Welcome back to The 300, a weekly feature recounting my attempt to see 300 movies in theaters in the year 2018. Each week I’ll be watching new releases, classics, and hidden gems, trying to explore the many joys of cinema.
As always, there are three rules in The 300:
- The movie must be at least 40 minutes long, meeting the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' definition of a feature film.
- I must watch the movie at a movie theater, screening room, or outdoor screening venue.
- While I can watch movies I've seen before 2018, I cannot count repeated viewings of the same film in 2018 multiple times.
As we hit week three, so far no signs of burnout, and I’ve gotten a little bit more ahead of schedule. It was unplanned, but I wound up watching three animated movies this week, including Mary and the Witch's Flower, the first film from Studio Ponoc, a new Japanese animation studio founded by Studio Ghibli alums.
And so, onward.
