Movies you should probably see in your Birthday Week:
Real Genius
The Goonies
Hot Fuzz
Shawn of the Dead
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

Good suggestions. I just saw Real Genius so it's unlikely I'll watch it so soon.

WEll, it' a good start. Up next: The Goonies! HEY YOOOO GUUUYYSSS!!

I'm amazed at the depth and variety of your choices. Honestly, I fear I lack the brain power to truly comprehend and appreciate any of those on the level they deserve. I bow to your wisdom. 

I wish there was reason behind my choices. So far it's been "that looks interesting".

Can you get DVD's from your library.
I have no idea how big your town is, we have 6000 people and the best DVD's are free at the library.

Of coarse they have few that are Hollywood most are foreign or independent.

My favs. Amelee and The Very long Engagement...French Films with Audrey Tartou

"J'T'Aime Paris

I will have to bo back through blogs to find the others.

Our library is pretty awesome.
