Way back in the days of Sega Genesis my wife would come and play with me and our sons. She liked Streets of Rage very much. Mario Kart was also a favorite (as "anyone" can win there). Since then it has mostly been Solitare.
As for movies I often get to hear that I am lucky to have a wife that likes B-action movies and especially karate movies. I am not the biggest fan of those kinds of movies though.
