Managing for once to think of a fun New Year's resolution, the ol' lady and me have decided to rewatch every DVD we own to see if they are worth keeping. Mostly from misspent years as Blockbuster (hey, remember that place?) employees while in college, we probably have a larger inventory of films than most rural libraries. Now that the kiddos are making us truly delve into the Disney vault, some things have just got to go. In order to make it more interesting, we're going to blog mini-reviews with the ultimate verdict: keep it or pitch it. We may even open certain films up for a vote, provided anyone besides us reads this thing.
Before we begin, a couple of ground rules:
1. No TV shows. We own several series on DVD, but we'd have to quit our jobs to watch all of those too. (Unless someone wants to give us a book deal or something for doing this, then, yes, we'll totally do that too).
2. We each have to watch it. No getting out of Man in the Moon for me, no skipping Talladega Nights for her.
3. Movies we own shown on TV do not count. So Four Brothers is on AMC again and we happened upon that scene where Marky Mark busts out the immortal line "ya'll better run, these white cops is crazy"? Too bad. Gotta watch the DVD from beginning to end.
4. Kids films don't count...unless something really needs reviewin'.
5. We're going to try to proceed in alphabetical order (yes, we have so many its necessary to alphabetize them in order to find anything)...but this rule will likely be broken at some point when we just have to watch Tombstone.
And that's it! We start off with a definite keeper in Ace Venture: Pet Detective. So, here we go!
