Survey Time
Feb. 18th, 2003 10:37 pmFirst Movie you ever saw in the theatre: I don't honestly know. The forst one I remember clearly was Honey, I shrunk the kids
Fav movie as a kid: My childhood was mostly made up for cartoons, so probably Basil the Great Mouse Detective. Which I still love and got on DVD for my birthday...
Movie you have seen the most times: Uhhhh... I tend to go through phases, like CDs where I'll watch something continually to the point of making my family homicidal then won't watch it again for years, but one of my longstanding favourite repeat-viewing movies is probably Grosse Pointe Blank
Biggest Movie Star crush as a kid: Oh this is sad... I never crushed on movie stars as a kid. I watched TV too much to crush on movie stars. I think when I was very young I had a bit of a thing for Alan Cumming in Bernard and the Genie but on the most part I was more interested in watching Red Dwarf and feeding my at-the-time Rimmer crush. I don't think he counts as a movie star.
Fav 80's teen Movie: I was very small through most of the 80's. Most of my favourite teen movies happened in the 90's when I was, astoundingly, a teen. But if pushed I have a soft spot for Footloose.
Fav song from a movie: Stuck in the middle with you from Reservior Dogs
Fav Love/Romance Movie: Not keen on the big ole' epic romances... Rom-coms tend to appeal more so I'll say Blast for the Past, cause although it's cheesy it has mood-lifting qualities. Like comfort food for the brain.
Fav Horror Movie: I don't like being scared... I'm such a wuss. I'll say Sleepy Hollow because Tim Burton is a God.
Fav Drama: Looking at my videos I don't think I have one. Does The Crow count as a drama?
Fav Sci Fi movie: I think like most of the rest of the world the original Star wars Trilogy is pretty high up there, but Strange Days was a damned good movie and y'all know about my X-men fetish...
Fav Musical Movie: I usually try and catch My Fair Lady if it's on, and I'll still admit to being a Disney fan, though I do have Hughklahma on DVD... Uh, maybe Jesus Christ Superstar, that was good too.
Fav Comedy Movie: *urk* Too many to list. Hard Day's Night and Help! were always favourites as a kid (though maybe they should be in the musical section)... Bernard and the Genie, Blazing Saddles, Hot Shots 1&2... the list is way too long and encompases most of my video collection.
Fav Action/Adventure Movie: I actually rather like Swordfish... Despite the Hugh role, it's probably the kind of movie I would have ended up seeing and enjoying no matter who was in it.
Movie that Scared You as a Child: Honestly, Hellraiser still freaks me out now...
Movie that makes you cry everytime you see it: The Land Before Time (the original one)... the bit with the leaf and Littelfoot's mum and... *wibble*... never got over that.
Worst movie you ever saw: I'm thinking Vanishing Point is a serious contender there (sorry to any Viggo fans)... also "Clean, Shaven" and pretty much anything that ends up on C4's Cinema Extreme seasons...
Movie you walked out on in the theatre cause it was so bad: On the most part I only go and see movies I really rather like the sound of. But I did get dragged to see Pokemon 2 and Before and After, both of which were pretty close calls as far as wanting to gouge my brain out with a stick went.
Most sexual movie you ever saw (non porn): Probably Basic Instinct... do those "erotic dramas" on C5 count? Cause it's pretty fucking hard to avoid those...
Most disturbing movie you ever saw: Hellraiser for the sheer cringing ickyness, The Passion of Darkly Noon for just plain fucked uppedness and Reservoir Dogs for still enthusing about it's grittyness 3 months later-ness
Movie that supposedly sucks but you love it: Ah, probably The Chase. "That Pacific medical school truck appears to be spilling... cadavers all along the freeway. That's repugnant!" "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!"
Favourite actors: Hugh (big shock) Jackman, John Cusack, Ralph Feinnes... and a load of others that I've handily totally forgotten
Fav Actresses: Very few to be honest... I will admit to often not paying them the blindest bit of notice.
I'm duly ashamed. On the most part though I'm happy if they're not being really whiney in bad rom-coms
Fav Porn Star: You're supposed to remember their names...?
Favourite sex scene from a movie (non porn): Lord alive, not a damned clue. I can name my favourite fight scenes though, and I can tell you I snickered my way through Basic Instinct.
Movie you wanted to see the most as a child but were not allowed to: We were allowed to watch pretty much whatever the hell we wanted so long as we didn't stay up too late on school nights. Even the then VCR was free to record it to save for the weekend.
Sexiest movie star of all time (male): Whoever I happen to be crushing on at that moment in time.
Sexiest movie star of all time (female): I refer you back to the question on favourite actresses. John informs me, however, that his vote goes for "what's her name... the one with the fur bikini" gets his vote. I believe he means Raquel Welch in 1million years BC, but then he could have been watching something else entirely, especially if he spent too much time watching Granada...
Movie that could/might as well been written about your life: Urrrr... if I hang out with Charlie too much I foten start feeling like it's Clueless...
Favourite villain in a movie: Top Dollar in The Crow, cause he has a cool evil voice. John Cleese in Eric the Viking cause you gotta' love a megolomaniac. Lots of other generic evil bad guys, usually cause they look real nice ;)
Last movie you saw on TV/rented: saw on TV - Vanishing Point... well, part of it anyway. Rented: I've totally forgotten, it was a little while ago.
Last movie you saw in theatre: Chicago
Yeech, even with a broadband connection trailers take forever to load from apple...

Must... flip... frame... by... frame...
