1. Name a movie that you have seen more than 10 times.
'The Sandlot' - my brother watched this Every. Single. Day. for months when he was little, before moving on to 'Jurassic Park'. By choice? Let's say... 'Bridget Jones' Diary'.
2. Name a movie that you've seen multiple times in the theater.
Most recently, 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest'.
3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a movie.
Hmm... currently, I'll say Daniel Craig.
4. Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a movie.
Like everyone else, I'll go with Tom Cruise. Though Crazy Mel is up there - 'Braveheart' used to be one of my favorites, but now I can't watch parts without wincing at the signs of things to come. :(
5. Name a movie that you can quote from.
'Casablanca' :p
6. Name a movie musical that you know all the lyrics to all the songs.
'Evita'
7. Name a movie that you have been known to sing along with.
See above. Also 'Phantom of the Opera' (which, honestly, is all it's really good for on the rewatch).
8. Name a movie that you would recommend everyone see.
I'd like to say 'Roman Holiday', which is my favorite movie. But I wouldn't recommend it to someone if I didn't think they'd like it, because I love it too much for someone I like to dislike it. If that makes sense. :p
9. Name a movie that you own.
Last one I bought - 'Elizabeth'. I recently noticed I have more TV on DVDs than movies, but my videos equal things out.
10. Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops.
Can't think of one at the moment.
11. Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in? If so, what?
Yes, we have a great drive-in nearby. The last one was a double feature of 'Fantastic Four' and 'Bad News Bears' (so not my choice).
12. Ever made out in a movie?
Heh, no.
13. Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven't gotten around to it.
'Kill Bill', both parts.
14. Ever walked out of a movie?
No.
15. Name a movie that made you cry in the theater.
I'll say 'Romeo and Juliet', as this led to a memorable (and laughable) moment.
16. Popcorn?
I'll pick off someone else's, if offered, but prefer candy.
17. How often do you go to the movies (as opposed to renting them or watching them at home)?
When there's something I really want to see, or my mother is bored on a weekend afternoon.
18. What's the last movie you saw in the theater?
'Night at the Museum', at the $2.50 theater.
19. What's your favorite/preferred genre of movie?
Epics, historical/costume pieces, and/or well-done romantic comedies
20. What's the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?
'101 Dalmatians'
21. What movie do you wish you had never seen?
'The Relic' - watched it with friends one Halloween, and it was so stupid, we turned it off 2/3rds of the way through.
22. What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed?
'Brazil', perhaps.
23. What is the scariest movie you've seen?
I try not to watch too many scary movies. Maybe 'The Ring'?
24. What is the funniest movie you've seen?
I laughed until I thought I was going to puke the first time I watched 'The Pink Panther'. The zebra was what did me in.
Bonus question:
25. Name a movie you didn't expect to like, and you did.
The biggest, best example? 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. Based on a Disney theme park ride, and the teaser trailer was LAME. I went to Italy for the summer, was cut off from TV and movies, and was totally surprised when the report from the States was that it ROXed.
