If You Could Only Watch ONE Movie From Each Genre The Rest Of Your Life - Choose Wisely
Posted on 9/11/18 at 12:09 pm
Posted on 9/11/18 at 12:09 pm
What do you go with. Key word being one.
Let me know if I'm missing a genre. UPDATE: Mystery/Thriller and Musical added
Copy and paste if you want.
Action
Comedy
Documentary
Foreign
Drama
Fantasy
Horror
Chick flick
Sci-fi
Sports
Western
Animated
Pre 1960
Superhero/Comic Book
Mystery/Thriller
Musical
Action - No idea. Terminator 2? Turns out this might be my least favorite genre.
Comedy - Zoolander. But why male models?
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. 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.
Fantasy - Lord of the Rings.
Horror - Psycho. Doesn't look much like a horror nowadays but at the time it was about as bad as it gets.
Chick Flick - If the Pride & Prejudice mini series counts, the Jennifer Ehle/Colin Firth version not the 2005 crap, its definitely that. I'm going Two Weeks Notice if I cant pick a mini series.
Sci-fi - Blade Runner. Best movie of the 80's.
Sports - The Sandlot. GOAT sports movie.
Western - 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.
Pre 1960 - Diam M for Murder
Superhero/Comic Book - The Dark Knight. This is probably the farthest gap in between #1 and #2. Sin City is #2 but behind TDK by quite a bit.
Mystery/Thriller - Dial M For Murder
Musical - Grease. Definitely my least favorite drama. I honestly cant think of one other musical that I like.

You don't have Mystery/Thriller as a category, so I will add that. And my movie is The Prestige.
