Ok, I’m Netflix's bitch

[datahawk]

I've had my own Netflix account for over a year now. There are a lot of newer movies I would like to see, not enough that I was willing to pay for them in the theatre. But I would still really like to see them. Honestly, I don't remember most of them when I’m in front of a terminal to remember them.

So, please suggest to me 1-3 movies from the last 1 1/2 years that you really think I need to see. Doesn't matter the genre, I love all kinds of movies. And yes, I do enjoy sappy girl movies.

Napoleon Dynamite...Big Fish...Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind...

I would tell you to get The Incredibles, but I've only seen 20 minutes of it (good thus far). I rented it the other day and had to stop it to go pick up Chris. By the time I had the time to watch the rest of it, he had disassembled all of the cords and cables to the entertainment center and packed them. *sigh* Once we get moved in, I'm making him rent it again for me...

Heh. I think I've already forced you to watch all the ones that immediately come to mind... with the exception of "Strictly Ballroom", which I don't think you've seen yet. No need to rent that from Netflix, though... you can just borrow it from me. :)

Someone else mentioned Momento, and I agree. Excellent movie-- but it's one you have to pay attention to. "Identity" is another one, and it has John Cusak in it, so yum. And... hmmmm... for m third choice: "Songcatcher". Aidan Quinn as a mountain man, lots of banjos, and old Irish music. :)

I just found a list of the top 100 2004 dvd rentals and.. ... 2004 kinda sucked.

But.. going on the basis that you're not actually paying $4/rental

Lion King 1.5 was kinda cute for what it was
Dodgeball was surprisingly funny when I expected it to be god awful
Kill Bill.. I assume you've seen
The butterfly effect wasn't too bad - we got it just because Brathor HATES ashton kutcher.
I liked Harold and Kumar go to white castle enough to buy the dvd .. just a silly movie.

We just signed up for netflix too - Haven't watch it.. but we just got Oz Season 3! Blockbuster wouldnt carry it >.<


Other people mentioned some good movies but.. they've seriously got their years off... Memento was 2000.

me, i like to pick an actor then get all their films. i've seen some crashing dogs, but i've also seen some unexpectedly good movies i wouldn't have found otherwise.

as for the last 1.5..... definitely eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, but also Hero (the chinse film), and triplets of belleville.
