Movie Meme

Movie Meme

 

Found this Cyn’s and Dawn’s blogs, who found it at Paul's blog:   Aurora Walking Vacation...

1. Name a movie that you have seen more than 10 times.  10 times?  Hmm..  Perhaps, Star Wars, Dirty Dancing, Moonstruck, Ghost…  I’m sorry, I don’t remember if it was 10; never really counted..

2. Name a movie that you've seen multiple times in the theater.  I don’t think I’ve ever done that…unless it was a Benji movie when I was younger. 

3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a movie. Hmm..  I like funny people, like Robin Williams, Will Ferrell..but I like serious ones too.  Jack Nicholson—eeek---his eyes freak me out.  I’d rather see Leo Dicaprio, Colin Firth or Nicholas Cage..Patrick Swayze, Hugh Grant. I hate it when actors try and switch roles from comical to serious..  It confuses the hell out of me. 

       

4. Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a movie. If a movie looks good, and I hear good reviews, I’ll see it.  Tom Cruise however gives me the heebie jeebies. 

5. Name a movie that you can and do quote from.  Dirty Dancing, Ghost, To Wong Foo: Julie Newmar With Love, Moonstruck, Bridget Jones’ Diary.. 

6. Name a movie musical that you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs. Muriel’s Wedding (I know my ABBA), My Fair Lady (of course!). 

     

7. Name a movie that you have been known to sing along with. If I know the song, I’ll sing it. 

8. Name a movie that you would recommend everyone see. The Color Purple. 

9. Name a movie that you own. Just one?  Umm… Okay…  I own To Wong Foo To Julie Newmar, With Love.  I love seeing Patrick in drag. 

10. Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops.  Other than Cher, may be Mark Wahlberg. 

11. Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in? If so, what? Yes.  It was the only time my parents took us to the movies as a family.

12. Ever made out in a movie? Sadly, I don’t think I ever did that. 

13. Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven’t yet gotten around to it. I want to see the whole entire movie of Love Actually.  Grrrr… 

14. Ever walked out of a movie? No, never, but I was quite tempted to walk out of the movie Planet Of The Apes.  I hated that movie!!  May be it was because the place was full, and we had to sit on the second row?  Horny apes are not pretty!  I remember my father driving out of the drive in during the beginning of High Anxiety with Gene Wilder.  According to my parents it was too dirty.  It was pretty embarrassing leaving the drive in.  I hid in the backseat. 

15. Name a movie that made you cry in the theater. Last movie was The Nativity.  I saw it on Christmas Day, and it was very touching. 

16. Popcorn? Yes.  If the movie is really boring, I can always concentrate on getting the corn kernels out of my teeth.

17. How often do you go to the movies (as opposed to renting them or watching them at home)? Not as often as I would like.  When hubby and I go out, we usually go out for dinner and a movie.    

18. What’s the last movie you saw in the theater? Number 23.  I don’t recommend it. 

19. What’s your favorite/preferred genre of movie? Comedy, but I like suspense, drama, & horror—sometimes. 

20. What’s the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?  Sleeping Beauty.  I was afraid of the witch.  I would run and hide in the bathroom of the theatre whenever she came on screen.

21. What movie do you wish you had never seen? Texas Chainsaw Masacre. 

22. What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed? George of the Jungle. 

23. What is the scariest movie you've seen? Silence of the Lambs. 

24. What is the funniest movie you've seen? Gee..  So many funny ones..  For some reason, I remember watching SomethingAbout Mary at the movies, and I could not stop laughing in the theatre.  I had the same experience with George of the Jungle.

Oh yeah, I love The Color Purple. And I forgot about Marky Mark Wahlberg. I'm trying to imagine how High Anxiety could be "too dirty"--it was really funny. I've never seen Silence of the Lambs or Texas Chainsaw...I can't handle that stuff!

This was a fun meme!--Cin
