Day 02 - The most underrated movie
Day 03 - A movie that makes you really happy
Day 04 - A movie that makes you sad
Day 05 - Favorite love story in a movie
Moulin Rouge. DUH. (How do you not see THAT coming?!)
It's forbidden love. *sigh* LOVE IT. Baz Luhrmann gets so many AWESOME!points for making a story about a poor writer falling in love with a courtesan amazing. I LOVE the way it's set up. You know almost immediately that Satine is now dead. So you know right off that this isn't going to work. The music is great, the acting is amazing, and the plot is lovely. The villain wants her for himself, but she's in love with ONE man instead of many. Too bad she HAD to die. I don't think the story would have worked if she had lived. My hope is that he went on to publish that book and got money for it. That'd be one reason for having the character die. There's so many different topics of discussion to go off of for that movie, but I'll just shush for now because then this entry would be extra long.
In my eyes, this story is it for me. Two people so much in love and yet they can't fulfill it. Yes, it's sad, but REAL. Something has to give. Wonderful. Great love story.
Day 06 - Favorite made for TV movie
Argh. I really cannot decide between Johnny Tsunami, Motocrossed, and Brink! They are all so great. It's when Disney Channel actually showed good stuff. Now...well, now it's just full of SUCK AND FAIL.
Yeah, I'm cheating. I pick all of them. They are so much fun. That's about all I have. It's my childhood...what else can I say?
Day 07 - The most surprising plot twist or ending
hmmm. Darn you, Christopher Nolan! I was going to say Inception, but The Prestige totally just got me. I wouldn't have guessed that at all. Seriously. That was brilliant. Nolan does what he's supposed to do. The viewers are the audience, Nolan is the magician. He has you focusing on something else during the entire movie, and finally he just HITS you with the prestige. It is amazing. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. *sigh* you win, sir. You win.
Day 08 - A movie that you’ve seen countless times
Try EVERY movie I own. But what movie have I watched more than Pride & Prejudice? hmmmmm.
Most likely this one.
Yeah. Blazing Saddles. It's my favorite Mel Brooks movie. I absolutely adore this movie. Like there are no WORDS for how much I love it. Mel Brooks...his humor just gets me. No matter how many times I watch this, it cracks me up.
Day 09 - A movie with the best soundtrack
....are you sure you don't mean score? If SOUNDTRACK, "Invincible". If SCORE, "Gladiator". Hans Zimmer really captures the emotion in the movie. I still believe that Gladiator has the best score I've heard.
Alright, Invincible...seriously, LOOK:
1. I Got A Name Jim Croce
2. Let It Ride Bachman Turner Overdrive
3. I Just Want To Celebrate Rare Earth
4. Free Ride Edgar Winter
5. Mandolin Wind Rod Stewart
6. Drift Away Dobie Gray
7. Funk No. 49 The James Gang
8. Do You Know What I Mean Lee Michaels
9. Let's Work Together Canned Heat
10. Fooled Around And Fell In Love Elvin Bishop
11. How Long Ace
12. Feelin Alright Grand Funk Railroad
13. Stranglehold Ted Nugent
If I'm wrong, my second choice is Dazed and Confused.
Otherwise, my first choice stands.
That's about all for today.
