Magnars "see all Top 250 IMDb movies" project

Inspired by the 1001 Things To Do in 1001 Days project, I've decided to see all the movies on the
IMDb top 250 list. I took all the movies from the list January 7th, 2005, since the list changes all the time
(to a certain degree). I had seen 51 movies (wow, that's not many.. I would've thought I had seen more)
before I started the project.

Movies seen before project started: 52
Movies owned before project started: 31
Movies owned: 49
Movies seen: 72
Movies left: 178

Movies with Strike are the movies I've seen.
Movies in Italic are the movies I own.
