Well, I have not seen the first film, so everything in here was new to me. I think if you are new to the idea, it is worth watching. I don't think I can get rid of items at the pace of one or two a day. I think cleaning out a closet or room here and there will do wonders. My family and I stopped exchanging gifts years ago (the adults stopped-kids still get toys) and it has been such a relief of 1) not having to think of what to get people and 2) trying to figure out what to do with the gifts I got but didn't really want.
