This is just a brief notice that I've deiced to (after seeing former Dissolve critic Matt Singer suggest people do this in the New Year) undertake the challenge of watching all of the films in Sight & Sound's Top 50 Movies Of All-Time list that I have not watched in a series of reviews I hereby dub The Sight & Sound Voyage! There are currently 36 movies to go and I'm excited for the wide variety of motion pictures that lie ahead of me. Here is a list of the 36 movies I still have to go, which comes from Wikipedia:

As you can see, I have lots of movies to watch! These won't be the only movies I'll be watching; there's plenty of classic movies not on this list that I've rented from the library that I shall be viewing and then promptly reviewing and I'll still be covering theatrically released new motion pictures. However, this new series of reviews shall help expand my scope of cinema thusly and I hope you'll be joining me for the adventure!
