Hick towns are precisely why netflix was invented. Those three Satoshi Kon dvds are what put me over the edge into signing up.

Bee Season (hoped that it would be set in Cheltenham/Elkins Park, just like the book ... they moved the action (or lack of action) to Oakland. How can anything with Richard Gere not be good?)

Timeline (okay adaptation of the book that I wasn't terribly excited about to begin with ... not one of Crichton's best, but not as bad as Sphere or Congo).

Princess Mononoke (nice artistically, moderately good story line, but I still don't understand how the forest creatures became demons, since the Ironworks humans did not use magic. I also don't get how the title goes with the film ... there is no princess. Is this something like the spoon in the Matrix?)

I am also watching Dangermouse.
