So I haven't seen the movie, but the idea behind it (completing things that you've always wanted to do in your life before you die). Anyway, I've created this list for myself and have listed it below. I'm sure that there are many more things that I'll add to this list, especially as I cross some of these things off. I'm interested in reading your lists and adding to my own.
I've already completed some of these things, but I've kept them on the list so that I could start off with some things already checked off
My other idea is to write and hopefully have a photograph of each of these events as I complete them.
Anyway, here my beginning list (in no particular order).

That's quite an ambitious list you have there! Better get started right away.
Me, as I slowly get older, my only goal is to have a peaceful and contented remainder of my life.
- get to know my father better in my adult life
- go helicopter skiing (be dropped off by a helicopter on top of the mountain, go down 2-3 hours uninterrupted)
- work in art industry (something to do with graphic design or directing or acting in movies) at least once -few months will do
- climb Kilimanjaro
- preferably meet the Prince Charming
- oh, and finish the damned dissertation before i die
otherwise i'm pretty content with what i got

Those 2 sound particularly interesting to me.
