What is your favorite movie and why


Recommended Posts

The Princess Bride. It has everything in it. "Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles... "

and Andre the Giant

Goodfellas...Excellent acting, cinematography, sound, lighting, soundtrack, writing, editing...you get the picture.

This is, in my opinion, the best shooting ever

Only thing I hate about the movie is that I get very hungry while watching

I can't say ... it's the answer to the password reset on my kids DSi's that keeps them from going on the internet.

I allow them internet access, but only under my supervision.

I am going to expose your answer for the world to see!!!

There is no way I could just choose one favorite movie, just as I could not choose a favorite band. However, I can put almost any Tarantino movie at the top of my list. Death Proof was awesome! Dusk til Dawn. The original Dawn of the Dead as someone posted above me was great but I also love the new one. Comedy is one of my favorite genres second only to Horror. Zombieland was great cuz it combined those two. Plus, Bill Murray:) Then of course there is always Star Wars which fits in neither category but is great none the less.

As some have mentioned above me, I don't really have a single favourite movie. I have favourite movies in various genres, subgenres, and (in the case of horror) sub-subgenres. But no definitve favourite.

General Horror: Probably gonna have to go with "A Tale of Two Sisters"

Asian Horror: Again, "A Tale of Two Sisters". (Seriously, WATCH THIS FILM) Also, "Chakushin Ari" and "Audition".

Zombie: Hmm... Gonna go old school and say "Night of the Living Dead" and "Dawn of the Dead". ("Zombieland" a close runner-up)

"Infected" Horror: "28 Days Later"

Vampire: "The Hamiltons" and "Let the Right One In"

Classic Horror: "Dracula" (Bela Lugosi was HAWT) and "The Wicker Man" (before Nicholas Cage completely destroyed it.)

Monster: "The Host" and "Cloverfield" (Yeah, yeah... I loved "Cloverfield". Heh.)

Pure Gore/Torture: "Gurotesuku" and "Guinea Pig: Flower of Flesh and Blood" (WARNING: Watch these at your own discretion. These are both banned in several countries and have actually been mistaken for real snuff films. They are, however, purely fictional.)

As you can tell, I'm a bit of a horror nut... Heh.

Comedy: "Fanboys" and "Clerks".

Fantasy: "The Lord of the Rings"

Sci-Fi: A bit of a toughy... I really love "Star Wars". And the new "Star Trek" was amazing.

Sappy Romance: "Memoirs of a Geisha" and "Scott Pilgrim" (not really sappy, but it was definitely romantic. I want a guy to fight seven deadly exes for me.)

Sorry for the long list. Its just so damned hard to narrow it down. Heh.

    • So I just got back from Happy Endings and I saw @DJ Saintthere.  He told me that after I got kicked out of High Dive that later on Mike also attacked him, and Mike and his crew were also kicked out.  Then we talked about the scene and possible upcoming gigs.  I hope something comes his way soon, as well as mine too.  With the current economy I think more club owners will be hungry to try more things like goth/industrial/other alternative nights.  I've also heard that GenZ isn't online dating and is actually going out into the world to meet people which may also help business owners, though they aren't drinking which doesn't really help much.  I think more places are going to need to start serving food and mocktails to make up the difference. Then Mike showed up at Happy Endings which I thought was highly likely because I hadn't seen him there in a while, and @DJ Aaron Hingst,@elektrosonik, and his husband Tim were all there too.  He did something else I wasn't expecting...  Which was he actually shook my hand and said it was good to see me, which caught me a little off guard.  He didn't apologize for anything but it's a start I think.  I told him I was sorry to hear about @djpleasurekitten's passing (which I was/am.  Despite the rift that ended up existing between us we were friends at one point.) So maybe he's moving on finally?  If so then I'm glad.  I'm still not sure if I'll ever go back, but it is at least a start, and it's nice to actually see he's trying to bury the hatchet in something other than my skull.
    • Stargate Universe, which everyone said sucked but I'm actually enjoying it? Like there are less jokes, but lots of dark humor, and people might actually die rather than have 10ft thick plot armor?  Yes please more of this!
    • Failbook is blocked so I can't see any of the info. "Oh you don't need to login to view!" No, you don't understand...  This is my /etc/hosts file:   # Block Meta IPv6 fe80::1%lo0 facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 www.login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.connect.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 www.connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 apps.facebook.com12 # Block Meta IPv4 0.0.0.0 facebook.com ~~~~~ A METRIC FUCKTON OF OTHER FB DOMAINS ~~~~~ 0.0.0.0 zh-tw.facebook.com I had to edit it and cut off many lines because it's 2171 lines long and the overwhelming majority is just Facebook domains. Those IPs for v4 and v6 mean they lead to the HTTP equivalent of /dev/null X/Twitter is blocked too.  I need to block Alphabet/Google and Microsoft as well, but they're actually useful for certain things (damn you YouTube and GitHub!)
