Rental Ideas
 

Sleepers?

Anything you liked that wasn't a huge hit but you really enjoyed? I need to update my Netflix que.

I just watched Shaun of the Dead and found it hillarious :rofl: If you can stand all the gore and blood you should check it out.

Lilith,

If you have not yet seen The Birdcage, and are looking for good acting & dialog, Hackman & Williams are well worth the rental.

"Shaun of the Dead" was brilliant.

I watched both Birdcage and a screen adaption of La Cage... last week even. I agree good stand bys.

Oldfart~ I loved the record albums :p

I think I am the only person that liked the move...Rat Race.

John Lovitz was hilarious in it. Little things happened to him in the movie that led up to a side splitting scene....

I have not seen that one yet. I'll add it!

loved shaun of the dead

have you seen 21 grams. i liked that one

No I have not! I'll check it out.

I have'nt rented movies forever......way behind!!

Speaking of rentals.When I was in Fla recently,we didn't have a TV connection,for one week.There was a VCR hooked up to the TV.I had some pre-recorded tapes,but went to Blockbuster,to rent some more.The Melbourne
Blockbuster,only has DVDs now.I just thought that I would tell everyone.I have,aDVD & a VCR in NH,but NO DVD as yet in Fla! Irish

Lilith,

You may want to consider classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey & Citizen Kane.

I still love "Undercover Blues" with Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid. Absolutely histarical super spy show! One of my favorite movies of all times.

how 'bout elephant man?

i am not an animal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like renting seasons of TV shows like "Curb Your Enthusiasm" & "Family Guy".

Great ideas...many of the last ones I have seen but great suggestions for anyone who has not.

Lilith, I would recomend The Governess.1997 with Minnie Driver. Not really sexual,but in my opinion it is a very erotic movie.I think you would like it.

Ummmm...yessssssssssssssssssss. One of my top 10 all time faves...I've watched a zillion and 51 times.

Your thread caused me to google a true sleeper I stumbled upon a few years ago at a local non-chain store. The Red Tent is a spaghetti production with Sean Connery that I never heard of before or since. If you’re interested in a movie that every gender and age of the family will find their asses being creased by the edge of their chair, this will do it.;)

I know you may not believe anyone could be interested in these movies, but I'm telling you I was addicted..my ex even destroyed the tapes I watched them so much....hey I was pregnant and on bedrest..what did he expect? lol

The original Highlander movies with Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery :)

I recommend Memento, which is one of my all-time favorite movies, and Secretary, which is also good.

"The Notebook!" Makes ya feel good and sad all at the same time...

Great suggestions...I'm dying to see Secretary and I read Notebook :(((((((((((((((

these are older ones. but i don't really watch many new movies...

American History X - good good story

To Kill a Mockingbird - Gregory Peck is the man. Also a great book

Brian's Song - whether you like football or not, this movie will touch your heart

Rainmaker
A League of Their Own
Shawshank Redemption

Those are a few of my favorites.. :D

Mad House...With John Larroquette..One of the funniest movies I ever saw..Best role I think Kirstie Allie(not sure about spelling,i'm a guy),ever played too..They're great in this one..
