What are your favorite movies?

“What's your favorite scary movie?” Scream


Horror… a simplistic answer albeit an honest one; would
it be plausible to choose the stars from the sky, one book
in a library, or even a moment in a lifetime? Perhaps tis
only greed but I choose the sky, there is a reason Amazon
exist, and much like Rapunzel in Tangled,
I ask the question ”When Will My Life Begin”.


Anyway horror is my favorite genre; boys, girls, and terrifying
monsters but is not man the greatest monster of them all
in this era. I am but a hopeless romantic but everything;
vampires to werewolves, zombies to beasts have been turned
into little more than… hmm somewhat like me, little boys
crying out for pretty girls to love them. Perhaps this somewhat
explains my fondest for the single solitary villains e.g.Captivity,
Summer’s Moon, Walled In, etc. However
I have yet to turn my back on zombies, along with any horrific
tale that does involve an honest love story between a boy
and a girl. [image] With horror, some of the best have twist endings, and while
I am quite twisted, my favorite plotline is a would-be love
story. Let me reiterate would-be because I have never been
one for the blasé love story but a girl pretending to be
in love, a girl both falling and flying, or of truly falling
in love with the brigand, the monster… don’t girls
clandestinely seek out the villain?

The usual tripe mistaken for a love story teaches that the
good boy gets the girl; I suppose that’s why we call it
fiction. If anything I prefer the love story between the
angel and the boy with good intentions, that’s as close
to reality as one can make it, if not choose to live. The
Hunger Games Series, Divergent, soon Fifty
Shades of Grey all men with good hearts and young women
who find themselves becoming… more, that’s what it
always is with me, I want an angel but how can I love an angel?
If it’s any consolation I can’t love a either…
I own quite the plethora of porn, but how many do I see, and
how many do I watch; that is the question.

Speaking of seeing or indeed rather not, I detest movies
with the plot of mistaken identity with the exception of
I Know Who Killed Me. There are also these movies
that somehow feed us the superstition that for example
the student body will one day stand with those they once
rejected.

A walking contradiction to be sure
with my repugnance of this reality and so I seek fiction
and then criticize when fiction is nowhere near realistic
enough. Perchance I’m searching for something to believe
in according to my own philosophies or in relation to my
own experiences which explains my dislike for full blown
comedies. Now I understand I’m not one to bring about
thoughts of “Curiouser and curiouser!” but
I’m not one for others documentaries such as Justin
Bieber, Katy Perry, One Direction
and the like but I have watched others such as Defiance,
Schindler’s List etc.While I have nothing against
3-D the concept is getting rather pedestrian; it is almost used as an excuse for bad
storytelling though the failures are few and far between.


Again it is quite possible to give a detailed reference
of my favorite movies but where would it end and what haveI
forgotten. There are moments, I believe, glimpses of myself and while these too are far too numerous I will name
a few.

In most recent memory my favorite movie isn’t even a movie, though
its creation has been noted and that movie would be “The
Last of Us”. If I could have love I would want an ending in tune with Silver Linings Playbook.
I want a girl that would look not just at my art but at me like
Emma Roberts did with Freddie Highmore
in The Art of Getting By.

How about a long
drawn out love affair like the movie 28 Hotel Rooms
would I do that with one woman or several;I can’t be too
sure. I would like to theorize that I would be a bit more intelligent
than Philip in Total Romance: Initiation. Last
but not least, as much as I enjoy Hentai, there aren’t
a myriad of endings I would like to play out.
