I hate it when someone asks me what my favorite movie is, because it really is an impossible question to answer. My favorites change with my mood, the company I'm in, the genre or movie we're talking about... and basically just with time. I hate to admit it, but my opinion of a movie can even change based on popular opinion and the current "trend" surrounding it. Sometimes, you just get sick of hearing about a movie!
So, I think I'll start off by listing some of my favorite movies in different genres (remember, they change - this is just right now!). This will most likely spark something nagging in the back of my mind that I can expand on in later posts. I'm sure it will also get people in an uproar one way or another, but oh well. So here goes!
