7 Movie Questions

So in between working on the list and writing a review for The Losers and another Why X Should Be in Every Movie entry so that I had some stand-up stuff before said list takes over this space completely, I was tagged by Univarn to do another one of these memes. That's fine, I enjoy them. This one was started by Movienut14. It's 7 movies questions. So here goes:

1) What was you first movie-going experience?

The first time I went to the theater was to see Tomorrow Never Dies. I've probably told this story before but I was deathly scared of blood for the longest time and so therefore had never seen an action movie before. I was at my aunt's one time and Goldeneye was playing in the background and I watched it nervously being totally excited by it but ready to turn away quickly at any sight of blood and to my pleasure none ever came. It was my birthday a couple weeks later and me and some friends decided to rent a movie so I suggested Goldeneye. Needless to say we loved it and my love of shoot-outs and explosions was born and my fear of blood evaporated. Turns out, several weeks later, Tomorrow Never Dies was opening at the local theater and we just needed to see it right away and we did and that was my first time at the theater.

2) How many DVDs do you own?

DVD Aficionado tells me I own 1212 but I know it's more than that because some are stand-up comedy DVDs that aren't on that site and some are box sets which are counted as one but you know, have like 4 or 5 movies in them, so it's more like 1250 I'd guess.

3) What is your guilty pleasure movie?

I have a lot of them because, as someone told me and as I am very aware of, I am a lot easier a critic than some of my fellow bloggers who just aren't as easy to impress. What can I saw, I'm just as much a movie fan as I am film scholar. So anyway, some that I would pick would be Hollywood Homicide, The Honeymooners, The Wicker Man remake and so on. But really, no pleasures should be guilty.

4) You have compiled a list of your top 100 movies. Which movies didn't make the cut?

I really have no good answer to this because too many wouldn't make the cut.

5) Which movie(s) do you compulsively watch over and over again?

Adaptation, Commando, FUBAR, Police Squad (that's TV I know), you know, fun ones.

6) Classic(s) you're embarrassed to admit you haven't seen yet?

Okay, let the judgement be passed. I've never seen The Godfather Part 2. I own the box set and have seen the other two but that one has just eluded me thus far.

7) What movie posters do you have hanging on your wall?

La Dolce Vita, Boogie Nights, The Godfather, The Dark Knight, Casino
