Movies
Lately, at my house, we have been bored with the movies we own. So, we've been renting a lot lately.
If you were to guess my sister, Emily/Bryn's sex by her movies you would totally think she is a guy. Whereas I have a vast range of genres covered, romantic comedies, dramas, action/adventure, comedy, 'based on a true story', , classics, sci-fi/fantasy, family, etc., she basically has action/adventure and sci-fi, she has a buch of what most people would call 'horror', but that she refuses to call it that because "I don't like horror". She owns one musical - 'Singin' in the Rain' and one Romantic Comedy 'Music & Lyrics'.
Anyway, we decided to put in a movie (before Mom came home and put on 'Divorce Court' which we both LOATHE), and couldn't agree on anything.
She wanted to watch: 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek: The Voyage Home', any of the 'Die Hard's, 'Indiana Jones', or 'Lethal Weapons'
I wanted to watch: 'The Pursuit of Happyness', 'Krippendorf's Tribe', or 'A Walk in the Clouds'
We decided to rent something different.
We Came Up with this List:
1. Cannot Take Place In, Have anything/anyone to do with Outer Space, Aliens included - my rule
2. Cannot be 'Based on a True Story' - her Rule
3. Harrison Ford (mine) or Bruce Willis (mine) or Keanu Reeves (hers) cannot be in it
4. Nothing Animated - we agreed
This is what we rented:
'No Reservations'
'Ocean's 13'
and
'Martian Child' (which actually breaks Both 1 and 2, but we both wanted to see it)
We plan to take our list with us to Blockbuster, hand it to the guy at the counter (who always flirts with my COMPLETELY OBLIVIOUS Sister) and see what he recommends.
