Housecleaning... — 5 years ago

I cleaned up the title and description of this list today, but I want to note someone’s earlier list description, just because…

> I have committed to view every movie on this list before August 15, 2009. It’s on my 101 things in 1001 days list, which can be found here: http://anitas101in1001.blogspot.com/
