Favorite Documentary
I want to watch more documentaries, but of the few I have seen, Planet Earth (2006) was one that really impressed me. II've always loved animals and grew up watching Animal Planet, so the nerd in me loves nature programs. I also have a bad case of wanderlust, and seeing the amazing places that exist on our blue marble only appeals to that. But back to the documentary, hearing and seeing about new animals is something that genuinely interests me, especially deep ocean stuff. It's not a one-shot documentary though, so if you're interested, give yourself a couple of hours or a few days to watch it all!
Favorite Animation
This one asks too much. Animation, specifically anime (Japanese animation) has been a monumental force in my life. Some of my favorites are Sailor Moon, Dragonball, Rurouni Kenshin, Tenchi Muyo, Escaflowne, Magic Knight Rayearth, Card Captor Sakura, Full Metal Alchemist, Fruits Basket, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Inuyasha, Naruto, Code Geass, Golden Boy, Kite, X, Tsubasa, FLCL, Cowboy Bebop, Soul Eater, Deathnote, Ranma 1/2, The Girl Who Jumped Through Time, anything Ghibli and the list goes on. Then there are the animations that hold a special place in my heart that everyone my age grew up with: all the Disney classics, straight to VHS stuff from Universal, and the Pixar collection that started in the late 90's. I don't need to name titles, I know you all thought of a few anyways.
That One Awesome Movie Idea That Still Hasn't Been Done Yet
Vampire Crossover Movies. That's right. Everyone says 'blah blah blah Blade would kill Edward in a second' and stuff like that. Well! I say, there should be a movie that crossovers vampires from popular vamp films, gives some sort of plot that pits them against each other, and watch the bloodbath! To make it even more interesting, the vampires should be allowed to retain whatever powers/special abilities that their original movies dictate. It's not going to be that easy to kill Edward if he can read other vamp's minds to predict their moves or just kill them while they sleep during the day. Ohohohohoho!!
The Most Hilarious Movie You've Ever Seen
Maybe it's not the funniest movie of all time, but in recent memory, I can't remember laughing harder or more often than I did while watching The Hangover (2009). I had just come back from Japan and only knew the premise when I walked in so everything was unexpected. Off the wall crazy, wtf moments all over this film. And when you see it with friends who appreciate the same kind of humor, the funnier it is. I saw the second one as well and although it was the same exact plot, it was still funny, but this time a little expected. A Movie That You Love But Everyone Else Hates
The Twilight Saga (2008-2012) Yup! If you know me at all, you'd know it was going to be in this list somewhere! I love the books AND the movies which is not something even all Twilight fans can agree on. Although some better acting would have been nice, I'm used to the actors themselves and can't picture anyone else playing their characters. I have no problem suspending belief and accepting stories as they're given to me, so that was not a factor like it was to many skeptics or die-hard vampire lore fans. Basically, I love the movies for what they are: the live-action version of my favorite sappy romance novel series. Problem?
