Assuming you have electricity in your home today on your day off, we thought we’d create a list of movies to watch on today’s snow day.
Classics
They were good then and they are even better now. And black and white looks good HD. Take some time to watch a bit of movie history.
My Fair Lady
Casablanca
Gone With the Wind
Citizen Kane
Action
It’s probably a good idea to feel active because you’re in your pj’s and eating anything you can find. A good action movie can get blood flowing. That counts for cardio, right?
Top Gun
Die Hard
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
The Dark Knight
Musical
Come on. You know you think you can sing. And no one is listening. No one can judge you. If anyone asked what you watched you can give them a movie from the “action” list.
The Wizard of Oz
My Fair Lady
Grease
Educational
For those smart kids out there (or dumb ones aspiring to become smarter), a good flick about history could fill the gap of no class today.
Schindler’s List
Saving Private Ryan
To Kill a Mockingbird (not educational – but easier than reading)
Dead Poets Society
Iconic
Movies you should watch just because they are awesome.
The Shawshank Redemption
The Godfather
E.T. The Extra Terrestrial
Pulp Fiction
The Matrix
Star Wars (any of)
Just for Laughs
Cold weather can put you in a slump of a mood. Here are some “pick-me-ups.”
Tommy Boy
Elf
The Naked Gun
Ghostbusters
Second Look
It was good the first time and it probably gave you the “ah-ha” feeling when you figured it out. Watch these again to catch details.
The Sixth Sense
Inception
Usual Suspects
Staff Picks
We’re not movie experts, but we can give our own “two thumbs up.” So here are our picks.
The Princess Bride: To avenge your father’s death
Back To The Future: 1.21 Jigawatts! Great Scott.
A Few Good Men: You can’t handle the truth.
The Karate Kid: Wax on, Wax off
Jurassic Park: Dinosaurs eating people while on the toilet – always cool
Forest Gump: Life is like a box of chocolates
