I found this tag on Youtube from robyn176 and Bazpierce and thought it would be fun. I always do book tags, but I wanted to do something movie related. Chad wanted to participate as well so both of our answers are included.
Questions:
1. Favorite movie of all time?
Heather – Shutter Island
Wow, that was incredibly hard. As I’ve stated in my Favorite Movies post, I have a ton of favorite movies, and I’m completely indecisive.
Chad – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
I’ve been watching this movie since I was way too young to be watching this movie. This was one of the first VHS tapes I remember having on my shelf that wasn’t made by Disney.
2. Favorite scene from that movie?
Heather – The lighthouse scene at the end.
Chad – The final confrontation.
3. Favorite actors/actresses?
Heather & Chad
Actors – Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith
Actresses – Jennifer Lawrence, Isla Fisher (Heather), and Mila Kunis (Chad)
4. Most annoying actor/actress?
Heather – Adam Sandler
This hasn’t always been the case. I really enjoy Sandler’s older movies, but his recent ones have all been pretty stupid.
Chad – Will Ferrell
This was an easy pick. This man makes Adam Sandler look like Leonardo DiCaprio.
5. Best director?
Heather & Chad
Christopher Nolan
I’M BATMAN! But not really. We’re not experts when it comes to directors, but we’ve really enjoyed most of his films.
6. Favorite guilty pleasure film?
Heather – 27 Dresses/Julie & Julia/Step Up 2: The Streets
There are plenty of other guilty pleasure films, but it would take forever to list them all.
Chad – Pokemon: The First Movie
I could watch this movie anytime. I know it’s a children’s movie, but I don’t care. Pokemon is awesome and Mewtwo is a boss.
7. Favorite tear jerker?
Heather & Chad
We usually avoid tear jerkers at all cost but some sneak in.
8. Character from a movie that scared you the most?
Heather – Mrs. Ganush from Drag Me to Hell
This woman gives me the creeps. Plus, she did everything that I’m terrified of. If you’ve seen the movie, it should make perfect sense. (I refuse to even look for a picture of her)
Chad – Not sure
I never really watched scary movies growing up. It wasn’t because I wasn’t allowed. I just never really found being scared all that enjoyable.
9. Movie you love but everyone hates?
Heather – Resident Evil
I know that not everyone hated this movie, but it’s certainly not most peoples’ favorite. However, I really enjoy this movie. It’s entertaining, even if it doesn’t follow the games at all.
Chad – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3
This movie gets a lot of hate, and looking back, it’s not a tremendously well made movie or anything. I watched it a lot as a kid, and it was the only movie in the trilogy that I had on VHS. Maybe I love it just because of the nostalgia, but either way, I really enjoy it.
10. Movie you hate but everyone loves?
Heather – Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
It was hard to pick one out for this one. Usually the movies I hate, others hate as well or they’re not well-known. But I’ve never understood the love for this movie. While I don’t hate it as much as other movies, I can’t stand the characters and some of the humor just isn’t funny to me.
Chad – Napoleon Dynamite
This movie came out while I was in middle school and everyone I knew was obsessed with it. Everyone thought it was hilarious. I didn’t. I absolutely detest this movie, and Pedro does not have my vote . . .
11. Favorite movie duo?
Heather & Chad
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost
Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World’s End, enough said.
12. Favorite animated movie?
Heather – Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron
This was another hard category to pick from, but this has always been a go-to movie for me. Any time I feel sad or stressed, I watch this and feel better. The soundtrack is amazing and just adds to everything else great about the movie.
Chad – Pokemon: The First Movie
I know this movie is already on here, but this category was a tough one for me. None of my favorite movies are animated, but this was the first big one that came to mind. I just love it.
13. Actor/actress crush?
Heather & Chad
Actor – Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith
Actress – Jennifer Lawrence and Mila Kunis
14. Favorite movie villain?
Heather – Magneto
Look how cute he is. 😀
Chad – Scar
Kills his brother, blames his nephew, becomes king. He also scores an additional +10 for his awesome song, “Be Prepared“.
15. What movie surprised you the most?
Heather – Monsters University
Honestly, I thought Pixar was just trying to milk more out of this franchise, and I went in expecting this movie to be a disaster. However, it was amazing. Almost better than the first one and that’s one of my favorite Pixar films.
Chad – Rango
Every trailer I saw for this made me think it would be just another animated kids’ movie. It’s much more than that, however. It’s now one of our go-to movies. The story is unique, and the entire movie is entertaining for both kids and adults alike.
16. If you could only keep one movie what would it be?
Heather – Cloud Atlas
Mainly because it’s three hours long and will keep me entertained for a while. Also because it’s such a great movie with six stories in one.
Chad – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
This is my favorite movie, and it’s a long one, so this would definitely be my pick.
17. Movie recommendation and for whom?
Heather – Guardians of the Galaxy
I would recommend this movie to anyone that hasn’t gotten into superheros or hasn’t watched any comic book movies. This is a great place to start because the “heroes” are very different from traditional comic book heroes like Superman or Batman.
Chad – Godzilla (2014)
I would, and often do, recommend this movie to everyone. It was just fantastic. It’s the only movie I’ve ever seriously considered paying to see a second time in theaters. This movie will be one we watch many, many times when it finally comes to DVD/Blu-Ray.
18. If you could go back in time and marry any actor/actress from back then (but are now old), who would it be?
Heather & Chad
Betty White
Because who wouldn’t want to marry her. . .
19. One remake you wish had never been made?
Heather & Chad
We know this isn’t technically a remake, but this movie should not exist. Chad and I grew up with Dragonball and Dragonball Z, so when we saw this, it was like we betrayed our childhood and the anime. Nobody should watch this movie.
20. You’re about to die but could only watch one more movie, what would it be?
Heather & Chad
That’ll never happen because we’re invincible!
21. Favorite movie genre/favorite movie from that genre?
Heather & Chad
Can’t pick, won’t pick. We love all types of genres (besides horror).
22. What’s the first movie you remember watching in theaters?
Heather & Chad
The only way to get the special promotional items was to go to the theaters, so you better believe we begged to go.
I tag anyone that would like to do this. If you do, make sure to let me know so I can check out your answers.
Love The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. It is practically the only Western movie I remember from childhood and will never get tired of watching. I also saw the Guardians of The Galaxy and agree that it’s a great movie for anyone and especially those who may not be interested in superhero type of movies–it definitely exceeded my expectations. Great post–I enjoyed reading!
I know exactly what you mean about The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. I watched it for the first time this year, and it surprised me how much I enjoyed it. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it either. I’m really excited that there’s going to be a Guardians of The Galaxy sequel coming out.
Thanks for reading and commenting!
You’re welcome–I am excited as well for the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel! After watching the movie, I have become an instant fan and can’t wait for the next movie 🙂
I know, me too! I’m not sure if I will be able to wait until 2017 though. It’s so far away, haha.
