my wife likes to purchase several movies when they go to DVD each year at this time. My goal is to prevent her from wasting money on garbage. I'm not much of a movie fan to begin with, but it seems that each year Hollywood puts out more and more crap.

Anyway....

I'm trying to compile a list of movies that I don't want my wife to purchase because she'll want me to watch them with her, which I won't, and we'll eventually end up having an argument. so to keep peace in the home, here's my list of things I don't want to have in my home:

The Notebook - Just reading the plot summary on IMDB was enough to put this at the top of the list.

Somewhere in Time - (I've been able to avoid it on VHS/DVD for 15 years and running now. I'm not about to let this streak come to an end.)

Message in a Bottle - My wife watched this the other day on some lame tv channel and has decided that it's a must own. No way. I'd rather wax my pubes.

Stepmom - Uuugghh.

Pearl Harbor - Nice try Mrs. Padrino. It's as much about Pearl Harbor as Tianic was about the Titanic. Don't want it, nor do I need it. I already own Tora! Tora! Tora!

Anyone other suggestions as to what to avoid?
