[spectrumtacular]

2, 11, 13, 16, 21, 31, 34, and 40 for the movie asks?

2. what movie do you wish you could unwatch?

Cheech & Chong's The Corsican Brothers, which. It's bad. It's just so bad. I don't find Cheech and Chong all that funny in general but even by their standards Jesus CHRIST it was bad. Terminally unfunny and not even in a stoner comedy way??? Why would The Stoner Comedy Guys(TM) make a swashbuckling farce!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They're only remotely funny in a stoner comedy way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11. a genre you just can’t stand

Hmmmmmmm I do have favourites in every genre, but in terms of subgenres I absolutely cannot stand wagon train movies, I actively hope the pioneers get murdered by the Apache or whatever but alas they never do :(

13. do you have a favorite film in another language?

Oh yeah loads!! Too many to pick just one, so I'm gonna give you one of each language represented in my favourites list on Letterboxd: Divorce Italian Style (Italian), The Wages of Fear (French), Seven Samurai (Japanese), Viy (Russian), Aguirre, the Wrath of God (German), Searchers (Inuktitut), Fist of Fury (Cantonese), Nostalgia for the Light (Spanish), Son of Saul (Hungarian), Waltz With Bashir (Hebrew), City of God (Portuguese)

16. favorite book to film adaptation?

Dracula: Pages From a Virgin's Diary, the most balls to the walls yet oddly book accurate Dracula movie ever conceived. Guy Maddin the director that you are...

21. favorite animated film?

I'm gonna go with a handful of my favourite NFB animated shorts for this one, as I'm broadly obsessed with the NFB: Gloria Victoria, Blackfly, Lumaajuuq, Begone Dull Care, The Log Driver's Waltz, and The Cat Came Back!

31. do you remember the first movie you saw in theaters?

The first movie I ever saw in theatres is allegedly The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and I have NO memory of this experience.

34. which film is the most visually beautiful?

Lawrence of Arabia has the most stunning landscapes, Murnau's Faust has the most breathtaking tableaus, and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes has Marilyn Monroe in the orange dress. Okay that last one was a joke but I'm dead serious about the first two.

40. a film you think everyone should see at least once

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!!!! Score of all time, editing of all time, climax of all time, western of all time, movie of all time!!!
