So...your recommendations?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Good "come over and watch a movie" movies?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

First of all movies, should only be done once in awhile (every 7-8 dates max). You really can't go wrong with a movie if you are a DJ... it's not about the movie it's about you and her. If you are relying on a movie to bring you two together, then you're hopeless. Sometimes it's a good idea to get a movie you know a lot about (enlighten her with something you know).

"Platoon" by Oliver Stone. It will work everytime.
In all seriousness, I would find out what type of movies she likes. You don't necessarily need to watch chick flicks everytime, but I think comedies would be popular with most women. Romantic comedies mixed in with action comedies seems like a winner.

Concert DVDs have been a staple in my repetoire for years.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Movies are for kids!!!! Oh yeah, you are kids!!!
I guess in-home movies have become the modern hor excuse to be alone with her pimp!! Hors know this and they are expecting the pimp to make the move that he has been genetically wired to do!!
I'll bet you that when she comes over to your place that her panties match her bra!!!! Hors know what is going to happen!! Any takers???

Catchy flick and some decent acting.
In my honest opinion, try to make sure its a bad movie. You don't want something very engrossing or you'll have a harder time phase-shifting into intimacy. All the movie is is a pre-text for isolation anyway. If she wants to be alone with you, she'll take the bait, no matter how terrible the movie is.

I agree.
I got away with watching movies like American Psycho and Requiem For A Dream.

I avoid movies unless we're already intimate. Trying to use a movie to get a woman in the mood who isn't already into you via a movie is usually a fools errand.
I have found that watching some of the "reality shows" such as the Real World helps as a catalyst to find out about your girl and what drives her. Shows like that is a emotional time bomb not only for the actors but also for most people who watch the show.
Watch your girl to see how she reacts to the show and listen to what she says. Notice when she sits back and crosses her arms, notice when she sits on the edge of the couch listening intently. These are signs of what ticks her off and what inspires her respectively.
Finally, if you really want to get into her head, during the commercials ask her "So what do you think about that?" Most times she'll tell you in no uncertain terms. The problem would just be getting her to stop.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
