Regarding grammar: always use an apostrophe to show a possessive, except
when the subject is "it." So really, kenji's is right. The only way you
could do that without an apostrophe, legally, is if you developed a classic
split personality such that one of your selves was an inanimate object and
it was this object that you believed had a list of movies for jennifer;
then you could say "its list of movies for jennifer." How's -that- for
pedantic?
