91/100 -- and I'm not sure about one of the ones I've listed. I'm not seeing a pattern to what I missed, though. Ever since I sarted throwing NetFlix movies in the laptop when I head down to the treadmill, I've been catching up on stuff that I skipped at the theatre -- but at least a couple on the list are unlikely to ever end up on my NetFlix queue.
