I love movies, love going to the cinema, really love the coke slushies when you get there (especially if I remember to take a wee drop of bourbon with me!) also love collecting my favourite movies on DVD (am too frightened to add up how many I have), and love watching favourite old movies over again, especially with friends who may not have seen them.

Threesome, Dazed and Confused, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Plunkett and Mcleane, Much Ado About Nothing, High Fidelity, Monsoon Wedding

Name a movie that you can and do quote from.

Name a movie musical that you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs.
Dont really know the lyrics… but love 8 Femmes. and have t confess I know the lyrics to nearly every Disney cartoon ever… worked in a Disney Store part time for a few years while I was at uni :S

The Importance of Being Earnest, Amelie, Brannagh’s Hamlet, Grosse Point Blank, Before Sunrise/Before Sunset. Son in Law.
Name a movie that you own.
Transylvania 6500 🙂 how dodgy is that? Oh, and I also have Psycho Beach Party!!!
Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops.
You know I can’t really think of anyone impressive at the moment…. Can probably think of a few dodgy ones who ought not have bothered…. (might come back to it)
Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in? If so, what?
Original Starwars, Superman, The Serpent and the Rainbow, Top Gun, saw plenty of movies at the Capalaba drive in when I was a teenager… we used to think the FM transmitters were so high tech!!! 🙂
Ever made out in a movie?
Plenty of making out at the drive-in. .. I mean that’s what it’s for, but as for the cinema…??? No comment (blushes)
Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven’t yet gotten around to it.
Meant to see a lot of movies…. Thank you for Not Smoking, Va Savoir, Clockwork Orange, Christiane F, all the Godfathers, Garden State and I’m sure there’s lots of others.
Ever walked out of a movie?
Forrest Gump in Munich.. it was supposed to be in English with German subtitles, but when we got there, it was in German… we nearly lost it when (after sitting through the ridiculously long feather thing in the intro, Forrest’s opening line was… Hallo. mein name ist Forrest Gump and then muttered something which I assumed was about a box of pralines!!!
Name a movie that made you cry in the theater.
Crash… (the recent one, not the one with James Spader where people are getting off on crashing their cars!) when I thought the little girl had been shot.. I just thought of Angel and felt the tears welling… it was awful.
What’s the last movie you saw in the theater?
Becoming Jane… (wait for DVD… ) why do they throw americans in this very English roles. Anne Hathaway is fine, but as Jane Austen???
What’s your favorite/preferred genre of movie?
I tend to like cult/independent films and definitely enjoy the small fraction of foreign releases we manage to get here. Also like comedy films that are more witty, sarcastic or dark… not big on fart jokes etc.
What’s the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?
Grease … think i was about 5 maybe? I think I also went to see Blue Lagoon at the cinema (even though I must have been very young for it) and Footloose when I was a bit older.
What movie do you wish you had never seen?
Breaking the Waves (three hours of my life I’m never going to get back!). Donnie Darko (I dont get it.. the damn demonic bunny thing… meh!) Oh and that abomination Bewitched movie (how could they!!!).
What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed?
Team America – absolutely appalling
What is the scariest movie you’ve seen?
The Serpent and the Rainbow – they were burying people alive 😐
What is the funniest movie you’ve seen?
Mallrats – Where the hell did that come from ?!?
So when I saw this meme on Blogography, I had to fill it out and repost, even though I’m dead on my feet after working all night and have only just got home at 12.20am!!! :S
