Netflix Friends

I've signed up for Netflix. I actually signed up about a year ago and I have become an addicted. I have over 350 movies on my list and I can't watch them fast enough.

Netflix offers their members to chance to connect to their friends through Netflix. You get to look at what they have watched, what they liked and disliked and what is currently on their list. That's great you might think. Well, not so much. First of all, my mom is one of my Netflix friends. Not really a big deal since my mom and I are good friends, but it does cross my mind as a put movies on my list, and as I rate them.

BUT what has become more of a problem is when I completely disagree with one of my friends about a movie. I was just looking through some of the movies my friend Fred liked, rated 4-5 stars. Right there in the middle of the list was "The English Patient". He loved it. I can never look at Fred the same way again. The movie was a strange slow torture forced on the world. It was a horrible book and an even worse movie. How can Fred and I be friends? How can I look Fred in the eye? I must confront him.
