From the look of it, both of you could come to my place and find half of your lists. :S (without taking any of the same movies)
I cant decide, does this make me even more of a movie geek than a disney geek?

I've got a good chunk of those discs, too. I think that back in the days of laserdiscs, I just got used to buying my movies (hardly anyone rented the oddball titles) and the price was anywhere from $25 to $125 a title. The price point on DVDs is so cheap - especially since I use www.dvdpricesearch.com , that I have wound up with a massive collection. Movie party in San Francisco!

Okay, have a movie party in SF, the cruise down to San Diego and watch whatever you didnt see at mousepod's house at my place.
I think between the two of us, we could prob knock out the larger part of those lists.

Well, I'm TRYING to get to SF but the airlines are not cooperating. We'll just have to plan another time - but I'm going to insist the Chi's are fully dressed for the occasion.

Now, San Diego is easy!

Not only do I use our cable pretty regularly, with the discounts we get on internet and phone service by having the full package through Cox, I think it would actually cost us more to cancel the cable than keep it!

I would ask the official owner of "my" Netflix queue to report, but that person is a little wrapped up in editing the next incarnation of Bravo's Moms and Dads series right now. I hear it involves crazy cheerleading moms. Ahhh, the stuff that tv movies are made of!

As I remember, things on the list include Alias, South Park, Badder Santa, and Finding Neverland (to see if the DVD is worth owning)... and I'm blanking on the rest. In our grasps right now are Wallace and Gromit, RKO 284, and something else that escapes me.

We have Direct TV that we never use. It seems silly to have ti, but silly to take it out. We don't have many chanels left on it though. We're just not TV people at all.

I have 404 movies in my queue.

And I keep buying more! Thank you Mousepod for sharing that DVD site for the movies. It's a pity there isn't a Fry's close to me!

Hi-Speed Internet and cable TV=110
Hi-Speed Internet alone = 36

I use my cell as only phone plus a lot of Data/internet and pay 95/month

not worth it for me to have cable TV

Egads, you're paying $75 for cable. We're paying $20, plus get discounts on the other 2 services that more than cover that $20. We basically get cable for free.

You can add me to the route...Orange. I have a wicked kids section too (ok so they are my Disney DVD's but the kids make a good exscuse). I can fill in the blanks I'm sure...how about a DVD party Train or something? Connecting to all 3 regions? LOL!

im paying $120 a month through Cox

$40 - Cable internet
$65 - Digital Cable + DVR
$10 - home phone

and then taxes and stuff

if i were to get rid of our Digital Cable + DVR, and go back to their basic cable (so i can watch Angels Games and hockey when it comes back) its only a savings of $20 or so. So kinda hard for me to justify it... for only $20, i would say i like the features / capabilities of the DVR, even though we dont use it too often

We've got basic cable (not digital, no cable box, no remote rental, no premium channels), which is normally $40, but with the package is only $20. We have a ReplayTV, which is a DVR, that we got independantly from the cable and that does not have a monthly fee. So that makes it real cheap for us.

Anywho, back to Netflix, we just returned an Aqua Teen disc, so Shaun of the Dead should be arriving tomorrow. A friend mentioned Meet the Feebles to us yesterday and said that Netflix pulled the title from their catalog. Apparantly, it was not only available, it was listed in the children's section. Someone obviously just glanced at the cover, saw some puppets, and filed it there. Meanwhile, I go to check on this and see that Meet the Feebles is indeed available to be queued. So I add it, only to have the queue say, "Available May 31, 2005." Wonder what that's about.

I'd love to have been a fly on the wall with the family whose kids watched Meet The Feebles.

My queue has only got a fwe titles. I am very bad at browsing. I need to steal some suggestions from these nice long lists. (I somehow don't find Netflix' categorizing and suggesting methods very effective.)

Anyhow, currently in my queue or right here on my "to watch" pile:
Barton Fink
Rabbit Proof Fence
F For Fake
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (just watched - Maggie Smith amazing)
Elmer Gantry

That's all at the moment.

Note from Netflix:

Dear Lisa,

It appears that you accidently returned one of your personal DVDs or CDs in a Netflix envelope. Rest assured, we will send your disc right back to you.

Oh no! What did I do now??????? I have no idea. :rolleyes:

Time to update your Netflix queue. Tomorrow (feb 28th) all the Starz movies get pulled (http://gizmodo.com/5888553/the-20-best-movies-getting-pulled-from-netflix-streaming-tomorrow).

Damn, I still haven't had a chance to watch Toy Story III.

Not that there aren't some good movies on that list, but when your list of top tragedies includes "Airheads"...I'm thinking the damage isn't going to be devastating.

You singled out "airheads" on a list that includes "teen wolf". I just don't get some people.

Disney is coming back to Netflix (http://gizmodo.com/5965589/dumbo-iron-man-and-skywalker-maybe-coming-to-netflix).


Starting today, however, you'll be able to watch such classics as Dumbo and Alice in Wonderland. It's unclear if all of the Disney content will be streamable, though. We've reached out to Netflix and Disney for comment. Direct-to-video releases will begin streaming in 2013.

Interesting Netflix tidbit:

Well this is new. (at least to me)

I posted a disk back to Netflix on Saturday morning. Saturday evening I get this email from Netflix:


The Postal Service sent word that you've returned a DVD to us; so we were able to ship your next available disc sooner.
We'll send you a detailed returned disc email upon receipt


Fascinating.
