    I've been wondering about the Angelina Jolie movie "The Changeling". Has anyone seen it? Do you recommend it?

    Yes, that surely *is* a good value! I was thinking it would be like three times that much or more. After you pop the DVD back in the mail to them, how long is it until you receive the next? You can always only have one at a time, yes?

    It's only two days roundabout; they have "warehouses (?)" all over the US so you get them really quick. If you've picked a title that is only at one warehouse it may take you a little longer, but this has only happened to us one time. You may be able to have two out at a time...I don't keep track of it, but it seems we have two at a time.

    Tropic Thunder

    I think it was on HBO that we saw Tropic Thunder. Robert Downey (who was excellent), Ben Stiller, Steve Coogan, Jack Black, Nick Nolte, Tom Cruise, and several others, made up a very good ensemble cast.
    There are some very bloody (yet funny) special effects, and I wouldn't let a young child watch it. Boys who like "gross" stuff will probably like it. After the first half hour or so, most of the bloody stuff is done with.
    We thought is was hilarious. I'd recommend it. Excellently funny.

    That sounds great. I did actually look this up and it's down to deciding whether we want to be able to have just one at a time or not. I think the next step up from the $8.99 was $13.99 which allows more than one at a time... still better than renting and certainly better than going to the theater.
