Tonight, I decided to just stay in and watch some movies. I checked my DVD library, and selected a few. So far, I’ve watched _The Longest Yard_ (the original 1974 version), and _The Dirty Dozen_. Next up may be _Kelly’s Heroes_ or _Die Hard with a Vengeance_ (aka Die Hard III). I haven’t decided yet. Gentlemen, and those ladies who would care to answer, what would be on your “Guy’s Night” must-see list? ---

If she catches you watching porn, words might be exchanged. But if she catches you watching \_\_\_\_\_, which is a guy’s movie, it’s no harm. no foul. What fills in the blank for you? ---

> [@Krokodil](#): > > Spartacus This reminded me of the Spartacus: Blood and Sand series from Starz. That’s pure guys-night-in show. Seriously. In one episode you’ll have boobs, then Spartacus’ll kill someone in a completely imaginative way, then more boobs. The final episode of the season was titled “Kill Them All.” ---

Are “guys” only allowed to watch movies about violence? _Glengarry Glen Ross_ is on my list…no violence in it at all, but still a macho movie. ---
