dreamflowertaken from I don't know how many other people on my flist, because I just couldn't resist...
Name a movie that you have seen more than 10 times: The three LotR movies, The Wizard of Oz, The Quiet Man; Oklahoma, Camelot, The Santa Clause; Twister (a fave of the DH’s, so I watch it when he does); there are a lot more if you count only bits and pieces, and not the entire movie
Name a movie that you've seen multiple times in the theater: The three LotR movies, Fantasia (the original, I saw in the fifties when I was little, and then again each time it was re-released)--they are the only ones I’ve deliberately seen more than once at the theater. (However, if you count by *accident*, sort of, there was The Ghost and Mr. Chicken…)
Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a movie: Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, Robin Williams, Judy Dench, Whoopi Goldberg, Cate Blanchett, Ian McKellan, maybe a few others
Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a movie: Kirstie Alley, Leonardo di Caprio, Adam Sandler, Jim Carrey
Name a movie that you can do quotes from: The three LotR movies, The Wizard of Oz, The Quiet Man, several others
Name a movie musical that you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs: The Wizard of Oz, Oklahoma, Grease, Camelot, 1776, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Sound of Music, most Disney movies
Name a movie that you have been known to sing along with: Almost any musical that I’ve seen more than once, LOL!
Name a movie that you would recommend everyone see: Enchanted
Name a movie that you own: The three LotR movies, natch. We own a lot of others, though…
Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting skills: Whoopi Goldberg, Will Smith, Reba McIntyre
Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in? If so, what?: Oh yes! Quite a few! When I was a kid, that was the cheapest way to take a family to the movies. I saw an awful lot of movies at the drive-ins. I think the original Absent-Minded Professor is the most memorable. It was the first and only time I ever saw my Daddy laugh that much or that hard at anything.
Ever made out in a movie?: No
Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven't yet got around to it: Narnia: Prince Caspian
Ever walked out of a movie?: No.
Name a movie that made you cry in the theater: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Return of the King--those are the *ONLY* movies to make me cry in the theater, though some other movies have made me tear up a little. I didn’t even cry at Love Story, even though all my friends were bawling, same for Romeo and Juliet--the Zeferelli version. (Yes, I am that old.)
Popcorn?: Yes
How often do you go to the movies (as opposed to renting them or watching them at home)?: 3 to 5 times a year--depends on how many good movies are made that year, and whether we have the time and money while they are still playing in the theaters.
What's the last movie you saw in the theater?: The Spiderwick Chronicles
What's your favorite/preferred genre of movie?: Musicals, Animated, or Fantasy/Sci Fi. I also love Comedies. I am not fond of what’s usually called “chick flicks” or straight romances.
What's the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?: Disney’s Sleeping Beauty
What movie do you wish you had never seen?: How the Grinch Stole Christmas--that should never have been attempted in live action.
What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed?: Evolution
What is the scariest movie you've seen?: I don’t watch scary movies. I did go with some friends to a “green blood festival” at a drive-in one time, but they weren’t very scary, actually.
What is the funniest movie you've seen?: Oh, good heavens! There are some howlers out there! It’s really hard to choose just one comedy as the funniest ever. I usually laugh myself sick at Evolution or Jumpin’ Jack Flash or Police Academy, but I wouldn’t say they are the funniest--they are just the first to jump to mind right now…
