Statistics of a Movie Buff

Since January 1st 2011 I've been keeping an accurate and detailed record of all the movies I watch with nothing more than a simply MS Excel spreadsheet. It's been a task that has proven to be tedious and quite boring at times, but as the data began to mount things started to get interesting. Viewing habits, trends, influence and my very taste in movies were reflected back at me. All of which proved to be a most fascinating insight into myself as a movie buff. As it's now been 4 years since the accumulation of cinematic data began, I'll share with you now some of my statistics in no particular order.
