A bit about movies........................


What is your favourite movie?
How often do you watch movies?
Do you prefer a particular type of movie, ie: comedy, drama, thriller,si fi, or maybe you don't care what type of movie you watch as long as you find it interesting and can hold your attention.
Have you ever walked out on a movie at the cinema? I have a number of years back in fact so long ago I can't remember when but I do remember the movie it was Miami Vice http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0430357/
Now I loved the tv show but the movie sucked thankfully I didn't pay to see it I had won tickets to see it.


As for favourite movies well I don't have a favourite I have a number of movies that I really liked such as the Die Hard movies http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095016/


I also like the Death Wish movies http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071402/
I don't watch movies very often I just don't seem to have the time to watch a movie uniterupted.  I record movies from Foxtel and will often watch a movie over a few days. http://www.foxtel.com.au/default.htm

  1. I, like you, find it hard to have the two hour uninterrupted stretch to just sit and watch a movie, but every now and then, it is nice.

  4. I don't have a favorite genre but I probably tend to watch more comedies than anything else. Most of the new stuff is rather forgettable.

  5. I wanted to walk out on a movie several years ago because of the terrible language. Now it is so common and I still hate it!

    I love movies, but usually wait until they come out on DVD as my husband doesn't like to go to the movies. He is supposed to take me today because it is raining cats and dogs here!

  7. We will rent some DVD's about once a month or so. We don't go to the theaters very often due to the high cost but we do go once or twice a year.

    My favorite movie is the Shawshank Redemption. But I do love the Die Hard movies.
