Got tagged by @coffeeandconundrums to talk about 10 movies I like, so here we go:
1. Yellow Submarine: While I think The Beatles are mediocre today, I was OBSESSED with them when I was little. My dad had a DVD of this movie and I watched it over and over, so much so that I can probably quote the whole thing.
2. Who Framed Roger Rabbit: The special effects in this movie are ASTOUNDING. And it combines two of my favorite things: cartoon slapstick and gritty detectives.
3. Batman Returns: Got to add at least one Batman movie to the list. I love Danny Devito’s portrayal as The Penguin. This movie made me much more interested in the character than before I watched it.
4. Beetlejuice: This is one of my comfort movies. I just adore Michael Keaton’s performance (even if he is only in there for like 30 minutes).
5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail: I love this movie so much, I wrote an analysis on it for a film class I took in college.
6. Batman (1966): Another comfort movie. You can tell how much fun the actors were having during filming, and it’s infectious.
7. Army of Darkness: The movie where I realized I had a crush on Bruce Campbell (and other older men, haha oops)
8. Mad Max: Fury Road: When I was walking out of the theater after seeing it, an older gentleman in front of me said it sucked. Obviously, he doesn’t like having fun.
9. WALL-E: I don’t think I know anyone who didn’t like this movie. This movie convinced me robots can be cute.
10. The Road to El Dorado: Love triangle? No. Polyamory. (And I also just really love the animation in this movie, it’s a crime that it didn’t do well in the box office.)
And I will tag @finniestoncrane, @march-harrigan, and @sweetums0kitty (along with anyone else who wants to share! I love hearing about what people like)
