Just sounds to me like we have a bunch of cuddle movie nights ahead of us

Why is Arrow on that list?

I was just putting down whatever popped into my head. I watch like 4 things on repeat, I don't know what's popular right now.

Finding Nemo

Lion king

Tarzan

It's not like I'm infinitely well read either. Never read Kafka, or 80% of must read authors.

I know right? I've been spending way too much time trying to get people here to watch "Barbie" (now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services) for like a year now.

It's a good movie, if you haven't seen it yet, go watch it.

I got a chance to watch it on a cross-Pacific flight. Which is just about the only time I watch movies anymore. I made the right choice! It was far more enjoyable than Meg 2 which I also managed to squeeze in unfortunately.

Thanks, Margot. <3

Oh, so you’re a movie fan? Name every Hallmark movie.

Christmas or non Christmas?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Yeah I watch a lot of TV shows... The same ones over and over

So date them, show them a movie every night, and see how many it takes for them to say, “Seen it.” Then repeat. EZPZ

I see Lemmy's source code instead of movies

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

That goes down well on dates.

So what you're saying is we should start a reaction channel on YouTube?

"This week I go on a date with Gestrid and mock them for not knowing the endings to classic movies! Like and subscribe for more hilarious dating hijinks!"

I'm worse, I never finish. I stopped watching game of thrones with 3 episodes to go.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago

Good place to stop, from what I hear.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

Don't bother.

I've seen a bit of most popular shows, if only to form an informed opinion about them.

Most from my early adult years (mid-1990s) are so terrible that I stopped watching TV entirely.

My gf used to be in that boat. I'm a big film guy. The first few years of our relationship I spent catching her up on the more important things in life.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

After 20 years with my wife, I still have weekly “you haven’t seen X?!?!?!” moments with her. The amount of films she hasn’t seen is staggering.

(conversely, the amount of time I’ve wasted watching films is kinda scary)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Of those movies you were shocked your wife hadn't seen, which did you most enjoyed watching with her?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Star Wars Holiday Special

My GF thought Trek was something her mom watched. Now she's debating the finer points of canon with me because I caught her up.
