Dare I mention, but on the original posting for the First Lady contest, it states :
“We have two copies, which will be awarded to the two readers who supply the most interesting (and true) First Lady facts.”

Did it turn out you omly had one copy/one winner?

I’ve only seen movies 9 and 10… of which, I still watch The Goonies religiously on a regular basis. Couldn’t care less about the other 8!!

Please never link to ONTD again! (although I read it religiously.) “Flight of the Navigator” should be on the geeky kid movies list. Classic.

Cuitlacoche is not that bad. Sure, it looks fairly disgusting here, but what canned food doesn’t? Eating fungus isn’t exactly a novelty for most people.

I had Hotel Rwanda for a long time. It’s just a really heavy movie and I always thought I wasn’t in the mood. But it’s also one of the best movies I’ve ever seen and I immediately thought “why didn’t I watch this earlier”. If you haven’t watched it, don’t hesitate, it’s not a chore it’s fantastic.

My roommate had La Strada out for about 3 months until I watched it. I managed to keep my eyes open for about 3 minutes total.

Why LOTR isn’t on that geek films for kids list is beyond me. I’d also add 2001 and Fantasia.

The Netflix predicament is silly. If you’re not going to watch a movie in a timely fashion, return it. You’re wasting your money if you’re turnover time is too long. Netflix has no policy against re-ordering movies.
