2017 saw a slight downturn in movie watching for me, down 5 from the year before. I managed to watch 83 movies last year, my sixth consecutive year under 100. Again, many things contributed to this, chiefly the insane amount of TV I’ve been watching, the greater effort made towards going out for walks, and the awful amount of time I spend either at work or getting to and from work.
