subject: Dvd Rental For Summer [print this page] DVD rental is more of a winter activity, by all accounts.
For a start, there's the hours in front of a computer screen and then a TV screen - much bettered in summer by actually going outside and doing something summery.
Then there's the fact that all the films that are really about the summer time are only likely to make you want to go outside and actually be in the sun. Which you can generally do, it being summer.
DVD rental for summer is not such a bad idea, though, for the following reasons.
First, summer is a time when - more than winter - large groups of people tend to get together for no particular end (on the beach, in the park) and then meander about until darkness.
As a post darkness activity for a large group of people a decent dvd rental is hard to beat, frankly. The same could hardly be said of game rental, for example, unless the large group largely consisted of adolescent boys and their girlfriends in which case the appetite for such things is as insatiable as it is entirely inexplicable.
Second, summer is a time when children have time off school.
In situations such as the one above they need to be entertained but, if the children in question are your own progeny, they also need to entertained almost all of the time that they're not sleeping.
For this purpose well-timed dvd rental free trials are hard to beat, providing wholesome and, most importantly, near silent entertainment for hours as at a time and at a cost of nothing at all.
Third, just as 'It's a Wonderful Life' cannot be properly enjoyed away from Christmas, there are certain films that can only be properly be appreciated in the summer.
These include almost all American post-high school, pre-college classics like 'Dazed and Confused' because you're never really as dazed and confused in winter as you are in the summer.
There's also a film called summer rental which stars John Candy as a burned-out and grouchy air traffic controller who takes his family on holiday.
In Florida, the comedy turns farcical and ever more slapstick as Candy's character lies in the sun too long and has his lobster stolen.
Other only semi-appalling films which fall into this category include: RV: runaway vacation; the first version of the parent trap which has many memorable hiking scenes and forgetting sarah marshall.
