I can’t believe how behind the times I really am!! I haven’t even HEARD of many of these movies!!! eek!! I guess it’s time to get started watching movies again… we’re a family of N*flixers, but when we get a dvd by mail, it usually stays at our home for a month or so, because my son will watch them over and over and over again…
Thanks for some great info!
