Weird science!
I've been showing the boys all kinds of cool movies from the 80's.
They have been totally loving it, but I need more to add to my queue.
They've seen all the back to the futures, Breakfast club, Sixteen Candles, Parenthood, and Christine.
I need more. they are loving them!
So tell me your fave 80's movies so I can add them to Netflix and they can watch them.
As for the $5.95, it was a total accident.
They showed me exactly what they were doing when it happened and they didn't even realize it was real money. In the game, you have money, you can buy stuff and they thought the button they pushed was for 595 gold coins or some crap. They didn't know it billed me.
I was able to get the charges reversed so it's all better now.
Comments
Have they seen "Gremlins"? I loved that one. There is also a sequel, "Gremlins 2".
"Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" is awesome...one of my all-time favorites.
"Uncle Buck" is funny...another of the many John Hughes movies from the 80's. And speaking of Macauley Clukin, who was in that movie, don't forget the first two "Home Alone" movies.
Ghostbusters", both 1 and 2.
"Three Men and a Baby" was cute. There's a sequel to that one, too.
I also loved "Arthur", with Dudley Moore and Liza Minelli. That was funny as hell. Yet another one with a sequel.
Also the dance movies..."Flashdance", "Footloose", "Fame".
"Fast Times at Ridgemont High" was another good one.
Finally, so bad it's good, and I admit that I love it: "Xanadu".

I loved Pretty in Pink, Terms of Endearment (they probably wouldn't like it), Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (can't believe I'm admitting that), Dirty Dancing, Raiders of the Lost Ark...
Now I'm at a brain freeze. I'm sure I'll remember more and come back :)
