Inspired by bankholdup, who told me to make my own thread...nicely of course ;) , I decided to make a thread about what us Canadian schmoes who use 'Movies for Me' got.

Of course, there'll only be about three people posting, but hey...we're Canadian. :D

Anyway:

The Birth of a Nation
The Best Years of Our Lives
American Splendor

Sent them back today. Since BOAN was scratched up a bit, they should be sending another one soon.

Hey blankpage. How are they speedwise with shipping movies up? How many rentals do you think you could get a month if you watched your selections within a fast timeframe? Is it worth the price?

Er, it usually takes 2-3 days for the flicks to get there, depending on where you live. You can either choose 3 flicks or 5 flicks to get. In a month, depends, I suppose. Maybe 10, 15 possibly.

Not to be rude, but I feel like I'm spamming and I'd rather just stay on topic, if that's ok. :)

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Solid 9/10 from me, and in my top 50. It's terrible, but just too terrible to pass over. Love it up.

I did enjoy it, but not that much. I thought it was terrible, but it was so goofy, that I had great time watching it. 6/10, but the good kind of 6/10.

I still haven't watched Samurai II, so haven't gotten any new ones.
