this week on 100 Films

Just one post on 100 Films in a Year again this week, and it wasn't even a film review. Must try to rectify that soon...





More next Sunday.

Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

11 new additions this week, one an upgrade from Blu-ray to Blu-ray, which makes for a net total of 10 — and that means I land on exactly 2,500 titles in my collection! Mindboggling. In just a couple of weeks, we'll find out exactly how many of those were added this year — it's felt like rather a lot...

Number of titles in collection: 2,500 [up 10]
Of which DVDs: 1,081 [up 1]
Of which Blu-rays: 1,419 [up 9]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 89 [up 1]

Number of discs in collection: 6,424 [up 12]
Number of films: 2,876 [up 10]
Number of additional cuts: 203 [no change]
Number of TV episodes: 8,982 [no change]
Number of short films: 798 [up 6]

See you next week, faithful reader.

So, that's the end of that. The last episode kind of felt just like a series of fakeouts, with a bit of an inconclusive final beat (the episode title is far from accurate), but hey-ho.

This daytime quiz was such a hit during lockdown that they've given it a primetime evening variation, so I thought I'd give it a go. It's quite good fun, with a nice degree of play-along-at-home-ability.

Instead of a third series of The Missing, they created this spin-off for its hero detective, in which the detective who previously searched for a missing person now… searches for a missing person. Hmm.
