I'm kinda listening

I am a movie kinda girl.  I would rather pop in a flick than surf channels anyday. Zac and I decided a long time ago that we didn't really need cable or Dish or Direct TV.  We opted for $14/month Netflix and I never regret it.  One thing I love is the variety (SO thrilled Netflix has instant streaming)  Zac and I have a tone of movies and even saying that is an understatement.  We have an overwhelming, almost embarassingly large collection....which is one of the reasons I never posted pictures of the office.  I really like to put in a movie while I do other things.  I like background noise while I work and I like it to be kinda mindless.  I like to know that even though my focus is elsewhere, I can jump right back into the plot at anytime.  The following are my most favorite movies

I've seriously about worn out my copy.   It's starting to get little skips, but again, doesn't matter, I can pretty much quote the whole thing anyway.  I'm not 100% why I love this one so much, just do.  Love everything about it.

I can't get over John Goodman in this flick.  The way he yells at Donny and goes off on his tangents.  I know it's not for everyone, but it is for me!anchorman.jpg
Never fails to crack me up.  What can I say, I'm kind of a big deal and Ron Burgundy knows exactly what thats like. Everyday.

The dysfunction just makes them all so wonderful.  I love the narration and the house and, well, everything.  Again, not for everyone, but without a doubt my favorite of Wes Anderson's films.

I also throw in Office Space, Orange County, the Bourne Trilogy, and one other, but that's gonna be for another day.  Anyway, these are my faves, the ones for when I just want to kinda listen and the ones for when all I want for dinner is popcorn and a coke.  What are your go-to flicks?

  3. i have seen burn after reading, brad pitt is just to great in that one. i still laugh everytime i picture him fist pumping as he runs on that treadmill, I love movies where a persons absolute craziness is what makes them likeable, it's refreshing i think.
