A little curiosity satisfying survey...
Faves My favorite bands are Smashing Pumpkins, Kill Hannah, Thirty Seconds to Mars, and Kylie Minogue. I like all genres... mostly alternative/rock, but it all depends on my mood. Favorite movies are Jay and Silent Bob series, Godfather trilogy, and Walk to Remember. Favorite books, I don't really read that much, but probably Walk to Remember.
This life has been a test. If it had been an actual life, you would have received actual instructions on where to go and what to do.

"Oh, just say the word and she's a footnote in history. I'll make it look like a painful accident..."
As a reward for your confession, I will tell you that I went to the No Doubt/Garbage concert tonight and it was awesome!! The two negative things: bar chick seated in front of me (ugh) and the beer was served in plastic cups, which I can live with, but I found it unexcusably tacky for the two people seated in the next row to put on the soda cup lids and insert straws into the clear plastic beer cups. My boyfriend said that the only time you are allowed to drink beer through a straw is if you are wearing one of those beer hats OR if you are physically incapacitated i.e. your jaw was wired shut, both your arms are in traction, etc. Everyone else at the concert was okay in my book.
 Woo-Hoo!! CandyGirl, I forgot to mention Garbage as one of my other faves...I cannot BELIEVE how envious of you I am at the moment. The both of 'em to gether?? I bet that was a great show. Killer energy.....  I'm starting to sound all teeny-boppy, even to my own ears...Oh well, it's Friday. And I'm low on coffee -"Oh, just say the word and she's a footnote in history. I'll make it look like a painful accident..."

Wow, katy. You and I have a lot of faves in common!
Bands: Too many to try and name. I'm a huge fan of soundtracks because I can get lots of different artists on one cd. Fave soundtracks: Buffy, Buffy musical, Newsies, Save the Last Dance, Coyote Ugly, the Cutting Edge....you get the picture. Music: Anything except for rap and country, and I even like the rare rap song and then even more rare country song. I'm a sucker for pop (yes, I like NSync), but my general tastes lean more in the rock range. Films: see http://www.mscl.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=796 Books: Stephen King, Madeleine L'Engle, Harry Potter, Animorphs (I love kids books), any Buffy novels by Nancy Holder or Christopher Golden, Barbara Michaels, Jane Austen....the list goes on (hey! my family owns a bookstore, so sue me!) TV: Buffy, Angel, MSCL, Firefly, John Doe (though I keep missing it lately--I'm gonna have to catch it in reruns over the holidays), CSI, Will and Grace, Friends (I've only recently started watching the latter 2 on evening reruns and I'm addicted).... Tracey I mock you with my monkey pants.
My favoritesMusic: The Who, Lynyrd Skynyrd
Movies: Anything by Cameron Crowe, John Hughes Books: Most of the books I read are on The Who, Skynyrd, or the Simpsons I always loved Cameron Crowe - but when I watched Jerry Maguire's director commentary and I found out about how he had an homage to MS-CL I about died. Plus Winnie was in the movie! Tracey, I was actually thinking that when I read your movies list...hey, anyone with a Christian Bale obsession is good in my book. I'd have to add Swing Kids and Much Ado about Nothing to your list... And in response to your signature (from Surprise): L'hippo a pique' ses pantalons. ...'cause "all monkeys are French. You didn't know that?" Hehe. I love Oz! Such a great Willow/Oz exchange!
Yeah, Swing Kids woulda been on there but I couldn't really find a place for it. Much Ado About Nothing is an excellent movie as well, even if it's Robert Sean Leonard instead of Christian Bale. =) Plus I'm a sucker for Shakespeare stuff (except for the Mel Gibson Hamlet -- yuck). In the CB department, I'm also a big fan of Midsummer Night's Dream (and, you know, Shakespeare is a plus), Prince of Jutland (AKA Royal Deceit, which, oddly enough is based on the same myth as Hamlet), and Shaft (even if he is the bad guy). I have yet to see American Psycho....I'm afraid his image may never recover if I do.
Tracey I mock you with my monkey pants.
FavoritesFor anyone who wants to know just for fun, these are my likes:
Bands .Radiohead. Buffalo Tom. Coldplay. Butthole Surfers. Rancid. Common Rider. Ataris. Movies .Army of Darkness. Willow. Romeo+Juliet. Crouching Tiger. Clerks. Princess Mononoke. Books .Another Roadside Attraction. American Gods. The Archaic Revival. Dark Tower Series. Illusions. Back to Save the Universe. Siddhartha. Dante's Inferno. Peace+Love Whatever happens, happens.
It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order though. Yeah...so you like Christian Bale? Don't see Reign of Fire. Bad.
I would have to agree on that. I never was a Bret Easton Ellis fan. I much prefer Dennis Cooper over him. I have never been able to get too far into one of his books, they bore me to tears. Who is onlineUsers browsing this forum: No registered users and 10 guests |
