FabFunk's line of thought that one's interests should challenge one and enable them to grow...but when I go looking for entertainment that's not at the forefront of my thoughts. Ideally I'm seeking stuff that will, well, entertain me...
...and every so often that stuff is moronic, immature, and lacking a good plot line.
This may go hand in hand with why my choices in porn go more straight to the action and are less story driven.
Then again, I don't always see this (not the porn...necessarily) when I'm picking stuff up at Blockbuster. Yeah, not so much a Netflix guy. Going thru the new selections, and occasionally the old stuff, is more enjoyable to me then getting stuff thru the mail. Not just because I can take the time to peruse titles and read the back of each movie but also cuz I actually enjoy interacting with the other people there and the employees...
...about 3 of the titles I picked up a little bit ago were due to this really hot girl, I was talking with earlier, combing the aisles for stuff she thought I'd love. In the earlier, she was helping try to track down a copy of Bottle Shock cuz I think that'd make a great gift for Dad come XMAS!
Truth be told, some of these may stink but I won't know for sure until I watch them. It was enough for a viewing that they caught my attention. Usually only grab 8 movies at a time but a certain someone got me to get a couple extra, almost grabbed Aliens In the Attic...
...probably will next time.
