For this November 2019, after the riveting success of Spookytober , I'm busting out the Four Loko and embracing my inner masculinity (it's buried there somewhere underneath my love for magical girl anime and love for spas) to prove my filmbro potential with a challenge to watch 30 brotastic films. It's hard to really describe the criteria of this one, just a lot of films and directors my fellow dudes on the site seem to embrace. A lot of them are regarded as classics or are talked about a lot, so I'm hoping that taking these films out like a bingo board will only help improve my ability to talk about films.

For this November 2019, after the riveting success of Spookytober, I'm busting out the Four Loko and embracing my inner masculinity (it's buried there somewhere underneath my love for magical girl anime and love for spas) to prove my filmbro potential with a challenge to watch 30 brotastic films. It's hard to really describe the criteria of this one, just a lot of films and directors my fellow dudes on the site seem to embrace. A lot of them are regarded as classics or are talked about a lot, so I'm hoping that taking these films out like a bingo board will only help improve my ability to talk about films.

Here are DA RULES:

1.) 30 films for the 30 days of November, though obviously I can watch more or less than 1 film a day. Criteria is vague, but looks to be films about masculinity, macho actions and dramas, acclaimed male actors & directors, and just films that seem to show up a lot on "filmbro" themed memes and lists. All must be watched between November 1 and November 30, none before, none after.

2.) Watching films is one thing, reviewing them is a whole other beast. I'm giving myself the deadline of December 5 to review them all, just in case I need to sit on one for a while or things get hectic towards the end of the month. Shooting for a paragraph (5-8 sentences), y'all know I ain't in the one-sentence shitpost game.

3.) I'm not exactly taking recommendations for this, but if you do feel there is a grievous omission (that I have not seen), feel free to comment and argue your point, I might reconsider and switch out a film. May be a better idea to recommend me a film, any film, here.

4.) An effective challenge requires positive or negative reinforcement. Since I can't really give myself a prize, the next best thing is that if I cannot complete the 30 films by the 30th, I will be forcing myself to watch 30 horrible films. I pray to every deity of mercy known to man that I don't have to do that to myself.

So without further ado...let's do this, bro.
