Although the challenge is organized by week, you are not bound by the weekly schedule and can watch films in any order and as quickly as you want. For many of the themes we've included lists of appropriate films, but you are always welcome to find films on your own as long as they fit the theme. If you've seen everything that fits a given theme or are just having trouble finding one you haven't seen, please comment and we'll help you out with alternatives. You are also not bound by your original selections. If you happen to watch a different movie that fits a weekly theme, go ahead and log it. If a movie you really wanted to see becomes available, make the swap. Or if you're indecisive or just love a theme, watch multiple films for that week. The important thing is to expand your film knowledge and have fun along the way.
