My Netflix List is too High Brow

kath · 03-01-2005

Hub doesn't care about movies but the kids and I do. We just went back to Netflix after a year hiatus. Our list is layered in 3's.... my pick, my son's pick and my daughter's pick... we always have a variety. My son likes anything war/military/action - my daughter goes through phases (we're in Johnny Depp mode now... just saw Benny & Joon - she loved it!) and I pick a variety of documentaries, old films and fluffy new things I wouldn't pay to see in the theaters.

The best thing about Netflix for us has been exposing my kids to old movies... my kids might just be the only teenagers out there with an appreciation for John Hughes films. What have I done? lol At least they understand my teenaged POV and know that I actually DO "get" them.

I love movies... I think I'll wrap up in one tonight!
