Some movies that I actually might sit down long enough to watch.

I hate watching movies. Or TV, for that matter, unless it’s educational or involves food, like the food network.  I like food.  I like learning shit.

If I really like a movie I’ll watch it again- several agains.  It’s really hard on my husband that I have such a hard time making myself watch a new movie.  And should I see a movie preview and say “I want to see that” and should he go out and rent it there is only a one in three chance I’ll sit and watch it.  Poor guy.  He watches a lot of movies alone.

I am currently in love with House, and can watch 4 episodes quite happily without moving.  This perplexes my husband, but he procures me the next disc because it means snuggles. I also really like the Family Guy, but he’s only on when Emma is awake, so I don’t get to watch him.  It’s not kid friendly, alas.

Anyway, here are some movies I might, if the moon is full and the stars are aligned correctly and the wind is blowing and I’m not cold or stressed or pissy,  want to watch:

Alice in Wonderland

The Men Who Stare At Goats

The Lovely Bones

The Princess and the Frog

A Christmas Carol

Did you Hear about the Morgans?

Sherlock Holmes

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

Nine

Invictus

A Christmas Tale

The Last Airbender

Will I actually watch any of these?  Brian hopes so.

    I am the same way! It kills me to watch a new movie and I honestly hate going to movie theaters. However, if I’ve seen something once and really like it, I’ll watch it until I’ve worn out the DVD. (My poor MST3K dvds.)

    This must be some odd genetic thing- it makes me glad I am not alone in my quirkinesses ;)
