I have managed to put yet another sidebar feature on W&C, two of them actually: Movies on TiVo & Recently Screened. Right now they are on the lower right hand column.
Thanks to the major network shows going with repeats through most of March, we have remarkably caught up on 90%+ of our "regular" TiVo programming. When that happens, I tend to load up the TiVo with movies. As I have mentioned before, we don't get out to the movies all that much these days -- so there are many, many, many movies to choose from (and heck we are paying for all these premium channels!). Thanks to TiVo it is quite easy to find a good movie that is airing at 3:15am on a Tuesday morning.
The list is quite long (and growing more over the next week). Now keep in mind, this just means that the movie is on our TiVo... it doesn't necessarily mean we will get around to watching it. I often find myself deleting and re-scheduling a movie for a later date (since we only tend to watch movies on Saturday night)... or just deleting a movie when the TiVo fills up again with other stuff. Also, be prepared for some of the films to stick around... I confess that Mystic River has been on our TiVo since December! Haven't quite been in the right "mood" for that one (hear it is a downer).
Underneath that list, I do list the ones that we have got around to watching. We caught Ray recently on DVD and watched a TiVo'd Supersize Me this weekend. Highly recommend that documentary... but be prepared to re-consider ever eating fast food with any sort of regularity.
Oh, how did I do the lists? Well, just used the TypePad TypeList "book" feature... you can just copy in the ASIN for the DVD from Amazon (vs. the ISBN for a book) and still get the neat little thumbnail graphic.
