What do you go with. Key word being one.

Let me know if I'm missing a genre. I've edited this post like 15 times. I'm editing the title and don't even have the genres listed and I hit something on the iPad and it says thanks for posting and I'm on the Hornets board.

Copy and paste if you want.

Action

Comedy

Documentary

Foreign

Drama

Fantasy

Horror

Chick flick

Sci-fi

Sports

Western

Animated

Pre 1960





Action - No idea. Terminator 2?

Comedy - I will get bashed for this and I dont care. Zoolander.

Documentary - The Best That Never Was. Man this just struck a chord with me. The King of Kong is up there.

Foreign - Seven Samurai. Fairly easy choice for me seeing as its possibly my favorite movie of all time.

Drama - This is pretty much impossible given the sheer amount of choices. Maybe Dial M for Murder. There are probably 5-10 Hitchcock movies I could list here. If that's even considered a drama. I'm saying yes it's my party I'll cry if I want to cry if I want to. Godfather and Chinatown were probably the ones I would lose sleep over not picking. Gone With the Wind. I'm going to change most of my picks probably ten time.

Fantasy - Lord of the Rings.

Horror - Psycho. Can I count that? Doesn't look like much nowadays but at the time it was about as bad as it gets.

Chick Flick - Mean Girls, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days hmmm. I'm going Two Weeks Notice.

Sci-fi - Blade Runner. Best movie of the 80's.

Sports - The Sandlot. Thank you Witness for reminding me of the greatest movie of my childhood.

Western - I probably would get shot in the head because this is a ridiculously hard choice. My favorite genre. Probably The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Ahhhhhh Lonesome Dove, Josey Wales, The Wild Bunch, Once Upona Time in the West, Tombstone, Assasination of Jessie James, The Searchers ect

Animated - The Lion King or Finding Nemo. This is tuff. My childhood or Pixar. Just kill me.
