1. Name a movie that you have seen more than 10 times. Beauty and the Beast (watched it compulsively as a kid; still rewatch it at twenty-one.)
2. Name a movie that you've seen multiple times in the theater. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (seen twice. I'm poor.)
3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a movie. Johnny Depp, Kate Winslet, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Angelina Jolie.
4. Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a movie. Tom Cruise. Various and sundry singers using the movie as a star vehicle (ex: Crossroads, Glitter, From Justin to Kelly, etc.)
5. Name a movie that you can and do quote from. The Princess Bride
6. Name a movie musical that you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs. The Phantom of the Opera
7. Name a movie that have been known to sing along with. If it's a musical, chances are good I'll sing along.
8. Name a movie that you would recommend everyone see. Finding Neverland
9. Name a movie that you own. Serenity
10. Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops. Dude, I barely know the spelling of most actors' names, let alone their career history.
11. Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in? Nope
12. Ever made out in a movie? No, and if my date tried it, I would get huffy. If I've shelled out money for a movie, it's one I actually want to see, and seeing it means paying attention.
13. Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven't yet gotten around to it. Pan's Labyrinth
14. Ever walked out of a movie? No. I'm mostly very picky about what I see at the theater. The only times the movie was bad, it was of the so-bad-it's good variety. I have, however, paused tapes/DVDs and never gone back to them. See also the point about me being cheap. Those eight bucks mean I will sit through it, dammit, if only to have something to bitch about afterward.
15. Name a movie that made you cry in the theater. Serenity (and for an embarassing example, Titanic. I was thirteen. Bite me.)
16. Popcorn? Tasty. Also good for sharing with friends or date.
17. How often do go to the movies (as opposed to renting them or watching them at home)? As of late? Next to never. Before, it varied.
18. What's the last movie you saw in the theater? My memory is not that good.
19. What's your favorite/preferred genre of movie? Don't have one. My favorites are all over the place.
20. What's the first movie you remember seeing in the theater? One Hundred and One Dalmatians - Live Action version.
21. What movie do you wish you had never seen? None that I can think of.
22. What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed? Does watching hentai with friends and making fun of it while drunk count? If so, pencil in La Blue Girl. ...Which would, under different circumstances, have been a good answer to the previous question.
23. What is the scariest movie you've seen? Dark Water - Japanese Version. What *is* it about Japanese horror?
24. What is the funniest movie you've seen? Lemme get back to you on that...
