I am a regular Netflix user. I like movies, although recently, I haven't had the time or the patience or the interest. However, every two-three days, I eagerly anticipate the arrival of the mail. I usually get into a particular mood and create a queue that I forget about 10 seconds later. I am usually too lazy to check up on it too, so each movie is a surprise. I'll tell you another surprise... when two other people share your account and erase what you put in there entirely. Before, I knew I would be somewhat interested in what arrives, now it's all up in the air.
Most of the movies that women rent are out of habit, i.e. dramas, tearjeckers, romantic comedies, disney movies, whatever. I'm not saying that is what they all enjoy, but when choosing, I'm sure hormones play a huge role in clicking the box marked "Send to Queue". I have seen "Terms of Endearment", some Suze Orman self help money movies, and "Transamerica" come in recently, to name a few.
"Terms of Endearment" is one of the most depressing movies ever made. Nothing is redeeming about it, it is sad, and just makes you feel bad at the end. The synopsis doesn't hide the fact either, so you know what you are getting. Good acting though, I think it won a bunch of awards on Lifetime or something, along with Meredith Baxter-Birney. Also, I think old people bone.
Suze Orman is a crazy lesbian that has "earned" millions of dollars telling people that in order to save money, they shouldn't buy alot of stupid shit. Go figure, you mean that if i'm broke I shouldn't go buy a plasma TV? But Suze, I really can beat the odds at Blackjack, I swear! Listen lady, why don't you give away a few million, start wearing Jordache instead of Calvin Klein jeans, and step foot inside a Goodwill like you are suggesting. Maybe you'll see the point of buying Papa Johns every now and then instead of putting american cheese on top of an english muffin slathered in Spaghetti-O sauce. Rich Democrats, I can't stand them.
"Transamerica" is about a transexual that is about to undergo surgery to make the full male-female transformation and has to go pick-up 'its' gay, prostitute son from juvenile detention in NY city and then drive him across America to California where he can live out his dream of becoming a gay film star. The whole plot unravels in the first 20 minutes, the rest of the movie, I have no idea, I turned it off. Never rent that movie.... ever. It will make you grind your teeth while sleeping.
After I finish this blog, I will log onto Netflix, change the password, and select about 100 movies that I have ALWAYS wanted to see. For those of you who have Netflix accounts, beware of Netflix sharing with anyone, I just used women as an example because it was my wife and sister-in-law that were committing the for-mentioned abuses of the system.
So, this weekend we are supposedly getting hit with a hurricane, so if the electricity holds up, hopefully I'll be watching "Return of the Living Dead III" and "Killer Clowns from Outer Space". Enjoy whatever might come in your mailbox on the next delivery, but if you are in my plight, don't even look, just seal it back up and send it back. You might have to watch a transexual transvestite (not from Transylvania) bond with 'its' son
