I am not too cool!
Total number of films I own on DVD/video:
Tallying up TV series as well as films? Man, that's tough, 70-80? maybe?
Last film I watched:
in theaters:
Just yesterday I watched Wedding Crashers with my brother. Man, fuck those guys!
at home:
And then we watched Risky Business together. Man, fuck that guy!
Last film I bought:
That would have to be Happy Together by Wong Kar Wai. Man, those guys were fucking!
5 films that mean a lot to me (no particular order):
1. Better Off Dead: Man this film made me laugh so hard, I thought I was going to die, then I realized I was laughing at death, and I laughed even harder. Plus this film solidified John Cusack as the guy I would like to be reincarnated as, if ever I was to be reincarnated as a sensitive teen hearthrob from the eighties.
2. They Live: John Carpenter's cautionary sci-fi tale about alien propaganda starring the one and only Roddy Roddy Piper had me quoting lines I didn't even understand for a good portion of my young adult life. Only now do I realize, I was a genius even then. "What's a matter baby?"
3. Chasing Amy: This movie taught me more about relationships than any other in my adolesence. Probably cause my own life situation was mirroring, in closest proximity, the situation in the film, and so it was rather resonant.
4. The Big Lebowski: Pure brilliance. I don't trust anybody who doesn't find this movie at least hilarious. The dialogue, the performances, the music, the camera work. This is the Coen Borthers in top form obsurdity.
5. Annie Hall/Husbands and Wives: My two current favorite films. Woody Allen is an absolute nut, and watching his films makes me wanna nut too...at how good they are. Sorry baby, I meant that metaphorically.
There is nobody left for me to tag that I know of, except for my cousin, so TAG on The Reject.
