Movies

Posted to Home category
We watch a lot of movies. I see that slowing down as Shane starts college next year. I'll have to find another hobby for afterwork. Over the years, I played video games (huge waste of time), poured myself into work, (not really healthy) and watched a ton of Movies with the kids.

We currently have standard movies for the following holidays. These are movies I watch religiously each year, ones where Sukki rolls her eyes and says "Not again".

  • The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Halloween
  • A Christmas Story: Xmas
  • Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail: New Years
As we slow down on the movies, I'd like to get standards for the other Holidays.

There are a lot of Thanksgiving day movies, but none really qualify as a standard. Planes, Trains and Automobiles may be the best one, but I'd like to do a little better.

Not sure what a good Easter Movie would be. Maybe, Monty Python's Life of Brian. We already have a Monty Python, so would like find something else here as well.

Apocalypse Now might due for the 4th of July.

Memorial Day is probably going to be National Lampoon's Vacation.

Labor day is another tough one..

How about something Grammy would like? Gone with the Wind is always good. Now that I'm a member of the United Daughters of the Confedercy, I think you should order that.
