So I thought I might try to start up a thread similar to the Whatcha Readin' one, but for movies and TV, if anyone is interested. Although of course it's not healthy to sit around and watch TV all day, it's nice to have SOME down time. Since movies are usually something that might be watched as a family, it might be a good idea to include ratings and whether there is anything obviously objectionable.
I just recently got Netflix and I love it. So far, I've watched the original British version of Death at a Funeral and The Lovely Bones.
Death at a Funeral was absolutely hilarious. I have a friend who HATES what he terms as "British Humor", and even he enjoyed it. It's rated R... It's pretty dark humor and there's some drug content, as well as a naked man (from the back), so it's really not for kids, but most grownups should enjoy it.
The Lovely Bones was interesting. As someone who has read the book, I thought it was slightly different in that it focuses more on Susie in the afterlife than the events in her family like the book does. It had a very weird, unsettling feel to it. All in all, though, I would recommend it. It's rated PG-13, and there are some plot elements that are pretty mature, but nothing too graphic.
So... whatcha watchin'?
