Fifteen Movie Questions Meme
Andrew Buckle
1. Movie you love with a passion.
The #1 Film of the Decade: There Will Be Blood (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2007)
2. Movie you vow to never watch.
Pirates 5. Please let this franchise end.
3. Movie that literally left you speechless.
I’m going with the most recent cinema experience to leave me speechless, which was Incendies.
4. Movie you always recommend.
I find myself recommending The Usual Suspects on a weekly basis. Sideways too.
5. Actor/actress you always watch, no matter how crappy the movie.
Phillip Seymour Hoffman is involved in few crappy movies, but if so, I’m there.
6. Actor/actress you don’t get the appeal for.
Nup!
7. Actor/actress, living or dead, you’d love to meet.
Daniel Day-Lewis. Greatest actor currently living.
8. Sexiest actor/actress you’ve seen.
I’m a big fan of Carey Mulligan.
9. Dream Cast
Having Carey Muligan, Amy Adams, Leo DiCaprio, Ryan Gosling and Daniel Day-Lewis in the same film together would be fairly awesome.
10. Favorite Actor Pairing
Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling
11. Favorite Movie Setting.
Los Angeles 2019. I wouldn’t want to live there. But it’s pretty cool.
12. Favourite Decade for Movies
Toughie! I’m going with the 70′s. Coppola owned it.
13. Chick flick or action movie?
Ahh…ACTION!
14. Hero, villain or anti-hero?
I do like a good anti-hero.
15. Black and White or Colour?
Wow. Some of my favorite films are in B+W. I guess I’m thankful there is color in the films by Wes Anderson.

Dogtooth is the most uncomfortable movie i’ve ever watched. Like from beginning to end, it was just so uncomfortable to watch…although part of that came from the plot summary the family situation as idyllic…which was so far from the truth
Oh, and on the dvd cover, one of the reviews quoted said it was “Hilarious.” How someone could find that movie hilarous is beyond me
I do see ‘hilarious,’ the ‘Dogtooth’ dance becoming a cult classic as much as the movie itself. I want to know the choreo of that dance. It’d have been easier if they danced on 8-counts.
Idyllic? God, I want to meet the person who described the movie’s family and setting as that. I didn’t like ‘Dogtooth’ the moment the credits started rolling, but it ferments and it’s a really smart film.
Great picks. Still haven’t seen the fall … It’s been on my must-watch-soon list for almost a year, but never get round to it!
I actually am a Before Sunset devotee, but Before Sunrise is lovely as hell. We have the decade common. Gotta love the 60s . And gotta respect Mr. Cage!
Great List
I’m saving Before Sunset for when I’m 30 as well, so that the characters age with me. I don’t know if I’ll be able to constrain myself, but I’ll try
And yes, mr. Cage must be respected.
I think I saw Before Sunset when I was 13
I saw that before Before Sunrise also, so I knew what was to come.
I like all your responses …. I see a lot of commonality; it gives me something to think about.
Paolo – When I first went through the list and saw #1 I was thinking that the Madea film was the film you love with a passion …. I was about to say Paolo, Paolo, Paolo ….
Andrew – lovely Keira Knightley snap!
I second this one, Andrew. No love for Keira? Is it all the period films? I mean, if I had a dime for every time I’ve fantasized about The Edge Of Love…wait, was that out loud. Never mind.
I’m with Andrew on this one. She really doesn’t strike as much of an actress.
I thought Keira (formerly Ikea) Knightley was pretty good in Never Let Me Go.
The peak of Keira’s acting chops is Never Let Me Go. I’m kind of scared that she’s going to be better but will be ignored because of the hype she had in the first years of her career.
I sort of like her. She was good in Atonement. And she’s really pretty.
This is brilliant. Thumbs up to Stevee and Anna. I must do this, no matter how hard it is…
I just finished mine – it really is a lot of fun!
Great job with this list. I agree about Before Sunrise, and think I even enjoyed Before Sunset more relating to my current age of 35. And you’re definitely right about Megan Fox. Honestly, I guess she’s attractive, but like you say, her grating personality makes it almost impossible to consider her anywhere near the top of even totally superficial “sexiest” lists. Also, to call her a movie star is also a stretch. Her career is going downhill fast.
Well, she was in two enormously big movies. I guess that qualifies her.
I love this idea because it gives all of your readers a peek into what makes your movie brains tick.
Paolo: I’ve seen Holy Smoke twice. The movie’s rough, yeah, but Kate’s so good.
Thanks for the link back to my site! And Nicolas Cage is the best! He’s just so entertaining!
Thank you for posting the meme first, otherwise I’d never gotten note of it : ) You have a fine blog.
And yes, Nicolas Cage is awesome. Nothing more needs to be said about that.
Awesome choices all around, great work guys!
The Fall looks pretty impressive, I may have to watch it.
And it’s been said before but I’ll say it again, Nic Cage is awesome!
Nice lists boys! I almost went with D-fens in my post as well.
What a great choice for sexiest. Gainsbourg would never be counted as a typical beauty which is why she is so sexy. Well that and she has so much talent and baby, talent is sexy as all hell.
Once is a very good recommendation. I love the story and the music is amazing. I still listen to it occasionally
Adding flame to the Keira fire: http://www.totalfilm.com/features/best-worst-keira-knightley-1
I meant fuel not flame – duh
No you want to add a flame to the fire. Please do lol
definitely agree on some of your choices …especially richard gere never got that either
Paolo: Thanks for stopping by. Unfortunately I haven’t seen Dogtooth but I might have to after your comment haha
