Update: we watched the 1st indiana jones movie with DS4 tonight. He liked it. It helped that I told him ahead of time what sort of creepy thing was about to happen (I can't believe I can remember this movie so well!) The DVD had a special feature showing how they did the "melting face," which DS thought was pretty cool. I thought it would be good to see the technology behind the creepy parts, so he would better understand that movies are fake. One of the guys who worked on the melting face said, with extreme glee, "you'll have this memory in your head forever!" So, I feel for all of you who can't get the scary pictures out of your head, now that I know the creators of these images are intending just that.
We talked a bit about world wars too. I guess the benefit of the DVD is that you can discuss all this stuff as it happens without bothering the people sitting next to you.
