If one is going to go rent hollywood movies, they might as well get reg TV.

I agree and have both. The total amount of time I watch either is about 5 hours per week, and only after the sun goes down because my projector doesn't work very well during the day. Thank goodness most of the Bronco games were at night this past year.

I suppose, action movies with a good story line. I hate sci-fi, horror and gore.

Besides, I have to watch movies nowadays that are either chick flicks or those appropriate for a 6 year old with a precious spirit. That means we watch Movies like Cars, Cheaper by the Dozen II, Ant Bully, The Incredibles...and all those mushy kissy movies with no nudity...unless of course it is Jack Nicholson.

I rented the Sopranos one time, couldn't get through the first episode.

If you're over 17 then there's nothing wrong with watching an R rated movie. The Passion was an R rated movie.

Why "if you are over 17 there's nothing wrong with watching an R rated movie"?
