Everything I Watched in 2025
At the tail-end of 2024, I wanted to make a goal to spend my free time more productively, in ways that felt better engaging and more substantial than quick bursts of social media or vertical video. One of my goals was to watch 52 movies in a year--an average of one a week. I was able to accomplish my goal in spades, with some TV shows to boot!
Here's everything I watched in 2025, in chronological watch-order. It's a combination of new and old, at-home and in-theaters, classics I had missed out on and new modern favorites that just released in the past year. Nearly everything on the list was watched for the first time.
