So my wife and I use Blockbuster Online instead of Netflix. Not quite the selection of movies, but they arrive much faster and you get a couple free in-store rentals each month, plus sometimes coupons for a flat-out free movie.
Their online servers, though, leave something to be desired. At Mother Goose's suggestion, I put "Over the Top" on the queue. It is a very manly movie, about Sly Stallone, who is a truck driving arm-wrestler! You can't get more manly than that! Well, maybe if he also killed commies. I don't know.
Here is what Blockbuster suggested I might enjoy if I like "Over the Top":

I hope you all notice that the fourth entry is the charming and sweet Mandy Moore movie "A Walk to Remember". I don't know what in their computers has these two confused, but damn...made me chuckle.
