kaitouI appreciate that you like to recommend things. But unlike Netflix, which often suggests things that I enjoy...like Rough Science, or Three Sheets (more posts about these later) you send me e-mail like this...
Dear Amazon.com Customer,
We've noticed that customers who have purchased or rated North by Northwest have also purchased Harlequin: The Waiting Game on DVD. For this reason, you might like to know that Harlequin: The Waiting Game will be released on January 20, 2009. You can pre-order yours by following the link below
Now, North by Northwest is a classic. It's CARY GRANT. It's HITCHCOCK. So what's this Harlequin?
"College friends Sarah Frazer (Chandra West, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry) and Amy Fuentes (Paula Abdul, TV's American Idol) become the center of a seductive conspiracy when Sarah's Uncle Lowell unexpectedly visits their art gallery. Claiming he has a gift from a recent vacation to Mexico, Lowell insists Sarah visit his estate. But when Sarah arrives there, Adrian, a handsome stranger who claims he knows Lowell, is waiting. Meanwhile, Carl, a real estate investor, has Amy coughing up clues on Lowell's whereabouts. Both Sarah and Amy fall for the mysterious men, but neither Carl nor Adrian is who they say they are, and the women may be no more than pawns in their game of deception."
One of these things does NOT EQUAL THE OTHER. Seriously, Amazon, you need to step up your game.
