I have the opposite problem. I got a big shipment from yesasia today and I would be in the mood to watch all of them now. And I also am in the mood for a couple of different TV series.

Unfortunately, thanks to working crazy hours, I haven't had much time to watch any DVDs for like a month.
I'm hoping to change that soon.  I decided to watch Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade tonight...have it on now.  Not sure if I'll watch another DVD..or something from my DVR after this.

I am now sitting her trying to decide what (if anything) I want my theme for this weekend's movie marathon to be. So far I can't think of anything good I would be in the mood for.

Anyone have any good ideas for me?

How about "Movies That DIDN'T Star Sandra Bullock"?  :laugh:

The Best Films of Scott Baio?  Oh wait, we're still waiting for the first...  :tease:

Obviously, I have no real idea  :stars:

 :laugh:

my problem is I don't want to limit myself to a too small of a selection of titles. And I also want to be able to watch New titles that I never seen before as well as some of my old favorites that I may have seen before,

At this point I am thinking about TV Stars in the Movies... where I could go through the main cast all the TV series I have on DVD and see what movies I have with them in it. I think that could be enjoyable... and with 138 series that I have every episode of alone... I am sure there is anywhere from 300 to 600 titles I could choose from easily. And I would imagine there would be many of that I never seen before.

You don't want to limit yourself? Then how about a "DVD Profiler's Movie-Pick" marathon. Whatever comes up in movie pick, that's what you watch..
PSST... you can pre-filter for good stuff before using Movie Pick

I hate that movie pick thing... I personally thought it was the worst addition Ken made to the program. In my eyes it is nothing but a waste of space. Being in the mood for the title that I watch is the only way I could enjoy a marathon. I can't feel forced to watch anything in any particular order... when I try something like that is usually when my marathons are a big failure as I just hate to mess with it.

I even went as far as removing the button for it from the toolbar. :P

Not a big fan of it too. At first it looks like a nice addition, but the movie choosen are always in the same style. What I mean is that if I use it to pick adult movies to watch and it choose an eighties one first all the following one will be eighties productions from almost the same years.

How about a Not United States marathon? I don't want to say "Foreign" and make you watch all subtitles, but you must have a selection now of Canadian, British, etc, to make up a run. Obviously I'm trying to give you an excuse to watch Notes on a Scandal... :whistle:

I'm making these totally blind, not knowing what you'd done before:

- Martial Arts
- [Insert actor] cameo films
- Slapstick comedies
- Films based in [insert country]
- Feature-length tv episodes
- Moves that end in a negative tone
- Movies with an animal as a secondary character (eg: the monkey in Outbreak)
- Films with women that can kick ass
- Sports films
- Burt Reynolds movies (there are 90 or so of those :laugh:)
- X degrees of Kevin Bacon films (depends on the number of movies you want to watch; the last being a movie with Kevin Bacon)

I have a collection.
It can be found here.
No need to check it often.
I update it only twice a year!


Never go to bed mad. Sleep on the couch instead.

There are a few broken branches in every family tree.

Wow, Deja Vu! I'm sure I suggested something like this ages ago to try and make a more random marathon. But more like, pick a random film and make a connection to Kevin Bacon with every step and see how many films you can get to in your marathon. It only ends when you can't make a jump to anything else... or something like that anyway.
