[Twiz]

My husband signed up at Blockbuster to have DVD's sent directly to our house, I was hoping if some of you can suggest some movies to see, last night we had Elizabethtown and it was jut AWFUL ... we hardley made it through to the end it was that bad !!!!

Hi Twiz,

I get Netflix at my house and you can go online to put movies in a queue and see what's available. I just watched Wildflower. It is an older movie but it was good with reese witherspoon. But you be able to go online with Blockbuster too. But I don't know how they work. How is the pricing for them? I pay 19.00 a month for Netflix and get 3 movies at a time.

Also depends on what you like. I like horror. Skeleton Key was good, Comedy-40 year old virgin was good. Against the Ropes, Must love dogs, Gia, War of the Worlds, Stealth, Pirates of the Carribean. All those are good. I love to watch movies so I have seen a lot of them. I could go on and on. I watch at least 3 a week.

A few of my favorite movies on DVD: Ulee's Gold, Cross Creek, The Insider, Before Sunrise, Before Sunset -- and many more. I have going on 200 DVDs. But two of my most favorite movies still aren't on DVD -- Ruby In Paradise and Enchanted April.

There are a couple TV series I also wish would be released on DVD -- China Beach and St. Elsewhere.

Pay It Forward and Simon Birch are both very touching...

Maybe you could get a list online of oscar winning movies or some other type of list to give you ideas.... :bliss:

I have this one on my want to see list !!! :)

I can't say enough great things about this movie. I will be buying it this weekend. From someone who knew nothing about Cash and Carter, I was amazed. You'll enjoy it! :D

[GirlyGirl]

If you havent seen Second Hand Lions, this is a 'must see' in my book. And my favorite movie of all time, When Harry Met Sally. If you like romantic comedies, How to Lose A Guy in Ten Days is also really good.

We signed up for Nexflix in December and love it. We have the "3 at time" package. We saw Ladder 49 and Sideways this weekend and enjoyed both.

My favorite movie of all time is "The Princess Bride". It's like a fairy tale with lots of stars in in (before they were famous). My kids bought it for me for Christmas. I also loved "Old School" - very funny!

All of these are great... I also like just renting and watching the oldies... Pretty Woman, Hope Floats... all wonderful!

I bawled in Ladder 49! Such a great movie! It does make some men cry...even the tough ones.

Red Eye and Flight Plan were both good movies that we saw recently.
