My friend's GF comes up to him and says " Hey can order a couple of movies on your netflix account.... he says sure go ahead......

Now the pop quiz.... can you guess where his list stops and hers starts

Last Samurai should be his, Love Actually hers.
If not, your friend is not sufficiently into armours.

but then "The Bourne Identity" throws confusion back into the mix.. that just has to be his, right? :p

And Princess Mononoke, which has a lot more people getting limbs whacked off than princesses.

Techinicly not even one princess!

I asked him about that.... bourn Identity is hers...... think she's got a thing for Matt.

WOOT

Well..

At least she didn't pre-empt his selections and push hers all to the top.

-L

Love Actually can be his too...it's a great movie

There are quite a few good movies on that list actually. But for the love of your eyes and brain, skip Tad Hamilton.

I just got that from Netflix... Tad Hamilton that is...is it that bad? I'm supposed to watch it with my best friend...she kinda wanted to see it...so...

Its cheesy if its your girl she'll like it, good points for you, blonde girls cute reminds me of a girl i knew in hs.

Although I haven't seen it, I'm guessing it's the standard recycled "Girl wants famous boy, but can't see the other boy who loves her and has been a constant friend throughout her life."

Actually, the Robotech Vol. 10 through 12 is what amused me with this thread; I've just finished watching volumes one through six (seven weekly movies deal at the local video store, so I decided on an anime marathon, with Robotech 1 to 6 and the Metropolis anime).

Watch Chicago and Love, Actually. Skip the rest of the stuff on your girlfriend's list. :D

Not such a bad Netflix list (big thumbs up on the Robotech stuff).

Remove the Tad Hamilton one (I don't remember what "Love Actually" is so that may be a "remove" as well) and I see nothing wrong with it. Remember one of the nice things about seeing movies at home on DVD is you can pause them, talk over them if they have boring parts, and generally not have to pay as much money as you would for a theater film, to me this equates to give "films a chance".

Other bonuses of watching films at home while snuggling on the couch with your significant other I shall not go into at this point but let's just say that guys, you might want to consider putting up with a romantic film or two every now and then

Love Actually isn't that bad. It didn't feel like the ending was as sugary sweet as in a lot of the other romantic comedies I've been forced to endure, and it does have it's moments. Oh, it's still a romantic comedy that ends in one of those 'Yay love!' moments, but I've seen a helluva lot worse. And heck, I just love Alan Rickman in just about anything he does and the rock star character gets some wonderfully brilliant lines.

bourne identiy rocks bump it! Total fun flick.

The scariest thing about that queue is there are only ten discs in it, and most of them were just added by the girlfriend. My queue hasn't been that short since fifteen minutes after I opened my account.

you can blow a ton of time finding stuff for your queue i noticed. Mine is at 43 but I tend to just add stuff if i think "this might be interesting one day" and just let it linger at the bottom.



Still much less time then going to a video store and much cheaper if you keep a high turn around.

43 eh? ditto. Something about that number... my queue has been 43 for a year now (hovers between about 41 and 45).

The only drawback to that is when I add a movie thinking "hmm this looks neat", by the time I actually get it, its 6-8 months later and I'm thinking "wtf, why did I get this?"

I have 124 movies in my queue

I have Homescreen (Aussie equivalent). When I signed up in February, I had some time on my hands so I added.... And added. My list was 583 by the time I'd finished that day.

6 months later, with a few additions and deletions, it's at a more manageable 505.

Well, I really liked Love Actually and Somethings gotta give...

I have the Last Samurai right now, as well, but have yet to watch it. Still laughing over and over with Blazing Saddles.., and I'm still into the first 15 minutes of the movie

Master and Commander, I really liked as well.
