Finally!
It wasn't really a resolution, but it's been on my to-do list for years. In fact, I've had the DVD from Netflix sitting around for a while now. I finally saw Metropolis. Talk about ahead of its time! The special effects they used - for the 1920s - were fantastic. Amazing production values for a silent film. Wiki's telling me that they spent the equivalent of $200 million to make it back then. I believe it.
Some of the film has been lost and so they had to pad it with text (I was having Doctor Who reconstruction flashbacks), but it was still extremely watchable.
Hmmm. Maybe I should resolve to do new things this year, whatever those new things might be.
