Movie Addicts ?

Believe it or not, we watch atleast one movie a day.... Yes, that also includes weekdays when we have a very hectic schedule. In addition, the weekends could be a case for many more. So are we movie addicts or just plain bad routine ?

Well I think, its a little bit of both. No doubt we are movie fanatics and spare none that's released. But, more than anything we have got into a very bad routine of returning home and cuddling into our couch to watch a movie every nite. The parsippany public library is a major culprit here - a place which has a huge huge collection of DVD movies - English, as well as Indian and is conveniently on my way back from office. Ofcourse, then we do our part to visit the neighboring movie libraries 'Sa Re Ga Ma' and 'Patel Video', for hindi, malayalam and tamil movies, apart from the occasional visits to the movie theatres (especially 'Cine Plaza' in North Bergen) .

So as I speak, a pop-up outlook alert from Blockbuster online dvd rentals informs me, that my three DVD requests ( Aviator, Meet the Fockers and Raghu Romeo ) have been shipped.
Then ofcourse I have another 4 English DVDs from the parsippany library, a hindi movie "Main, Meri Patni Aur Woh" and ofcourse a malayalam movie "Nammakkuparakkam Munthirithoppukal" waiting for us at home.

And if we don't have anything rented/borrowed we have our own collection to fall back on -
DDLJ, Yahaan,Bend it like Beckham,Remember the Titans,Socha Na Tha, Hulchul, In Harihar Nagar, Akare Akare Akare, Chandupottu, Nandhanam, Entrapment, Minority Report, 50 first dates, Catch me if you can, Nine Months, Salaam Namaste,Kaaka kaaka.......

So may be then we are addicted.
