Movie Meme

Got this from JoJo's blog.  Thought I'd work on it while waiting for the turkey to cook.  I watch way too much television and movies.  Oh well, there are worse bad habits.  Here goes!

*Favourite FilmDr. Strangelove - Dark comedy with Peter Sellers in three roles.  Absolutely LOVE it.
*Least Favourite Film: Can't really pick just one as there are so many.  Pretty much any frat boy movie or chick flick you can think of.  Not into those at all.

*Favourite ComedyMonty Python & The Holy Grail - I've memorized lines from this movie as I am a Monty Python fanatic.
*Favourite DramaThe Life of David Gale

*Favourite ActionRaiders of the Lost Ark

*Favourite Horror/Suspense:  The Shining - No one does crazy like Jack Nicholson.  lol

*Favourite ThrillerSaw I & II  - the rest of the series became just gross
*Favourite Foreign Film: Das Boot & The Seven Samurai - sorry, can't pick one over the other as I love both.

*Favourite Kid's Movie: The Wizard of Oz

*Favourite Love Story: Ghost

*Favourite Chick FlickOkay, okay, I did like Steel Magnolias.  lol

*Favourite Play Adaptation: Jesus Christ Superstar
*Film That Is Your Guilty PleasureBill & Ted's Excellent Adventure

*Film That Made You Cry The HardestTerms of Endearment
*Film You Don't Want To Watch AgainTerms of Endearment - great movie but I can't stand the crying I end up doing at the end.
*Movie With Your Favourite ActressStir of Echos (Kathryn Erbe)
*Movie With Your Favourite ActorFull Metal Jacket (Vincent D'Onofrio)

*Movie You Wish You Could Live InAny Star Trek movie - love that future
*Movie That Inspires You: Invictus

*Movie(s) With Your Favourite Soundtrack:  The Big Chill
*Movie With The Most Beautiful SceneryHoward's End/Remains of the Day - anything based in England really.  
*Movie You Are Embarrassed To Say You Like: Talladega Nights (I generally don't care for Will Farrell but this movie made me laugh)

*Movie With Your Favourite Villain: Silence of the Lambs (Hannibal Lecter still gives me nightmares)

*Movie With Your Favourite Superhero Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade - I'm taking this from JoJo's lead with Luke Skywalker.  Indiana Jones is my superhero.  ;-)


*First Movie You Ever Remember WatchingMary Poppins - with my mom, aunt and two cousins.  Made me appreciate being an only child when I got my own book and my cousins had to share. They fought over the book while I sat reading mine on the way home.  Ever since then, I told my mother to scratch the idea of a brother or sister - especially not a sister.  lol  
*Last Movie You WatchedFair Game (Not great, not horrible)

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans.  Hope you all have a great day!

Just Full Metal Jacket, Val.

To be honest I've only seen a few of his movies. Full Metal Jacket, Men In Black, Feeling Minnesota, Steal This Movie, The Player, Ed Wood, JFK, The Whole Wide World, Strange Days and Guy.

I know he's done so much more and I have a lot of them on my Netflix list. They may make my list of movies once I see them.
