Films Seen In 2011 Part 1

By: Coheed 2.5

This year, I’m continuing to note down all the films and any other works I’ve watched like last year. This time however, I am not just including the ones I’ve seen for the first time, but all of them. Also for this year I’m adding additional information, such as the country the film is from, and dividing what I’ve watched by month (this first part will hopefully cover January to August, or as close to it as possible).
