Background Movies: The Noise While I Work

Try and soak this image in for a while.

As a guy who does most of his work from his home office, I tend to just have the TV on in the background all day while I work.  I turn my head and check out what’s on the TV every so often, and if I’m doing a tedious task that doesn’t involve audio, I can hear what’s going on relatively well.  I usually just leave it on one channel for most of the day, and every so often I’ll change the channel like when I eat lunch or something.  If you’ve never just left your TV on all day, every day, let me tell you…  they play the EXACT SAME movies over and over again for weeks at a time.  This is a list of those movies that keep coming on that I usually check out in random out-of-sequence chunks, until I can piece together a full story in like two weeks time.

So again, as just a disclaimer, I have seen none of the movies listed below all the way through.  Did any of them redeem themselves in the scenes I missed?  I doubt it…  But you tell me…?

I’ve seen a bunch of new movies recently, five to be exact, and I thought I’d just group them conveniently into a single post.  I didn’t go to the theater five times like an insane person though, only three times, then I caught another on HBO, and the last on Comcast On-Demand (two weeks ago, actually).

A Few Documentaries I’ve Seen Recently

The last few weeks I’ve been in a documentary watching kind of mood (including rewatching most of my Planet Earth blu-ray set), and I’ve racked up a small list of documentaries that other people should probably check out if the concepts catch their eye.
