The Movie Meme
1) Total number of films I own on DVD/video: Personally? Counting all the tv episodes taped onto old VHS? The sets of movies counted together or seperately? The anime series? Um...less than 2000, more than a hundred and fifty.
2) The last film I bought: The Apple. 70's disco musicals about the Bible set in the record industry and filmed in Germany under the title "Rock Star USA"...what's not to love? But I also bought a DVD copy of Peyton Place at the same time. *scandal!*
3) The last film I watched:
In the cinema: Sin City *purrrrrrr*
On TV: Cabaret (two ladies...unt I'm the only man, yah)
DVD: The French Lieutenant's Woman (boring as all hell)
4) Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me:
1. Lawrence of Arabia. But I don't watch it a lot. I find it weirdly painful to watch in that way that I now cannot stand to watch FMA. It hurts once you know the ending. Still so beautiful though.
2. Casablanca. No joke, I watch this constantly. I heart Louis. Is it weird to compare this to anime too, and call him my Nicholas D Wolfwood?
3. Steel Magnolias. The only chick movie I openly love and adore. I quote with friends and my brother like a freak. We even made him say "Her mother and I do!" in a shout when he had to give my sister away at her wedding.
4. The Women. Whenever it's on, I must watch. I heart bitchiness when it's clever. And the 1930's-era dialogue that doesn't come across as offensive now. Nope. Not at all. Now go stretch out in bed like a Swastika.
5. Pirates of the Caribbean. Well it's just my current obsession.
Finally, tag five people to do this meme:
I'm not going to tag anybody, but anyone who wants to respond, can. I would be interested. :)

Me too! It's just brilliant.
Have I ever rambled on to you my theory that Geoffrey Rush is Claude Rains reincarnated?
No...but now that you say it, I can totally see it *g*
