Great films for Dad on Father's Day
Categories: Just For Dads, That's Entertainment
There are compromises in every marriage, and renting videos as a couple definitely takes compromise. This Father's Day, why not give your spouse the gift of freedom to watch his favorite movies in peace? The gift of free time is often one of the most important gifts you can give, and video rentals are a pretty inexpensive form of entertainment, for those of you who are gift giving on a budget.There are two ways to let Dad enjoy his favorite rentals:
1) Sit him in his favorite arm chair. Place his favorite beverage and snack food nearby. Pack up the kids and leave him alone with the remote control for the day.
2) Wait until the kids are in bed, then plug in his favorite DVD. Vow to watch it without complaint or sarcastic commentary.
Either method will be highly appreciated, I'm sure. Check out the gallery for some movie ideas before you hit the video store!

A related idea is that my husband and I rent past seasons of Tv shows and watch them together after the kids go to bed. It's like a minidate every few days, curled up on the couch together. Shorter than a movie (since we have *ahem* other things to do also) and if you get the right series with multiple seasons, you get guaranteed chill-out-with-your-partner time for months. For Fathers Day I am buying him all the past seasons of TThe Office - we've seen some of them, but we both enjoy the show, and will look forward to popcorn and TV in the evening, rather than catching up on work/laundry/email.

Could the movie picks be anymore stereotypical? A lot of us Dads are a little more complex, intelligent and interesting and have a wider range of interests.
