I like action movies too. I just can't stand horror movies. I love suspense/thrillers, but all the blood, guts, walking dead, etc get to me.

I figured I had the ultimate chick flick collection, but I don't have any of the movies listed so far.

Not really... If there is something in a theatre that I really want to see, I'll sneak out to the late late show on a weekday... Like Wednesday night at 10:30pm. She's cool with that. I don't do it too often... but for instance, I wanted to see the Matrix movies, and she wasn't so interested, so I kissed her goodnight and headed for the theatre. It was great because not too many people hit the late late show during the week, so I practically have the theatre to myself.

Plus, she's into this thing called "Stampin' Up," so sometimes she'll stamp her cards while watching a chick flick. Usually, I'll be upstairs bugging you guys, or working on OMane stuff.

We don't have late late shows. We only have late shows, and only on Friday and Saturday nights at that. :(

Okay, a chick flick, to me, is a romantic comedy, a romantic drama, or anything that makes you cry. And no, that doesn't mean you're crying because you have to watch it.

We have a theater in town that gives you a stamp for every movie ticket you purchase. After getting so many stamps, you can redeem them for free stuff like popcorn, candy, soda, or a free movie ticket. I thought that was what he meant by it.
