It has been many years since I rented a movie. I think it was Guarding Tess for a movie night.

I subscribe to Zip.ca (the Canadian version of netflix).

I only rent kids movies. It's a nice treat for Sunday nights.

This is the last movie I received:

I liked this one too!!

The first and last scenes were a little scary. What's a good movie without a dash of scary though, right?

I'm really hoping that they break the hamster out into a Saturday morning cartoon. Bolt himself is likely a franchise, but I'd watch the hamster every week.

We bought this movie. It's the only movie that my 3-year-old will sit down and watch. It's become a great babysitter.

Quantum of Solace. Not bad, but not totally Bond like. It built up for another sequal.

I honestly don't remember...

The Hollywood Video near me closed a year or two ago... 'lost their lease' allegedly...

The supergiantveryoldlegendary video place near me closed a year or so before that to become just a mail order place out of some warehouse somewhere...

The Blockbuster Video near me closed... a number of years before that....

There's one small (but chain) place still open near me... however, I haven't gone in there in ages and it keeps getting eaten by the store next door taking more space... I'd say the pr0n is keeping them in business, but with the internet and netflix-style pr0n rental-by-mail places, I don't know how they do it.

And I don't do netflix (yet)...

And I don't have cable...

And while the free library has a decent DVD collection... I think I might owe them some late fees from some books from a while ago... (WHOOPS! I'll pay them soon, I swear! Hmmm maybe with the millions I'm making in Mahalo Dollahs! :D )

So.. it's SORT-of like renting (at least the prices are about the same for in-store rentals..) but I tend to wait till Black Friday and then go out and buy a bunch of the movies that are on sale for like $2 or $3 (not those cheapie movies and tv show dvds, but like real hollywood production dvds with the extras and everything..) That way, I get the pleasure of being able to watch them again and again, or go through their extras, the commentaries, etc. at a leisurely pace, and potentially in the future, sell them and/or give them away.. all at the same cost of what rentals sometimes are.. I don't remember the list of what I got last BF (probably about 15 different DVDs).. but the two in front of me right now are... Spaceballs and A Beautiful Mind...

That being said... I've recently gotten 'addicted' to Hulu... and while I was watching TV shows for a while (I'm currently working through the absurd hilarity that is Lost in Space.. Oh the PAIN, the PAIN!) I suddenly noticed that they have full length movies too!

So, I paid for my 'rental' of Hulu movies by watching their commercials... and so the last movie I actually watched was... Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour, etc.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somewhere_in_Time_(film) However, it has since 'expired' off of Hulu. (Things expire off of Hulu, especially the movies apparently... who would have known?)

lol - that was an entertaining answer.

I've sent you a tip in the hopes that your Mahalo Millions can at the very least, repay your debt to the local library.

Role Models with Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott.

Very funny. Not as funny as I Love You, Man. But still funny. The best part are the role players.

Milk, Semi-Pro and Atonement.

Milk was great, highly recommend. Semi-Pro was funny but not as much as Will Ferrel's other movies. Atonement was a disappointment. Jumped around too much and I guess I was expecting more since it was nominated for an Oscar.

Rachel Getting Married. A great performance by Anne Hathaway, but overall an extremely boring movie.

And here I was thinking I was the only person who thought this movie was boring. I totally agree that while Anne's performance was award winning, the movie just stood still for way to long.

Does Netflix count? If so, I'm still watching Perfect Creature, an alternative world Vampire flick that is way better than I thought it would be. Just finished The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, which did the old-fashioned suspense building thing perfectly.

But, if you mean rented from a rental store, it's been a while. Once I rented two movies from a DC movie rental place: Alone in the Dark and TMNT 2. When I went back the next week to return the movies, the place was closed, shuttered, and the shelves were empty. Sadly, Alone in the Dark was not even worth watching once, let alone owning. I had a hard time just giving the damned thing away. I gave TMNT 2 to a fan of the series, so that was good. But I kept thinking that, had I known they were going under, what movies should I have rented instead?

(Calls up his Netflix queue...) Malcolm X.

Great acting on Denzel Washington's part... And I learned more about who Malcolm X was and how he got there. Very interesting...

Australia. It did terribly at the box office and I did not hear good things about it but it was actually quite good. I enjoyed it. The little boy in the movie is a great actor - adorable.

If Netflix counts, the last movie my family rented by their streaming service was Back to the Future 1, 2 and 3, because my kids who are 6, 8 and 13 had never seen it. The last one we had netflix deliver by mail, because they didn't have it available to stream, was Transformers.

Stop Loss

an army buddy of mine and i rented it and then after it we had a nice discussion about the movie but more about the points the movie brings up: Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome, Suicide rates among vets, struggle of readjusting to civilian life, as well as the stop loss program its self (which we had found out is in the process of being shut down for Iraq).

Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Funky 3D glasses are included in the DVD package. The special effects are terrific, and the 3D aspects make the leap to the small screen fairly well.
