Because I'm bored I did this little inquiry for me :--D You can answer the questions in you comment too!


Do you watch movies a lot?
What kind of movies are you interested in?
Are there some classics you never get bored with?
Which movies did you find boring or stupid?
Who are your favourite actors?
Do you prefer cinema or home to watch films?


I love movies but I find myself as an average movie consumer. Sometimes I watch a lot of movies but there are periods when I don't watch 'em at all, I don't know why.

I like animated movies and I'm impatient to see Pixar's new film UP 8---) Somehow Bolt didn't convice me, maybe I expected too much after seeing WALL-E. Hayao Miyazaki's animated movies are my favourite too because there is no good and evil, but just people with different needs and personalities. His films are so well done and beautiful ;__;

In addition to animations I also like fictional movies like Chocolat, Pirates of the Caribbean and Spiderman and movies based on true events like the Finnish Röoperi. A good movie has an interesting, consistent and surprising storyline and no predictable events. Action and suspension are essentials but I hate anxiety, bloodpath and offencive violence, that's why I don't like horror movies at all. They're too scary! I think that movies that take more than one time to understand completely are often the best ones. For instance Princess Mononoke and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. I didn't get the theirs plot at the first time :'---D. I also like drama movies like Amélie, Gilbert Grape, the Da Vinci Code, Marie Antoinette and Edward Scissorhands.

There is no doubt! Lion King is an absolute classic for me, it always amazes me with its music, characters, plot, finesse and animation.

I already mentioned that I don't like horror. Moreover I don't like comedy with bad actors or wannabe comedy or over attempted comedy. Examples: Scary Movie, Dr. Dolittle, Daddy day care... BUT Liar Liar is hilarious because Jim Carrey is a very talented actor. Non-comedy movies that just suck are Indiana Jones and High School Musical. I just can't stand them maybe because they are so clichéish and sappy. A movie that surprised me in a positive way was Confessions of a Shopaholic, yay go Finland!

My favourite actors are Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks, Audrey Tautou, Tobey Maguire, Rupert Grint, Tom Felton, America Ferrara. They're so cool! :------) Finnish actors: Maija-Liisa Peuhu, Minttu Mustakallio, Jarkko Tamminen (voice actor), Antti Pääkkönen (voice actor).

I think cinema is the best place to watch movies but I don't like to queue to get the best places in the theatre if the film is popular (like Harry Potter next week). I also like the cinema's feeling: you are there just to watch the movie in big screen and then the smell of popcorns and everything. It has it's own atmosphere there. Plus the sound is better in dolby whatever digital surround technique. At home it is fun to watch films that you're already seen in big screen and of course some worn out movies they show on tv.
