Hi everyone! Welcome to my Scavenger Hunt! I cannot believe that I am getting to host a Scavenger Hunt as they are something I look forward to every month. I tried to come up with prompts that you would have lots of options with. I hope you have fun this month!

Progress: 5/30
1. Happy April Fools’ Day! Watch a movie centered on pranks, hijinks, or schemes.
2. My dad is the one who really got me into movies and some of my earliest memories of movie watching include watching classic Universal monster movies and Elvis movies with him. Watch either a Universal monster movie or an Elvis movie.
3. I absolutely love going to see movies in theaters! However, I am not always the best about actually seeing my anticipated releases when they are in theaters. Watch a movie you meant to see in theaters, but didn’t get around to it.
4. I am actually starting this month off on a trip to Disneyland! However, I am typically a Walt Disney World visitor with EPCOT being my all time favorite park. Watch a movie from one of the countries in EPCOT’s World Showcase (Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Italy, America, Japan, Morocco, France, the United Kingdom, and Canada).
5. I grew up near Dayton, Ohio, aka the birthplace of aviation! In honor of my hometown, watch a movie that heavily features aviation.
6. Not only did I grow up in Ohio, but I actually grew up on a pony farm! Watch a movie that prominently features a horse or pony.
7. Something I really appreciate in a movie is great costume design. Watch a movie that has been nominated for best costume design at the Oscars.
8. I love birthdays and get a little too excited when I find out I have a birthday twin. There are quite a few actors who share my birthday (including a couple Oscar winners). Find an actor that shares your birthday and watch one of their films.
9. Some of the best parts of movies are the side characters. Watch a movie featuring an iconic side character (or several).
10. Happy National Siblings Day! I have one older brother, so in honor of my personal sibling dynamic…Watch a movie with a brother and sister duo.
11. It seems as though every well known musician has had a movie made of their life. With the high volume of musician biopics, let's not forget other stories. Watch a non-musician biopic.
12. Traveling is one of my biggest passions and I love watching movies set in different places throughout the world. Watch a movie with a specific location in the title.
13. We are nearing the end of the 50th season of Saturday Night Live. Throughout its historic run, SNL has had many many talented host. Many of these hosts have returned time after time. Watch a movie starring one of the members of the SNL Five Timers Club.
14. I spend entirely too much time on New York Times games...Watch a movie that has been used in a NYT Crossword puzzle.
15. Movies are great, but I have a soft spot for live theatre. Watch a movie that has either been adapted from a stage production or adapted into a stage production.
16. We all have holes in our movie watching. Watch a movie that you are embarrassed to admit you haven’t seen yet.
17. There are lots of things that I enjoy in movies that I don’t particularly love in real life, for example the mafia. Watch a movie centered around organized crime.
18. A goal of mine is to eventually have watched a director's entire filmography. Watch a film you haven't yet seen from your most watched director.
19. Today marks the one year anniversary of the release of Taylor Swift’s 11th album, The Tortured Poets Department. In honor of her massive discography, watch a movie that has the same name as a Taylor Swift song.
20. Happy Easter! Watch a movie that is based on the Bible (either explicitly or through allegory/allusion).
21. Most people don’t have a least favorite number. But I do and it is 21. Shuffle your watchlist and watch the 21st movie that pops up.
22. We have arrived at Earth Day! Watch a movie with a blue or green poster.
23. Today is World Book Day! Watch a movie based on a book you read for school (or at least one you were supposed to read in school).
24. Despite how much I love watching movies, I don't watch much TV. But when I do, it is almost always a sitcom. To me there isn't a better show than Arrested Development (but we don't count the 4th and 5th seasons). Watch a movie featuring one of the cast members from Arrested Development.
25. We have somehow made it to the halfway mark of the 2020s! Let's throw it back a bit and watch a movie set in the 1920s.
26. With the rising prices of streaming services, I am starting to gain an even greater appreciation for movies I don't have to pay extra for. Watch a movie for free (could be from a free streaming service, a movie you already own, one you find on YouTube, etc.).
27. We are one month into the Major League Baseball season. I am a diehard Cincinnati Reds fan and while it has been 35 years since their last World Series win, they have quite a promising team this year. Watch a movie that was released in one of the years the Reds won a World Series (1919, 1940, 1975, 1976, or 1990).
28. We are now in Q2 of 2025, so let's take the time to reflect on our Q1. Watch a movie that has been released so far in 2025 that you have yet to watch.
29. Let's also get prepped for the rest of the year. Watch a movie that has a sequel or remake coming out in 2025.
30. For our last prompt of the month, let's really try to stretch ourselves. Use a random word generator to find a word, type that word into the search bar on Letterboxd, and find a movie with that word in the title.
If you aren't feeling any of these prompts, feel free to replace them with a movie from any of these lists:
easy movies to watch when you’re sick, depressed, or just not feelin’ it
Movies everyone should watch at least once during their lifetime
feeling lost in your 20’s
Hopefully these prompts lead you to discover some great new films this month!
