Mini Blog - Hosting Movie Nights

I watch a ton of movies and love hosting movie nights with friends. I made an excel sheet a while back that makes scheduling multi-movie nights very easy, so just wanted to share that.

Movie Scheduling Excel Sheet

To use it:

  1. Add your movie names and their length in minutes.
  2. Sort the movie name column alphabetically by their name.

  4. Decide whether you want to schedule from the end time or start time of your movie night.
  5. Fill the appropriate column with the movies in the order you'd like to watch them.

The sheet will tell you when each movie needs to start and end for your movie night. With that you can easily make your movie night posters:
