Shaun of the Dead

Zombie movies are the best kind of scary movies. They're so much better than the hack and slash Jason and Michael Myers' movies (even though I like those ones, too, I just have to be in the right mood). It's not the same with zombie movies, I can watch them anytime, any place.

Shaun of the Dead is the best zombie movie. Period. I have a few zombie movies I like to repeat, but this the top of that list. If I didn't like Shaun and pub-loving ways, I'd still like it strictly for the zombies. I just love how the world is being over run by zombies, and all he can think about is going to the Winchester.

But this isn't a story just about zombies, it's also about friendship and how much you're willing to risk for the person you love. Seriously, watch and laugh.

Inception

My whole take (and love) of this movie can be found here:

The Usual Suspects

This definitely belongs on my top 10 favs.

This is also the first movie I ever saw with Kevin Spacey and it's the movie where I developed a full blown crush on the man (Yes, I wanted to be Mrs. Kevin Spacey when I was in high school and it didn't matter that he was over 20 years my senior). But I digress, this movie had it all: story, suspense, character and twist ending.

It's one of those movies that should be on everyone's must see list.

The Princess Bride

Possibly my absolute favorite movie of all time. When I think about favorite movies, it's the first one that comes to mind every time.

I've been in love with this movie since I first saw it on TV when I was 6. This movie is what started my love of movies. Princess Buttercup wasn't quite the princess I wanted to be (she seemed a little bit too dependent on a man to come save her), but I was jealous she got to marry Westley. How could I not be? He told her he loved her practically every time he saw her (she just didn't get it).

Favorite Movies

It never comes as a shock to anyone who knows me that I love movies. They're like books but in life like form so they do wonders for my imagination.

Plus everyone knows that everything I learned, I learned from movies. Well, maybe not everything, but it's pretty close.

I've decided to make a list of my top 100 movies. Believe me, even with as many movies as I've seen, this really was a toughie. And going through my list took a lot longer than I thought because it turned out I really don't love THAT many movies.

So the list. I'm going to post one everyday so I can A) post the list and B) gives me an excuse to blog and not slack off. It's a win/win situation for me.

Books, Books, Books . . .

I love books. I love the feel of them when you're reading. I love the smell of freshly purchased copy of your favortie author's last novel. I don't know why, but to me it reminds me of my childhood, home, and those good old days of carefreeness. I remember summer days that were too hot and humid to set a foot outside that were spent in the air conditioned apartment, curled up on the couch with my latest book. Those are some of my fondest memories.

It's now years later and I still love books. I have plenty of shelves and book piles to prove it. But unlike my younger self, the time to read them has been cut from hours upon hours to maybe fifteen minutes a day. It's sad, but that's sometimes what happens.

Life gets in the way, but books, my love of books refuses to budge.

Apparently I'm . . .

Dean Winchester. Why is that not surprising?
