The Staff Favorites


Why Oliver and I should have our own shelf at Blockbuster.

So we were getting some new movies at Blockbuster, we have the freedom pass so we always have 2 movies with us, and we noticed the "Staff Favorites" section where each member of the staff gets their own shelf to display movies they like and think you should rent. We are checking them out, mainly because Serena has Bubba-Ho Tep on her shelf. We thought two things, 1. Wes, the guy currently behind the counter now creeps us out with his selection. 2. Oliver and I should have our own shelf. I think that people would appreciate our selections We have seen many bad comedies, unwatchable action films (The Heist -with Luke Perry and Ice-T not Heist with Gene Hackman and Danny DeVito), and a plethora of Teen Comedies (we rented DEBS last night and had to turn it off despite lots of hot lesbian action). I think this makes us very qualified to make a shelf of six movies. So without further ado, here is our list with a brief explanation:
Tombstone [1993]:
This selection was chosen by Oliver as his favorite movie of all time. In fact, he felt that we should just have six copies of it on our shelf. Also it's the original DVD that is on our shelf not the 2 Disc special edition. Oliver doesn't want to admit that version exists.
Superman: The Movie [1978]:
Though growing up Superman II was my favorite movie, the extra features on this DVD explaining how the movie was made, demonstrate it's superiority. Though because they were supposed to be two parts of one film we can count them both under this selection.
The Tao of Steve [2000]:
Be Steve, not Stu. Also, I am a fat fatist.
Next Friday [2000]:
It's not the best movie that's for sure but it's the most quotable. "Them ain't twenties"
