My dh is taking me away (to a very secluded bed & breakfast) for the weekend and we love movies. We haven't seen a movie at a theater since Million Dollar Baby. Any suggestions for any movies out on DVD that we could take with? They don't have to be recent either.

Julie, our public library has dvd's. Don't know if yours has them or not, but I picked up about 10 over the holidays. Bought Mr. & Mrs. Smith, love it as well. Just bought Wedding Crashers, it was okay, hilarious in some parts.

Jules, if you and hubby are going away to a "very secluded B&B" for the weekend, I'm hoping you'll think of other things to do than watch a movie!!! <snicker> <snort>

LOL, now wait a minute..with a kidlet at home you never get to watch a movie in peace unless you're doing it at 2 in the morning. You can squeeze a quickie in though, so going away for a weekend and spending a couple hours watching a movie alone and in peace sounds great! What type of movie are you looking for Julie? Love story, blockbuster, horror/suspense?

You got that right War!!! It is much easier (and happens much more often) to get a quickie (or even a "little-longer-than-a-quickie") than it is to watch a whole movie. We occasionally do go to a theater to see a movie, but rent one? We've tried, but it never happens. We end up watching it late at night and falling asleep.

Type of movie, I like a good suspense/mysteryy type movie. I also like dramas (ie Good Girl w/Jennifer Anniston) as well as history types (ie Finding Private Ryan). My dh likes comedy, but I usually don't. (Typically too "slapstick" for me.) Some of my all time favs are tearjerkers. What Oscar contenders are on DVD? Anyone know?

Yesterday the kids had been playing in the den for awhile and we set up a movie for them to watch. Hadn't seen them in probably a good hour and a half so we decided to watch our tivo'd episode of Friday's Battlestar Gallactica. Definitely not a show I want them watching. In 45 minutes (ff'ing through commercials) they came into the living room six times. It was like they had little warning devices that let them know mom and dad were watching something and for a short time wanted peace to watch it in, lol. We've pretty much given up on watching our shows or movie uninterrupted unless the kids are gone or we're away. I've heard March of the Penguins is excellent though that's probaly not the type of thing you're looking for for this type of weekend, lol. Me, I'd probably go for something like Underworld, the American Pie movies, or something I have around the house that we haven't gotten to like Alexander or maybe Troy which we did watch but was like Battlestar this weekend..watch, pause, watch, pause. I can't think of anything new thats out yet though (it's been awhile since i went shopping for movies, lol.)
