A record of the films and television shows I've made Jenny watch, and her overall thoughts on them.

The Project

This project was Jenny's idea, as she finds it quite funny that I expend so much effort attempting to make her watch things she doesn't want to watch. For my own part I am amazed at how much (of what I consider to be) classic popular culture she's missed out on. Even though my success rate is quite low I love it when I do find something that she unexpectedly enjoys, and for me this outweighs the defeats.

Jenny especially dislikes sci-fi and action movies, so these will feature heavily on the list.

Note that this page only lists things that Jenny was absolutely opposed to watching and only gave in because I continually insisted that she must watch them. Anything she actually wanted to watch will not be listed.

The List

Name Thoughts Verdict
Not without its good points but overall so depressing that I wish I could unwatch it. Negative
Asked for it to be switched off within 10 minutes of start. Negative
At the start it seemed quite boring and I was wondering if anything was actually going to happen, but then later on when it got more intense and they started talking about their feelings it got better. Thumbs up
Far too violent, but redeemed slightly by the twist. Question?
Vague memories of not liking the character. Negative
Thumbs up
A Swedish horror film. Need I say more. Negative
