Forget Flowers, Taquitos are the true way to our heart!
We watch movies to be entertained, and good movies can inspire conversation and deepen the connection that we have with one another. The key is to find films that will be meaningful for both you, to have the perfect date night movie… and don’t forget the snacks!!!
Oftentimes however, couples have different interests, which can make picking the perfect date night movie a challenge.
Here are a few ideas to set the tone for your next movie night:

Movies: Finding the perfect genre
Let’s get clear, going uber-romantic is not always the best idea. Funny is good, but you might want to avoid extreme gross-out humor. Action is always a good idea. The point is, you want to express a part of your personality to your significant other/potential significant other, but you don’t want to kill the mood or make things uncomfortable.
Watching a movie is a great way to spend time with your significant other, but not all movies are created equally. Something romantic, hilarious, or a little bit scary? Here are a few of our favorites for the perfect movie night date films to watch:
- Silver Linings Playbook
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- Bird Box
- The Graduate
- Alien
- Pitch Perfect
- Love, Simon
- Date Night
- Lion
- Cruel Intentions
- Sixth Sense
- Begin Again
- La La Land
- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
- Scream
- Sierra Borges is a Loser
Once you’ve got a movie picked out, it’s important to plan the rest of the evening as well.
Watching Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling sing, dance, and fall in love is always satisfying, but when it’s accompanied by some delicious José Olé Taquitos, it takes satisfaction to a whole new level.
Cooking your own snacks for the perfect date night movie is a great idea as well; Popcorn, potato chips, and spiced nuts are all delicious when they’re freshly homemade, and nachos any way you want ’em are an excellent choice
Don’t forget to include these essentials for a perfect movie night date:
- Stovetop popcorn
- Cocktails or mocktails
- Comfy pillows
- Something sweet, and something savory
- Candles
Whatever you choose to watch, make sure it’s something you will both enjoy. Movies were created to entertain us, make us laugh & cry, and draw us closer together on the couch.
