Help me decide...
« on: January 12, 2012, 04:00:42 PM »
OK everyone... help me decide. I keep going back and forth between 3 ideas for this weekend. Tomorrow is Friday the 13th so I would kinda like to do some sort of theme for this weekend's watching. And I just can't seem to decide what I want to do between...

Friday the 13th Movie Marathon
I have all the Friday the 13th movies I could watch... including the remake movie. But the downside to this is I seen and reviewed these movies multiple times over the years. So it kinda feels like been there... done that.

Friday the 13th: The Series Marathon
I could start an episode review thread for Friday the 13th: The series. This is something I been wanting to do for some time now as I only ever saw odd episodes here and there. And don't think I ever saw any episodes from the third (final) season. The problem with this one is... first of all I would never complete all 3 seasons within the 3 day weekend. Plus going by the first season that I watched.... some of the episodes is less then stellar so afraid I may get a bit bored with it before the weekend is over.

Unwatched Horror Movies
While this one has less to do with Friday the 13th then the previous two ideas... when I think Friday the 13th I think horror. As of right now I have about 300 horror movies I never watched. So I have more then enough for the weekend. Downside for this one would be... first of all... since I never seen these movies before I could end up watching some stinkers. Second... since I never seen these movies before... I can't say that they are truly horror movies... only go by the genre that DVD Profiler has for them... or the fact that they are in one of those cheap horror movie box sets... but I learned from experience neither of those reasons really mean some of the movies are horror.

At this moment... as I type this I would rank my choices as...
1. Unwatched Horror Movies
2. Friday the 13th: The Series
3. Friday the 13th movies

But as I said... I keep going back and forth on it. So please... help me to decide on something good for this weekend.

Well, IMHO you should put priority on downsizing your unwatched pile!  ;)

I would prefer the "Unwatched Horror Movies"  :)

No question - watch something you haven't seen before.

You have already indicated you think you might lose interest in the Friday the 13th series. You have a much larger selection of unwatched horror movies to keep you from getting bored.

Another vote for the above trend. If you've considered it, then it's a perfect opportunity to dig into them.
I have a collection.
It can be found here.
No need to check it often.
I update it only twice a year!

You have watch a lot of TV serie recently and I rarely buy TV serie,
You have many unwatched horror film and I buy horror film,
So I will be selfish and request that you help me to spend some money...
