First off, I will say that the answers given today may in no way resemble my answers if I took the quiz later today or last night. I can&#8217;t pick favorites. (quiz via :hannah: via :carrieoke:)<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. The last movie you went to see in a theater<\/strong>: I know this one! I went to see <i>Casablanca<\/i> at the Classic Center on Sunday.  You may have heard of this film. I think it was up for an Oscar like a million years ago or something. My other two films of 2005 are <i>The Aviator<\/i> and <i>In Good Company<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. The last movie you watched at home<\/strong>: I know that Kate and I watched <i>Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle<\/i> a few weeks ago.  I have been watching a lot of TV on DVD lately and the movies have suffered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. How many movies do you own?<\/strong><br \/>\nI have no idea. 50? I used to buy a lot of DVDs and then I got a ReplayTV and that was about it for me. I have recently started to, um, acquire new movies so my collection is growing once again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3a. What was the last movie you bought?<\/strong><br \/>\n<i>Garden State<\/i>. Love it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the next three movies in your NetFlix queue (or similar service)?<\/strong><br \/>\n<i>Ray, The Grudge, Key Largo<\/i>. I figured I should see the first one, kind of sort of want to see the second, and put the third in after <i>Casablanca<\/i> the other day. Of course I have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spynotebook.org\/chip\/newnetflix.php\">HUNDREDS in my queue that you peruse here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. List five movies you adore\/mean a lot to you<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>off the top of my head. in no order.<\/p>\n<p><i>Clueless<\/i>: Very funny movie. Murray keeping it real. Elton leaving his Cranberries CD in the quad. Legs crossed towards one another as an unequivical sex invite. Paul Rudd back before I had problems with him. Seen it dozens of times.<\/p>\n<p><i>Wayne&#8217;s World<\/i>: When :Susan: and I saw this back in the day, we thought it was the greatest movie we had ever seen. We then vowed to see it as often as possible, trying to beat each other. I&#8217;m sure we have both lost track. I quoted Wayne&#8217;s World earlier today. I quote Wayne&#8217;s World every day in some tiny way.<\/p>\n<p><i>Breakfast Club<\/i>: I am the John Hughes Generation. Love this movie and <i>Pretty In Pink<\/i> and <i>Some Kind of Wonderful<\/i>. I saw this at the theatre in St. Simons whenever it came out. I think we saw it twice that vacation. Never liked the John Hughes comedies, but damn if don&#8217;t love me some teenage angst.<\/p>\n<p><i>Trust<\/i> and other Hal Hartley movies: This is entirely Christine&#8217;s fault. Back in the day at UGA, we worked at the place that ran the university cable system. UGA had its own movie channel back then and Christine chose to put <i>Trust<\/i> on as one of the four movies one week. We watched it at work everytime it came on and that lead to my Hal Hartly fixation. :Susan: and I used to go to the Manhattan and pretend to be in Hal Hartley movies. &#8220;Do you know the difference between digital and analog recording?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Back To The Future<\/i>: Love me some time travel movies. I have seen this movie multiple times. I saw it at Georgia Square mall the weekend it came out. It was some good stuff. Other time travel classics would be the first <i>Bill and Ted<\/i> and heck, I&#8217;ll even through in <i>Peggy Sue Got Married<\/i> for the time-as-a-buritto theory of temporal relocaton.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Name your guilty pleasure movie (or genre):<\/strong><br \/>\nGod help me, I have no idea why, but I really really really like <i>The Thing Called Love<\/i> with Samantha Mathis, River Phoenix, Sandra Bullock, and Dermot Mulroney. But yet, don&#8217;t own it. Perhaps for my own good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Name 3 people to whom you&#8217;re going to pass these questions on, and why<\/strong>: :annemarie: stole :stephanie: who was totally going to be one of my three. How about I choose my two blogging ex-girlfriends :bonnie: and :amym: and I throw in a :susan: since she has been mentioned so many times in this post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whizzing through the Athens Blogosphere like pee on the Taco Stand floor, it&#8217;s that damn movie quiz.
