2025 Goal

This worked well in 2024, so I'm going to be a little more ambitious this year (that and in 2024 I started doing this a few months in, now I'll be able to start from January 1st).  So in addition to my never ending race with Netflix and Tubi whenever they plan to pull something from the catalogue, my goal for 2025 is 25 dramas and 50 movies.  I've already started a list in my drama tracker notebook, and Netflix is announcing January drops too, so I'm getting hyped for 2025!

My new way of organizing my PTW has seriously helped my ADHD brain.  Seeing those numbers and percentages = so much dopamine lol.

Another little challenge I've given myself is getting all of my genres over 20 and my tags over 50.

14/50 movies complete

3/25 dramas complete

    Oh how I underestimated Netflix's fickleness!  Watching S1 on YouTube and S2 on Netflix.  Yet to find S3 so if you know a place to stream it that's only semi sketchy lol, please share!

    Drama 6

    It felt like the show forgot it was inside a game until the very end.

    Also, still can't stand the ML.  Zero chemistry.  Though perhaps my biggest gripe is that I don't recall the FL squealing "Ohmygod!" in her inner monologue at all this season.  I thought that little quirk was so adorable lol.

  • Ju-on: Noroi no Ie

    7. Ju-on: Noroi no Ie

    Japanese Drama - 2020, 6 episodes

    Drama 7

    Being a diehard fan of the originals (when Takashi Shimizu was on board) it's possible my expectations were too high.  This may have faired better as a standalone.  That said, when judged as its own piece, it's not scary but it is very unsettling at times.  Will probably rewatch.

  • Love Between Fairy and Devil

    8. Love Between Fairy and Devil

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 36 episodes

    I figured I'd enjoy it but I didn't anticipate being so impressed with the story and the FL's personal journey.

    Well...that was a rather lukewarm start to the year.

    That wasn't much better.  But the twists were kinda fun.

    Movie 8

    Nothing we haven't seen before.  I'm sure the show is much better.

  • Once Upon a Time

    21. Once Upon a Time

    Chinese Movie - 2017

    7.5

    Movie 9

    This would've been very hard to enjoy had I not already seen Eternal Love.  That said there were some things that I thought the movie did better than the show and the special effects budget was very well spent.  It's just such a rich story, it's hard to condense that into a movie.  It was very ambitious, that much I will say, and I think the creators made a smart move with when in the full story the movie itself begins.

  • The Mystic Nine

    22. The Mystic Nine

    Chinese Movie - 2021

    Movie 10

    Predictable but not without some good moments.  All in all it was an okay time killer.
