Favorite film genre...

[Isiltári]

...what's your favorite?

[Adunauriel]

I admit it, I love Chick flicks.... I'm a Picese we're romantics.;)

[Isiltári]

Lol....I love all of those genres, but I voted for chick flicks too......I'm a Libra! lol lol lol

[Sindarin]

I enjoy Drama films myself. Some Sci-Fi and Fantasy movies as well.

[Isiltári]

Vote, Sindarin! :thumbs: :)

[Mirkgirl]

I need multiple choices here )-:
I'd vote for all without Romantic and Drama (guess I'm just stange :huh: )

[Adunauriel]

Well so far we have 100% of the votes WooHoo!!!!:whoohoo:

[Arwen]

another vote for Romantic dramas/comedies :thumbs: :smooch:

[Illuvatar]

Well,

I am a Sci-fi & Fantasy fanatic!

Go figure!! lol

And love a well done Horror movie as well! Go HellRaiser!



PS. Didn't mean to break up your 100% thing.....neener neener!

[Catz]

im with Illu and Mirky here....love SF and Fantasy...and just about anything else EXCEPT chick flicks lol oh and war movies...just not into em at all...
:catz:

[Adunauriel]

Dern, we've been cut down to 66%.:(

[TheRingBearer]

I love action films but they have to make sense for me to really like them . If they're just really stupid then I normally switch off (in my head ;) ). I like crime films or ones that have a cool twist as well and lets not forget sci fi/fantasy. I voted for action but my favourite fantasy films are of course, lord of the rings and star wars.

[Isiltári]

Lol......honestly, I like all different types of movies. I love sci-fi, drama, chick movies, classic movies -- even some Westerns!

But I just had to cast my vote for the chick flicks. lol

[Cuiel Rilwen]

I just love a good plot, in almost any genre...would have been great if I could have rated each genre between 1-10, then I would have been happy!

[Lessa]

It depends on what mood I'm in as to what I like to watch. Basically I like all genres if they are good. With the possible exception of true Horror films. They make me jump too much and yes I know that is the point but take Alien for example I knew the thing would come out of his stomach at precisely that point but I' still jumped about half a mile into the air and nearly ended up on the floor. I was lying on the sofa at the time, the only reason I didn't fall off was that my b/f saved me. Mind you he couldn't stop laughing at the way I jumped. As you can see after 20 yrs he's never let me forget it. :)

[Isiltári]

Awwww, that's adorable, Lessa! :)

[Lessa]

:blush: Why thank you Isiltári. We've been married since Jan 1985 but fortunately Alien's not on that often. The trouble is the girls think it's funny too. :( :grin:

Lessa

[Adunauriel]

I enjoy the Alien movies, but I would have to say my fave of the is Resurection. It's the coolest, Ripley with alien DNA. The final Alien, EEeeeewwwww. Cool movie...;)

[Cuiel Rilwen]

I can't stand that scene with the alien comming out of his stomach, it makes me sick! Also like the X-files, where some fungee grew threw their victims throat, I can't stand that kind of movies..yach! Even if the plot was great, and the rest of the film was good, I can't bring myself to watch it again. Sorry about that.

[Isiltári]

Aliens is my favorite of the series. :)

[Bonos-Girl]

i've never seen it.....i like fantasy and sci-fi best....some hick flicks are good but i'm not that keen on all of them!!!

[Daisy Gamgee]

I love chick flicks, but I'll watch pretty much anything:thumbs:

[Adunauriel]

Chick flicks are fun.... I just love a good cry.mecry

[Lintefaniel]

The choices were admirable and I did choose Chick Flicks but I would prefer to admit to any and all Independent films! I love the Festival flicks that come out. Big fan of Sundance and Torontos Film Festival releases. Spitfire Grill and Your Love is Better then Ice Cream are just a few great flicks I have seen....notworthy

Well Lessa, this post is just for you. Guess what Movie I watched earlier?........ It was on AMC (American Movie Classics) & made me think of you.... I laughed...lol

[Lessa]

Alien? Well I'm glad it made you laugh and not jump. Whoever you were with must have thought you were totally insane to laugh at that point.

Lessa

[Adunauriel]

I watched it by myself. I had to hide my eyes at certain parts.:) I'm such a wuss.lol

[Lessa]

Snap. I can watch Dracula films without flinching. they are funny even the scxarier ones. I prefer Christopher Lee as Dracula.

Lessa

[Adunauriel]

I totally love Bram Stokers' Dracula. The one with Gary Oldman. Love that movie.....:)

[Akiba]

chick flicks blechy!!! the old dracula movies are funny and weird I prefer action movies though anything with stuff that gets blown up guns hand to hand combat just totally kick butt movies!!! James Bond for me is good. Horror's also cool but kick butt action rocks!!

[Daisy Gamgee]

Ahhh, James Bond is definately a favourite for Bank Holidays :thumbs:

[Adunauriel]

You've gotta love a good James Bond film... My fave James Bond would have to be.. Sean Connery..... Love him...;)

[Lessa]

I prefer Sean connery too. He got that 'Je ne sais quoi' that something more than any of the others. I do like Piers Brosnan though.
Daisy I agree Bank Holidays would not be the same without a Bond film on the telly.

Lessa

[Adunauriel]

Piers Brosnan would also have to be my second fave Bond. :)

[Lessa]

Pierce turned up unexpectedly at last nights Children in Need. He was there to record tonight's Parkinson so popped in to say hello and lend his support.

Lessa

[Aerandir]

Scifi/Fantasy.
I like spy stuff to though.

~Aera

[Little Devil]

Action, ppl kick-butt, also love chick flicks but action is great. :knight:

[Akiba]

woot!! action Sean Connery also my favorite james bond although i eally canot stand those movies that take place in the future even though they're action and guns and stuf everything looks all destroyed and despairing

[Lintefaniel]

How kind of Peirce to take that time!! Gotta put one in for the Stupid Comedies...You know Dumb and Dumber! Or other painfully idiotic yet funny films. roflmao:p

[Adunauriel]

Ah, painfull idiotic films... I very much enjoyed the movie Dude, Where's My Car? Stupid movie, but I die laughing whenever I watch it. It's too much fun. roflmao Oh and another good one is, Baby's Day Out. It's not Idiotic, but you might bust a gut....lol

[Lintefaniel]

For stupid movies, NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE.....it hurts me very deeply..I want to cry from the pain it caused me. I am saying this in complete honesty, it is an awful movie, but it will make you laugh at its inappropriateness

[Adunauriel]

I so laughed at its inappropriateness.... I loved its inappropriateness..... Then again I do like that sort of dirty humor.....:naughty: :) ;)

[Isiltári]

Lol.......I like dirty humor too, Adunauriel.......and also, of course, like you said: a good cry! mecry

[Lintefaniel]

Tears are what make girls night out worth while! As I type I am suffering to watch Beth's spirit depart this mortal world all within the same room her loving sister Jo has come to, to read a fun excerpt from Dickens. Beth's final words are the words that touch me the most. "I know I shall be homesick for you, even in Heaven." *blubbering* Oh the sadness!! mecry How does one go on when we're made to weep at such things mecry mecry;)

[Adunauriel]

The same way we've always gone on. Chin up, chest out, and one foot infront of the other..... ;) It's no too terribly hard, but that's what others are there for. To help you in times of need......;) :)

[Lintefaniel]

Bless you Teddy, you are a dear! It just occured to me that Teddy is in the same said movie I only just recently ranted about! How nifty! ONly Christian Bale is a far better Laurie then a Teddy. It is suiting to refer to him as HOT, however. especially in A MIdsummers Night Dream.....bum shot makes the ending worth while...well that and the whole scenes with Kevin Kline and his little acting troupe at the end.....OH I love that movie!!! Rupert, Rupert!! And not to mention that lovely (though hairy) Stanley Tucci!!! OOOOOOOO so wonderful!

[Ruthiel]

Hey! I'm Picese and true, I can be romantic. But ugh! I hate chick flicks! (No offense or anything...) No wonder guys will go with me to see a movie. I won't go see the chick ones. Personally, I prefer horror and action. Especially James Bond action. I love his cars!!! Have a good one y'all! (No, I'm not American, I just say that sometimes...)

:elfqueen:

[Ithielnor]

well looks like i'm the only one who prefers comedy, what can i say, i just love to laugh lol :grin:

[Ruthiel]

I like some comedies, but I have a very strange sense of humor, so it has to be a perfect comdey.

[Adunauriel]

I too enjoy a good comedy... I love the Austin Powers movies, always funny stuff... IMO;)

[Bonos-Girl]

I've only seen the latest austin powers film. are the others as funny?

[Ruthiel]

I only saw the last 2 Austin Powers movies, but the 3rd was probably the best. Is the first one funny too?

[Adunauriel]

I think the second is funniest... The first one i really good thou, I would most definately check it out if you get the chance.... ;) lol

[Ruthiel]

Hopefully I will. Thanks for the recommendation.

:elfqueen:

[Nessa the Dancer]

I voted for Romatic commedies so as not not to let the side down (I see SiFi and Horror are creeping up on us lol ) but I love the action films as well, there really isn't anything quite like a good car chase, and I love the James Bond movies.

[Little Devil]

James Bond are great!! Austin Powers 3 is out on video!!! v v v funny film roflmao

[Adunauriel]

Austin Powers 3 is totally funny, and it got alot of other Celebs in it... I laughed at the whole opening scene.....;) lol

[Iarfirithwen]

OOooo this is hard. I like lots of different things, often to suit my mood, sometimes something arty, sometimes something I don't have to think through. think I'm going to suprise myself and pick Drama over Sci-fi/Fantasy. Its not because within the genre there's a few bad sci-fi/fantasy films, hell there's some reall doozeys in any category. I'll just kid myself and say that good Sci-fi/fantasy is good drama too hehehehe :nono:
Chick flicks (e.g., films with meg ryan :grin: ) are a definite last on my list. I'll watch em, I even really like some of them *gasp* (I liked You've got mail and NottingHill) they're just a little too much like drinking sugar flavoured water, as a genre on the whole...icky (ooo and I don't count things like Pride and Prejudice in that category ...they're drama too hehehehehe)...I'm oscillating between Drama and Sci-fi/Fantasy ... in the end Drama gets my vote because Horror is in the other category and it pulls the rest down.

[Adunauriel]

You know what's funny, is Dramas are usually Chick Flicks as well.....;) lol

[Little Devil]

lol

[Adunauriel]

I know this has nothing to do with Fave Film Gere... But just to L/D, I just noticed at this Moment I'm exactly 2,001 posts ahead of you... Your at 1,611, and I'm at 3,612.... I know it doesn't really mean anything, but it struck me as interesting....:) :grin: :cool:

[Little Devil]

hmmm....I thought so too! ;) how do you do that? you registered in Oct and your one of the people with the most posts on this site. :thumbs: ;)

[Adunauriel]

Actually I'm the #1 poster.... I got it by haveing too much free time.....:thumbs: lol

[Pinklotus]

I like all of these genres .... it depends totally on my mood. Well I´m not very into Western Movies and some very fulsome (?) horror Movies.

[Aniviel]

Adun, I'm a picses too, but in no way am I the girlie movie type. Blow em up, blood and guts, with maybe a kiss scene or two.....
Do they have a category for that?

[Adunauriel]

I belive that would fall under the 'Action' type movies, but I could be wrong...

All I ment by the Picese comment was that Piceans usually tend to be more romantic. Not that all piceans were Romantic.. I too enjoy a good Blow em up movie every so often. I just usually prefer a good romance....:thumbs:

[Brego]

I'm an action kinda gal but then again it does depend on what mood i'm in really sumtimes i just wanna sit down and watch a good chick flick :p

[Adunauriel]

I most definately enjoy a good comedy from time to time.. Gotta get some laughs inbetween the tears. Or, Laugh until you cry...lol mecry lol

[SindarinGirl]

I'm all about action.
Ahem. Let me rephrase that! lol
Love the action flicks - Broken Arrow, The Rock, Die Hard, Speed, anything Connery Bond or Brosnan Bond, and my man, Jackie Chan! :whoohoo:

[Grima Wormtongue]

i voted drama cuz there was no "mind ****" option. :)

so drama is close enough to "suspense drama" so i guess its good enough.

[Eáránë]

i luv comedy!!!! i always need somethin 2 laugh bout... sometimes wen i have nothin else 2 watch... i watch chick flicks... they're pretty good.. but most of them r 2 predictable.. but i'll watch any heath ledger movie anyday!!! :))

[Celebrían]

I voted for dramas, but to be accurate, my fav genre is historical drama with action! I also love fantasy (hence LOTR ;) ). The only category I'm not a big fan of are the chick flicks ( I do like a few, but as a general rule, I don't go for them). Why do I have a feeling that I will soon be trouted? :grin:
