A lot.
Here is a nearly complete list of the three and a half weeks that started with my Reel Quandary and ends with last night, in roughly reverse chronological order.
- Reel Injun
- Ayn Rand & the Prophecy of Atlas Shrugged*
- The Doom Generation
- Mommie Dearest
- Electrick Children
- Purple Rain
- Fame
- Valley of the Dolls
- Salinger
- Death Race 2000
- Born in Flames
- The Hot Flashes
- Dirty Girl
- Albert Nobbs
- The Van**
- Seven
- The Conversation
- Tabloid
- Matchstick Men
- Better off Dead
- Imitation of Life
- Jay and Silent Bob Go Down Under
- Young Adult
- Indecent Proposal
- We Were Here
- Sharknado***
- Rid of Me
- An Unmarried Woman
- The Wolves of Kromer
- Trading Places
Some of that volume of viewing is due to my determination to cut down the Netflix list. Some of it is due to the fact that, right at Sharknado time, I got a new and amazingly better TV. And some of it is no doubt due to the fact that it's freezing out. Like, really, really cold.
In any case, there are a lot of great, great movies in that mix, but it seems silly to try to talk about them all. So: What are you watching that I should add to the list? And what of what I've seen do you want to hear more about?
* Didn't finish: Too pro-Rand
** Didn't finish: Too rapey
*** Didn't finish: Insufficiently awesome effects for my new TV

Check out The Way Way Back. We saw it last week. Good stuff.
I'm picturing the poor bot in charge of creating your suggestions list. I suspect it isn't happy with its life.
Also, for some reason, the format isn't working, so I'm seeing the list as one long run-on sentence. I kinda want to see the SciFi commedy 'The Wolves of Kormar Trading Places', although I think 'The Hot Flashes Dirty Girl Albert Nobbs' would be a bit too porn for my taste.
