My sister's birthday today and we're deviating from the norm...

The usual thing is we go out for a family meal, but my sister is going to London on a School Trip tomorrow and has to be at school for 6:45am. As a result she wants to choose any DVD from Blockbuster's and also we get a takeaway for dinner. To make it more of a family thing, we all have to watch the DVD.

I have no problems with that, that's fair.

The only catch is she loves horror films, and I can't even sit through the first 20 minutes of one. Since it's her choice what the DVD is, I'm dreading what she chooses, especially since it was my fault that she knows that she can pick a horror film. Factor in the point I made above, I have to sit through the entire thing.

I may pull this next year with my 4 hour Hamlet movie... (The Kenneth Branagh one, absolutely brilliant.)

And yes, I know the music I'm listening to is pretty ironic given the situation.


EDIT: The movie we're watching is Gran Tourino, which caught my interest, so I'm pretty happy.
