What kinds of films are you looking for? And, are you into documentaries? I'm happy to help with some recommendations if you can give us some rough sketches.

You're a cheesehead also? Nice! I'm from Beaver Dam (close to Madison). Where are you from? To answer your question, I'm really into anything interesting. Right now I have Before Trilogy, Something Wild, and Black Girl in my cart.

Not usually, but anything is possible. There have been parts of flash sales where everything was 50% off and even one where the 50% briefly came off the selling price!

Yes. I'm in Texas now, but I'll always be a Cheesehead. Wisconsin will always be home to me.

I was born at St. Mary's Hospital in Milwaukee, and raised in Waukesha. I moved to Texas in late 1989, but I'm still a huge Packers/Brewers/Bucks/Badgers fan.

I haven't looked at your collection yet, but have you explored any films from Ingmar Bergman (The Seventh Seal), or Akira Kurosawa (ie Seven Samurai)? They're great places to start if you're wanting to expand your scope to include more international films. If you like old Hollywood, Elia Kazan's On The Waterfront is a masterful film. Brando at his very best. I also love Sidnet Lumet's 12 Angry Men.

Hmmm. I'm in NY so I usually pay tax on my flash orders. This time however I was paying completely by gift certificate since I stocked up in December when they were offering double points. Somehow paying entirely by gift certificate = no tax. Not sure why that would be. Worth trying I guess of you're NY or KY.
