Film Intro Survey

1.  I honestly thought about this for a while and couldn't think of the first movie that made a strong impression on me.  Maybe Mars Attack when I was five and had nightmares for a week afterward.
2. My favorite genres are fantasy, gangster/crime, war and action/adventure.
3. My least favorite genres are romance, musical and silent.
4. My favorite movies are American History X, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Dark Knight, Moonrise Kingdom and City of God
5. I would say a good movie has a well written script, has lovable characters, keeps my on the edge of my seat, and has me thinking about the movie the rest of the day/the next day.
6. While I couldn't think of many movies that I straight up hated I thought The Avengers was totally overrated, The Boondock Saints II was terrible to the first one, and I thought Tron: Legacy was just bad.
7. Cheesy lines, characters I have a hard time bonding with and predictable endings.
8. Taritino and Nolan are my two favorite directors.
9. Edward Norton, Leonardo Dicaprio, Gary Oldman, Natalie Portman, Bill Murray are my favorite actors/actresses.
10. Casablanca, Pulp Fiction and Requiem for a Dream are all important films people should watch.
11. Casablanca and 12 Angry Men are my favorite old movies.
12. Moonrise Kingdom has been my favorite movie released in the past 2 years.  It was funny, quirky had great acting from some of my favorite actors and took me completely off guard.  I would recommend it to anyone.
13. The next movies in my queue include Apocalypse Now, The Royal Tennebuams, Kill Bill Vol. 2, Monsters University and The Great Gatsby
