Wanted Twilight Jumper

Question

I just completed the trilogy of douche. Wanted. Twilight. And. Jumper. These 3 films are so similar I cannot believe it. Its like Siamese Susan Broyle triplets joined at the eyebrows. Its Netflix. I guess I would still rent this trash if I was leaving feetprints at Blockbuster stores still, but since I can just click away and I clicked these 3 and they just happened to arrive in order.
Its like all 3 films were written by the same person. Twilight is heavy on the panty broth, but all 3 films are really about very weird looking pretty people, Hayden Vader, St. Angie, and The Twilight dude. And they all have the ability to either travel super fast or just jump space and do superhuman stuff. And Im like WTF? Twilight took a few more beers because for me it really dragged during all the eyelash scenes.

I know, they made it for 13 yr old girls. I didnt hate it. I didnt really hate any of them. I just couldnt believe the coincidences in all the films. Jumper and Wanted both had very well liked Black actors as 2nd billing. All 3 films had story elements of the antag needing to go back to protect a loved one but it was already too late.

C'mon. Cough up some good Netflix recomends. I have thought about canceling, cause Ive pretty much finished Netflix. Right now Im just clicking alot of classics just to have something in my queue.

On the IFC Channel I just caught the second half of a really good movie from 2003 I've never even heard of. 11:14, with Shawn Hatosy and Hilary Swank.

Let me go compile my "black guy gets killed first" list and get back to you. (I will not include "Glory" in that list.)

Kinky Boots?
Life and Death of Colonel Blimp?
Blind Woman's Curse?
Haldane of the Secret Service (only if you love Houdini) Gonzo?
Eyes Without a Face?
this is just the stuff from my husband's queue (Kinky Boots is mine). Also Brak Show.
Tonari No Totoro (get the original if you can, not english dubbed My Neighbor Totoro)
There's an awful lot out there. Don't blame netflix if you can't find it

So, I learned from a class that the sidekick (black or not) often gets killed at the end of the second act
about a million years ago, just after the Jurassic age, I think

Anyway, I learned this just before going to see Black Rain. Or maybe it was Rising Sun.
Anyway, one of these films was ruined for me because for the first time I could see the setup coming a mile away.
No, don't kill him, I thought, to no avail.
The other movie was ruined for me by the endless repeating of some *** or rape tape.
Like dude, solve your voyeur issue on your time and get the heck on with the story.
Anyway, since I've ruined movies for so many of my friends, this just reminded me of one
of the first times they were ruined for me by learning about structure....
Oddly reminiscent,

Recent stuff? "The Bank Job" was pretty good.
You could do a Kar Wai Wong Sorta-Romance Fest and watch "2046", "My Blueberry Nights" (which is really awful, but I'm pushing a theme here) and "Chung Him sam lam".
For date-night "Sherrybaby" is pretty good. "Chumscrubber" isn't bad. "Boogie Nights" can set a certain tone.
Back in your comfort zone why not stick the complete works of Russ Meyer in your queue?
"The Machinist": If nothing else you'll pick up a nice, cautionary message on the proper way to operate a punch-press.
"Requiem For a Dream" and "Wit" together will help pull you down off that 4 day Ecstasy high.
The original "Wings of Desire".
If you haven't seen the bloated, unnecessary Director's Cut of "Apocalypse Now", you should check it out.
For Noir Night get "The Grifters", "Jackie Brown" and "Out of Sight", "Miller's Crossing", "Blue Velvet" and "Mulholland Drive".

Order both "Kill Bill" movies watch and send the first one back and destroy the second one: the 2 hours you save may be your own, or that of someone you love.
