They're all in your Netflix queue?
I could have checked this before responding, but did not.
You're in the right general Sphere of Influence, but no.
By the way - people can get 1 point for a correct guess on the basic commonality, and another extra credit point for providing the context/nuance behind the fact.
All have been on Dan's list of reviews. See e-mail from a year or two ago. Also see reviews on Oliopolis?
WRONG!
I knew I didn't have a snowball's chance in hell. You couldn't just say wrong with a period? Why the exclamation mark? Are you strongly moved to say wrong?
How about all of those movies suck? Am I closer? :)
You sounded so certain. I wanted to make sure you knew you were wrong in no uncertain terms.
Here's a clue: I have no idea if they suck.
they are each 96 minutes in length and you have not seen them before
I have not seen them before, true, but that's not the answer I'm looking for. Though, it's maybe a clue.
These are movies you've been recommended to see in Netflix, based on your current reviews and rankings, and that you've subsequently moved into your queue.
Or, sans Netflix, movies you've been told to see by close confidants, because it's presumed you'd like them.
Wrong, though perhaps about the closest in spirit of all the guesses, yet.
so...the answer...
