Nope... not at all... but they definitely like doing it!

Played a trivia game with another friend and found out I am getting...

Cujo: 25th Anniversary Edition Monstrous canine evil stalks a helpless, isolated family in rural Maine. Vic and Donna Trenton (Daniel Hugh-Kelly and Dee Wallace) struggle to repair their crumbling marriage, while their young son Tad (Danny Pintauro) befriends a hulking, lovable, 200-pound St. Bernard named Cujo. With Vic away on business, Donna and Tad take their decrepit car to be fixed at the remote farm of their mechanic (Ed Lauter). As their aging Pinto sputters to a stop and dies, Cujo appears. But the once docile dog has undergone a hideous transformation - and becomes a slavering, demonic, implacable killer possessed by almost supernatural strength... and unholy cunning. Critically acclaimed, CUJO is a fearsome, spine-chilling tour de force from the most popular name in horror!

An upgrade!

When you play these games, do you make the assumption what movie you'll get, or do they tell you? Because, I am wondering if you ever thought you'd get one film and then actually got another...?

[addicted2dvd]

Nope... they always tell me when I guess right or wrong.

The trivia game... I have 1 clue for 2 more titles. Just don't know where to go with them.

A friend of mine planned this for a Christmas present... but it just arrived to her house today so there is no way it will get to me in time for Christmas... so she is sending this one to me after the holidays.

8 Simple Rules: The Complete Second Season An all-star cast including David Spade and James Garner drops in to help Cate (Katey Sagal) cope with the loss of family patriarch Paul (the late John Ritter). Now she finds herself laying down the 8 rules to keep up with three teenagers on her own. Laughter is the healer this season, as the Hennessys discover life's ups and downs and the strength of their family.

I really enjoyed watching the first season... so I can't wait to check out this season. I looked into it. It is a shame... John Ritter is only in the first three episodes of Season 2 before his untimely passing. Hopefully the show don't lose too much without him!
