K, I got blockbuster online, so I can watch all the movies I want. I'm trying to think of good ones. Any help is appreciated ;)
I'm not really into foreign films or horror stuff. Funny, sad, adventurous, educational, romantic, whatever, is all good.
maybe include a little bit about the movie, thanks!

The Notebook-- I just watched it this weekend and I've never cried so hard through a movie. But in a good way, I promise. You'll love it.

Lawn Dogs: a satire set inside a gated community
Lost and Delirious: An excelent cast, music and cenimitography set off a movie on what happens when somebody feels they are no longer loved by anybody. Note that two of the characters experience the feeling, but the results are different.
Skipped Parts: Think Porkies with actors the same age as their characters.

Life or Something Like It.- Has Angelina Jolie... I am not her biggest fan, but I love this movie. It's funny, sad, and romantic.
Breakfast at Tiffany's- My all-time favorite. Stars Audrey Hepburn. It's a story about a yound woman who is trying to find herself. Classic.
Spiderman (1&2)- I hope you know what that is about. Great action.
Crash- One of the best movies ever. Dramatic. Makes you think about how you judge people.
Vanilla Sky- I hate Tom Cruise, but love this movie. It's kinda sci-fi, but not completely. It is confusing until the very last scene, and it all comes together. Deep.
Wedding Crashers- Highlarious movie. I just added it to my collection. The title explains what it's about.
The Notebook- Very sad and romantic. I cry every time. It never fails.
Finding Nemo- Best animated movie I can think of. So so so so cute. About a young lost fish, and his dad trying to find him. Adventurous.
The Pianist- Very very very sad. But at the same time is a very very very good movie.
Chicago- Musical. About women murderers up for trial in 1920ish. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger play against each other. Both are striving to be big-time entertainers, but are in jail and on trial. Very entertaining.
Good luck!
