the LOTW [over there] is a list of movies ebert says you must see so that you know what people are talking about. not a list of the best, but those everyone must see. i saw that other people made a meme of it and i thought i would play along. however, due to the fact that i have seen so few of these, instead of bolding the ones i'd seen, i thought it would be a shorter list if i just listed those i'd seen.
