What your neighbors are watching tonight

LWord DVD coverAccording to Netflix, here are the DVDs that people in Albany are currently renting "much more than other Netflix members."

DVD is the best way to watch TV shows

2. Tideland
2005 film from Terry Gilliam

3. The Aviator
Leo as Howard Hughes

4. Slither
fun, and kind of gross, monster movie starring Pittsfield's Elizabeth Banks

Will Ferrell as Frank the Tank

6. Requiem for a Dream
OK, so that's a bit of a contrast from #5

7. Big Love: Season 2
polygamy as soap opera
