I wanted to try this movie survey for no particular reason and just because I thought it was fun giving it a try. However, it took me longer then I'd thought it would. It was really difficult to keep everything more or less contained and there are simply too many good movies. Here we go!

A movie that no one would expect you to love: I've no idea what people's expectations are.
A movie that is a guilty pleasure: Maybe Imagine Me and You (very cheesy!) and Twilight but I always have a reason why I enjoy cheesy movies, so I don't really feel guilty or embarrassed.

Movie with the best soundtrack: Atonement, Anna Karenina, Pride and Prejudice, Hanna (the whole soundtrack was made by the Chemical Brothers!)
A movie that changed your opinion about something: Seeing Anna Karenina made me realize that you can't and should not blame yourself for the rest of your life if you made a (considerably big!) mistake. Even if you hurt many people with your deeds (especially yourself), you shouldn't jump in front of a train for heavens sake!!!
However, THIS is what learnt from Disney movies.
Your least favorite movie: I really didn't like American Pie.
Is anyone brave enough to accept this movie survey challenge? It's not as easy as it looks like!
"Underrated" as in "it didn't get the public recognition it deserved"? Many of my friends consider Big Fish "the last good" Tim Burton movie, which I'm inclined to believe, even though being not so familiar with his most recent work.
ReplyDeleteLeaving that out of account, it nevertheless got nominated for several awards in its year of publication and "Man of the Hour" is a Pearl Jam classic.
All in all, it's an awesome piece of art. Great storytelling has become so rare...
I definitely agree with you on the Pirates of the Caribbean quote !! I think captain Jack is simply hilarious :)
