Help me fill my Blockbuster queue
OK, I just signed up for Blockbuster Online and my queue is pretty light at this point. I am looking for some recommendations. Specifically family-friendly flicks. One thing that I am looking forward to is the big selection. So please include some gems that might not be widely available.
Anyone have much experience in anime? We love Miyazaki's recent flicks (Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, etc.) but were pretty disappointed in My Neighbor Totoro (a little too juvenile). How is Kiki's Delivery Service? What about some of his other earlier works? Any other anime worth checking out? Thanks in advance.

Kiki's Delivery Service is my favorite. My son (age 7) absolutely loves it.

This is one of my favorite (not-well-known) Samurai films:
Sword of Doom http://imdb.com/title/tt0060277/ Not really a family feel-good film. |

Out of curiosity, does Farrah speak Japanese? Do you?
