46/50 (one misclick), didn’t get a few of the horror films that I had never heard of, but got all of the John Hughe’s type of films. I think it helped that for the films that I haven’t seen, I watch lots of Siskel and Ebert and their reviews on PBS/Sneak Previews. Of the ones I missed, they were probably stinkers to begin with that they didn’t cover.
