Seattle is experiencing a snow storm today. I don't have to be anywhere until 7:15 pm. They've pre-empted "Ellen", so what to do? A movie meme. This one challenged my memory, as I'm not a big film-goer; and though, I own a lot of DVD's, most remain unopened in their packages:) Here are my answers:

1. Name a movie that you have seen more than 10 times: The Sound of Music, Wizard of Oz, Victor/Victoria, Soapdish, Singing in the Rain, White Christmas.
2. Name a movie that you've seen multiple times in a theatre: The Sound of Music, Victor/Victoria
3. Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a movie: George Clooney
4. Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a movie: Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson
5. Name a movie that you can quote from: None .. I'm not interested in filling my head with movie lines.
6. Name a movie musical that you know all the lyrics to all the songs: Again, I don't pay that kind of attention ... I suppose I could sing many of the lyrics to Sound of Music or Victor/Victoria
7. Name a movie that you have been known to sing along with: None
8. Name a movie that you would recommend everyone see: Sordid Lives, Strictly Ballroom
9. Name an unusual movie that you own: Can't think of one that anyone would call "unusual". Perhaps, The Triplets of Belleville?
10. Name an actor that launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops: Oprah Winfrey, Lily Tomlin
11. Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in?: All the time, when I was a child
12. Ever made out in a movie?: Sure .. even a bit more
13. Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven't gotten around to it: Gone with the Wind
14. Ever walked out of a movie?: Yes. Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Also, wanted to walk out of the second Austin Powers film
15. Name a movie that made you cry: Ordinary People
16. Popcorn?: Yes, with lots of butter and popcorn salt
17. How often do you go to the movies?: About once a quarter
18. What's the last movie you saw in the theater?: Mama Mia

Where is "It's a Wonderful Life?" ;-)

[mrdreamjeans.livejournal.com]

I've never seen it:)

[billeyler.livejournal.com]

I'm stunned. Just stunned. How is it possible that this could have happened. Rhetorical question only.

The Triplets of Belleville is surely a unusual but very interesting French animation film.

You haven't seen Gone With The Wind? Turn in your gay card PRONTO! ha, ha.

[mrdreamjeans.livejournal.com]

Nor, half of the all time favorite movies .. Never seen Casablanca, most of the Godfather movies, A Streetcar Named Desire ... I know, I know:)

I am in shock about you not seeing Gone with the Wind as well. Have you at least seen the Went With the Wind parody on the Carol Burnett Show?

[mrdreamjeans.livejournal.com]

But, of course ... I never missed Carol Burnett:)

Oh yeah!

Those are great choices, Neil. "Sordid Lives" was absolutely hiliarious, of course my interest piqued because of Beau Bridges' presence! WOOF!!!!!

Re: Oh yeah!

[mrdreamjeans.livejournal.com]

Of course, you like Beau Bridges:) My favorite character is the auntie who is always trying to stop smoking ...

Sordid Lives is a great flick... did we have this conversation? The television series is equally as wacky, but is, IMHO, uneven. And yes, I admit, I stole a couple of your answers in my Movie Meme post. Hugs!

I haven't seen the television series yet, but I loved the movie. Even though the characters are over the top, they are truthful and thus identifiable and funny. I'll check out your Movie Meme!

HUGS!
