Who is your favorite movie character?

This is just a cruel joke.  How can someone pick just one character?  Characters are my thing.  They are my life in many ways.  I love movies.  I love television.  I love books. How can I pick just one movie character?  And then as I was looking around my bedroom, I realized I do have an ultimate favorite movie character.  He also doubles as a comic character, well superhero character as I have not had time to read my Groot comicbook yet.  Wow, I really thought I was going to have a better lead in than that to let you know I AM GROOT!!!!

What is the most underrated movie?

I feel in many ways there are so many movies that fall into this category.  Sometimes I even feel as if some of my guilty pleasure films fall into this category.  There are films out there though that truly touch us that yet so few people have ever heard of for some reason.  The good thing about video movie stores is that they let us peruse the store and allow us to rent films we would otherwise never see.  This is not because the films are all trash and were not released in theaters, but because these films are the ones that arrive at populated theaters and leave after a week.  No one is seeing these films because they don’t get enough advertisement, but that does not mean they aren’t amazing in their own right.  The Fall is one of those films for me.  A treasure I found while working at Blockbuster.  My friend watched the film first and insisted I needed to watch it as as well.  I’m so glad I listened.

What is the most overrated movie?

I oddly enough remember watching the following film in high school.  I kept hearing good things about the movie and thinking there is no way I will dislike this film.  The truth is not only did I not like it, but I found myself believing it was beyond overrated after seeing it on many people’s best films of all time lists.  While I would never include the following film on a  list like that for myself, far be it from me to deny others their love of the film.  And who knows, maybe I am just not a gladiator film girl because I did not care for 300 either.  However, something tells me with all that praise and all that male friends I have that love this particular film, I’m opening up to comments on why Gladiator is not overrated.

Who is your favorite actress?

Once again I find myself in debate mode.  There are so many talented actresses in the world that it is hard to choose an actual favorite.  I find myself in the same dilemma as I did with choosing a favorite actor.  In many ways I found myself going through phases with who my favorite actress was once upon a time too.  In high school I watched a lot of films the start Gwyneth Paltrow, Nicole Kidman, and Renee Zellweger.  Over the years I have continued to watch their films and added Kate Winslet to a list of stars whose films I have always enjoyed.  However, for almost a whole decade now I have enjoyed the films of an actress who is slightly younger than me.  An actress who has fought zombies, managed to get through high school rumors, and has amazing on-screen chemistry with Ryan Gosling.

Who is your favorite actor?

This is such a loaded question for me.  I don’t know that I have an overall favorite actor.  This has changed over the years many times.  In high school I would say I enjoyed films from what I affectionately call the Brit Bunch.  Continue reading “Who is your favorite actor?”

What is the last movie you saw in theaters?

I will admit two things before I go into the answer for the day.  I probably would not have seen this movie without Moviepass.  If it weren’t for going to three doctor’s appointments in one day, thus having the day off, I probably would not have the opportunity to go see this movie.  And a third reason I saw the film was a theater near me was FINALLY playing the film.  Continue reading “What is the last movie you saw in theaters?”

Who is your favorite movie villain?

I should start by saying that today’s question on the original challenge was not a question I could answer ultimately.  There are not any movies that I used to love that I now hate.  There is not a film that I actually would go as far to say that I hate.  So I decided to write about my favorite movie villain today.  This is a much harder question to answer somehow.  I truly believe that a good hero needs a good villain.  The problem is nine times out of ten I always find myself loving the villain of most films.  Continue reading “Who is your favorite movie villain?”

What is your favorite animated movie?

I can show you the world.  Shining, shimmering, splendid!  If you don’t know those lyrics, I do not know that we can be friends.  I’m joking of course, kind of, but anyone who has not seen Aladdin should do themselves a favor and go find it right now to watch.  I’ll wait until you’ve done so to finish typing.  Continue reading “What is your favorite animated movie?”

What is your favorite movie from childhood?

Growing up in the late eighties and early nineties was the best childhood that anyone could have wanted.  I’m clearly beyond biased in this scenario, but four of the greatest superheros were create in 1984, also the year I was born.  Coincidence?  Yes, but I want to say no here and reap in the greatness that became known around the world as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  And who wouldn’t?  Continue reading “What is your favorite movie from childhood?”

What is a movie that makes you sad?

What’s a challenge if we do not talk about the movie that makes us sad after the one that makes us happy?  Some might say a good one, but there is only one movie that without fail that always makes me cry.  Others come close, but nothing ever compares to My Girl.
