My second year participating in Cinemonster’s Hooptober challenge, last year I fell just short so I’m
hoping to redeem myself this year with Hooptober 12! Originally I would curate my own lists but last year I found having to follow a certain criteria made it more of a challenge. All will be first time watches other than The Wizard of Oz.
Edit: I failed miserably this year, just didn’t have the time or drive to complete it. Till next year I suppose.
Here are my past October challenges
-Hooptober 11
-31 Days of Horror 2023
-31 Days of Horror 2022
-6 Countries (other than Italy or US): UK, Japan, Spain, France, Sweden and Germany
-9 Decades: 20s, 30s, 40s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s…
