I?m Bad At Watching Movies

By Pete

I’m bad at watching movies. Not “bad” in the way that Auburn is bad at football, of course, any moron can sit down in front of a TV and look at it, but rather I just don’t watch very many movies. This has become painfully apparent in my move to Atlanta.

Apparently, and I did not know this, people talk about movies that they’ve seen both as a form of small talk and as a “getting to know you” exercise. I can probably count on one hand the number of movies I’ve seen in the past two or three years.

So I’ve re-activated my netflix account. I’m on the super-cheap one now — one movie at a time, two per month max — until I figure out if I actually watch the movies when they’re sent. The problem is that while I had built up a rather impressive queue when I joined in law school, it disappeared when I deactivated my account, so I have to start from scratch.

So this is the part where you pretend like I’ve seen virtually nothing that’s come out over the past four or five years and you recommend movies that might not suck. Okay? Ready…

…go.
