Need movie recs

Let's pretend ::cough:: that I've seen practically no new movies in the past 6 years. I just joined Blockbuster Online, and I need recommendations. What (other than The Lord of the Rings Trilogy) do you recommend? I like romance, but not too mainstream. I like drama. I like some sci-fi. Anything with a gay theme will go to the top of the list. But I'm open to anything you want to recommend.

So how about it?

ETA: I knew this kind of post would get a fair number of responses, but wow. Now I might have to actually keep my Blockbuster Online membership. LOL You can keep reccing, but I think my list is long enough for now, and plenty of them are currently available too. Thanks everybody!

I'm thinking about switching from Netflix to Blockbuster. What's the diff other than pricing by about $2 give or take? I also hear Amazon.com is getting into the renting act.

I tried the Blockbuster thing for my free ipod thing and loved it. I will be up front and admit that I work for Blockbuster but I thought it was great. I got my movies really fast, the slection was better than even what's in the stores and they send you coupons for free in-store rentals as well.

I got a flyer from them, but I didn't actually check it out. I know I really have to work to find something to rent from Netflix. I hate paying $23 a month and not really taking advantage of it.

Don't know. Never used Netflix. ::shrug::

Just reading this thread for the movie recs, but OMG THAT ICON!!

That's one of my old X-Files manipulations. You can find them here: http://www.squidge.org/~jenepherre/manips.html

The icon on this post is another one of them.

Right now it's cheaper than Netflix. I think the have an intro special for 2 weeks free and then $17.95 a month as opposed to Netflix's $21.95. Plus you could help someon out with their freeiPod thingy.
