How About a Weekly DVD Adventure?

Are you looking for a fresh and engaging way to enjoy movies with someone?

My grandson and I did this by combining the alphabet with our love for movies. This unique approach involves selecting a movie that begins with each letter of the alphabet from your library or personal collection and watching one film per week. It’s been an entertaining adventure each week as we selected the movies beginning with the letter of the week– a fun challenge that not only encourages you to revisit old favorites but also to discover hidden gems you may have overlooked. We found favorites and duds. One of our favorites was How to Marry a Millionaire and a dud turned out to be Sleeper. Share the experience by Inviting friends or family to join in the fun. They can help pick the weekly movie or watch along, sparking lively discussions about each film. You’ll enjoy the popcorn even more.

The concept is simple: begin with the letter “A” and choose a DVD whose title starts with that letter. The following week, move on to “B,” and continue through the alphabet, tackling one letter each week. You may find yourself choosing classics, comedies, dramas or even documentaries. This method adds structure and anticipation to your movie nights, turning them into an unforgettable cinematic journey.

Discover what the library has to offer. After 26 weeks you know the librarians by name, and you’ll find yourself getting into a discussion about your picks. This approach encourages you to explore and appreciate the full range of films you have available including those you may have neglected or forgotten. You’ll naturally encounter a wide array of genres and stories, keeping your movie nights fresh and interesting. Planning ahead for each week’s letter and movie can create excitement and make your film-watching ritual something to look forward to.
