Both movies can be life changing!  What The Bleep Do We Know is about quantum physics, but it is explained in a way that is easily understandable!  It is really amazing, and I would recommend it to anyone who has been feeling negative or hopeless or powerless lately or just wants to expand their brain and learn something totally alien.

The Secret has similarities to the above movie, but with more simplified explanations.  I pretty much forced my mom to watch The Secret because she has had such a negative view lately and gone through some tough times, and even though she can be a bit skeptical, she loved it!  It really inspired her, and the next day she had a terrific career idea and is at least focusing on the positive a bit more.

I think a simple thing like a movie or a book or even a new idea from a stranger can cause a  slight shift in one's consciousness and can help create a more positive outlook on life, and watching these movies really did make me want to enjoy the beauty of life a little bit more each day and look forward to the adventures life brings and just really feel alive!

I just wanted to recommend the movies to you and also know your thoughts if you have actually seen either movie and if/how they affected your lives.  (~kam)

Mine are (in no particular order)

Wagons East

Super Troopers

Anchorman

Baby's Day Out

Almost Heroes

Elf

Especially American Wedding when Stiffler eats dog doo!  These movies make me pee my pants -- speaking of which, my fav romantic movie is Pretty Woman - that's her line in the opera scene when she tells those old biddies "it was so good, I almost peed my pants."

My best friend loves Grease, too.  She knows every single line (which can get quite annoying).

Now that the holidays are just around the corner we'll be seeing more and more holiday movies.  I'm not into the holidays, but I do like holiday movies.  What are some of your favorites.  I like:

1.  Home for the Holidays (starring Holly Hunter) - very funny.

2.  Bed of Roses (with Christian Slater) - very Romantic.

3.  All the cartoon/animation kids shows like Dr. Seusse's Grinch that Stole Christmas and Rudolph the Rednose Rheindeer (DH loves to imitate the abdominal snow man - and we walk around singing we are Santa's elves while we make movements with our arms like the the animated characters - it's a hoot and we always end up laughing).  :-)

4.  Homecoming - Christmas story with the Waltons.

What is the site where you can watch a movie without paying anything?

thanks

Here's an article that analyzes the revenues earned by movies without foul language, violence, explicit sex or substance abuse compared with those that include these things.  As you can see, depravity loses bigtime.  Good on you, American movie-goers!  You're rewarding decency and punishing filth-peddlers the best way possible - with your dollars.

The Chronicles of Narnia and it is such a GOOD movie. Highly suggest this.  Also, Elf with Will Ferrell is cute.

Polar Express is great also.  With 3 little ones at home, anyone have any suggestions on good "holiday" type movies that won't bore a 4 year old? Thanks!

Jaws!?!?!  I didn't find that scary at all!  The Exorcist and Audition are the scariest for me.
