What is your favorite movie of all time?
Mine is Some Like It Hot.
shareI can't do it. And for that, I am sorry.
No favorite song of all time either.
Top ten?
sharehmmm.... maybe. movies are weird b/c they can take hold for a period based on who you are during that period.
but for music? no way
Yes, I agree, but I want to know some movies you like.
sharePick a letter
shareL
sharepick another. nothing jumped into my mind for L
shareD
shareThe Deer Hunter
Deliverance
Dead Alive
Donnie Darko
And for L, maybe the 3rd film of The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
shareTestosterone
shareThat one? Or all of them? Actually, I liked the visuals best and the story of a burden ill-equipped to carry. Battle scenes play into the visual thing. You can pause nearly any moment of that film and have a majestic painting.
shareAll but Donnie Darko. Even though it's a Male protagonist.
shareI think my reasons are a bit different but maybe that doesn't matter.
And Dead Alive is a funny horror movie about a mama's boy and his zombie mother. Is it b/c there's violence, it's labeled "testosterone"?
I've not seen it, but I'm aware that men love it, see it on lists a lot. It's all good. I dig Deliverance.
shareMen don't love it unless "testosterone"? It's just batshit, low-budget creative, early Peter Jackson. Think Evil Dead.

Yep, just like Rambo.
Evil Dead, again, a dude flick. Women don't watch that kind of thing. Sure there are exceptions.
shareYeah, exceptions for sure. A girl from high school couldn't wait to show all of us what she had on VHS. That's when I saw it first. She saw the remake on opening night back in 2013 (she was counting down the days on Facebook), but she was sorely disappointed as were all fans of the original. It lost all its low budget charm. Less money forces you to be more creative, and practical fx still work best in that type of film
shareI hate when the thread gets thin like this but I still have a lot to say. When I wrote testosterone I don't mean Rambo. I just meant guy stuff. All the films I listed also have a Male protagonist. I feel I have offended you yet agsin.
shareAh, "yet again". Is that why my film tastes were summed up in one word based around gender? Was the question about my film favs a Trojan Horse? Did you want me to think you an ass so you could pick a fight or resume one that started with someone else? If that's the case, I'm not biting.
shareI liked that one two, especially the scene with the banjos.
shareNo, not because of violence. Just, it's for dudes. They like that stuff. Am I being an ass?
shareA tie between "Seven Samurai" and "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".
