stealing idea from :iconradioactivemongoose: because I'm a whore like that. And I know you all care.
AND NOW YOU CAN JUDGE ME ON MY MOVIE CHOICES
YAAAAAY

10. HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE

Does this really need any explanation? Beautiful animation, storyline, EVERYTHING. I love it.

9. THE SOUND OF MUSIC

My favorite musical-movie adaptation. I love lots of others too (Cabaret, Rocky Horror, Grease), but this one is just classic. I never get tired of it. Julie Andrews is perfection and Christopher Plummer is primo eye-candy. Fabulous songs, clothing, Austrian landscapes, and the scene where they're hiding from Nazis is totally terrifying (+1 for alliteration) IN A GOOD WAY.

8. KISS KISS BANG BANG

ROBERT DOWNEY JR. This is a hilarious, sexy, clever movie. Robert Downey Jr. is amazing in everything he is, but this one is just perfection in every way. I enjoy the narration especially.

7. THE PAINTED VEIL

Probably one of the best book adaptations I've ever seen. I'm a bad kid and read the book after I'd seen the movie, but tbh I didn't even want to see this movie to begin with, but my mom dragged me there and I ended up loving it. Of course. haha. Every actor is absolutely perfect for thier roles, especially Edward Norton (duh) and Toby Jones. Also, soundtrack is beautiful. mmm pianos.

6. CLUE

I love this movie SO HARD. Tim Curry is fan-fucking-tastic, and everthing about this movie is absolutely hilarious. Also, the maid's cleavage? Beautiful. If you're into that sort of thing.

5. FIGHT CLUB

I don't really know what to say about this one. Ok I do. EYE-CANDY EYE-CANDY EYE-CANDY. Or if you don't want to be so shallow, crazy intelligent story (thanks, Chuck Palahniuk, speaking of, I haven't read the book. oops.), wonderful cast, one of the greatest ending scenes (imo) of all time, and fighting!!

4. SHAUN OF THE DEAD

First off, anything that Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright does is genius. Hilarious, hilarious genius. Shaun of the Dead is mad adorable and takes you through a roller-coaster of emotions (if you're me) IN A GOOD WAY. P.S. Zombies!!

3. WATCHMEN

I really really loved this movie. The cheesiness, incredibly inappropiate music (oh hay Hallelujah), overuse of slo-mo, and stupid gore. I LOVED IT. I DON'T EVEN CARE. All the actors were sexy fabulous (see above). HEY I EVEN FORGIVE YOU, MALIN. BECAUSE THE HOTNESS OF THE ~BOYS~ MADE UP FOR YOU. Yeah, there aren't too many intelligent thoughts on this, because it wasn't the most intelligent. It was just a very entertaining, good (imo. again.) adaptation of a nearly un-adaptable GN.

2. LA VIE EN ROSE

I seriously love every single thing about this movie. The scenery, the clothing, the music, the actors, the language. EVERYTHING. Edith Piaf's life was beautifully tragic, and Marion Cotillard does a fucking BRILLIANT job of portraying her.

1. THERE WILL BE BLOOD

This is, uh, a very cathartic movie for me. I don't really know what to say about it other than that. Well, ok, all the acting is top-notch, obviously from DDL, but Paul Dano and the little boy (forgot his name. Sorry. YOU'RE JUST A BASTARD IN A BASKET) do wonderful jobs as well. And you know being able to compete with DDL on screen means you're doing something right.

and there it is. Sorry I wrote so much about everything. But yeah, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND all these movies. plz don't judge me too hard about my movie choices.

:iconmanicouch:
Ooh, we also have similar movie tastes! :iconradioactivemongoose: and I like the same-ish movies, too. :]

I have yet to see Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, though. I bet I'll like it 'cause I :heart: RDJ.
:icondumbfishie:
aaahh you need to see Kiss Kiss Bang Bang! RDJ gets tasered in the balls and kisses another man if that will help convince you.
:icondumbfishie:
YES.
I.
AGREE.
SO.
HARD.


I really don't see how anyone could NOT like it.
