Oh, that's a tough one! There are two possibilities.

1) I've gotten to see some good movies I never would have watched on my own. Shaolin Soccer, Killing Season, Lucky Number Slevin, Summer Wars, The Boondock Saints and The Last Unicorn are all movies I'd never have checked out if I was just choosing movies I wanted to see -- but I ended up liking them all and being very glad I watched them. That was part of the idea behind doing this challenge in the first place.

2) I've made some new connections with people. I didn't really anticipate this, but it's interesting how much you can learn about someone from their movie preferences. I found out I shouldn't trust some people's movie recommendations because they are NOT like mine, haha, but more often people's choices made me think, "Whoa... I should definitely talk about movies with them more often." A lot of the people who jumped into this challenge were people I really don't know that well or talk to that often, and this was a way to get to know them better. That's been very cool.
