Movies and movie recs or "What do you mean you haven't seen that?"
I'm interrupting hometown month to talk movies. And movie recs. With summer blockbuster more or less upon us, it seems like an appropriate time.
1. What do you look for in a movie?/What kinds of movies do you like?
2. Do you have a favourite movie or three? (I'm using random numbers here. Feel free to talk about as many movies as you like. Or as few.)
3. What movies had the biggest impact on you?
4. Do you have any movies that you indiscriminately rec to everyone or think everyone should see at least once? (Could be the same as or different from #1 or #2. Totally up to you. Elaboration is encouraged.)
*Or winter blockbuster season, if you live in the Southern Hemisphere.

Couldn't have predicted these answers at all.ALL of the Star Wars movies, though? Or just the originals? *hopes fervently that the new one is good*
TOP GUN! I agree with you on 80s nostalgia. As you know.
ETA: Was Book of Eli good, then? I remember the trailers, but never watched it.

I liked Book of Eli, it's post-apocalypse so it's not warm and fuzzy. I mostly watched for Denzel and Gary Oldman is always a good villain. I liked the cinematography a lot and didn't find it pandering. There were some religious overtones, but I didn't find them offensive in anyway.
