Cheddar X and Movies
This week's focuses on movies as a theme and I think we should skip the previews and dive right into the goodness that is the Cheddar X.
From Chewie,
1. What's your favorite/least favorite movie?
Favorite movies are hard to choose, I have several but I'm partial to LA Confidential, A Far Off Place and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Least favorite movie I've seen or just least favorite movie? Least favorite I've seen has got to be either Posse (the Mario van Peebles crap western) or From Dusk til Dawn. Least favorite I've not seen, anything with Barney or Hugh Grant in it and I'm not overly fond of anything with Madonna in it either, she can't act and is kind of hideous on a big screen.
2. What's the best movie-adaptation of a book?
Easy, A Far Off Place, even though they did a gender switch on the two main characters it was still excellent.
3. What movie makes you cry?
Cry? What's that?
4. What movie do you watch to cheer you up?
80's crap like Sixteen Candles or The Breakfast Club are good. The Road Warrior for entirely different reasons and Breakfast at Tiffany's because Audrey Hepburn is truly stunningly gorgeous in it and looking at beautiful women always tends to cheer me up.
5. Any amusing stories involving movies or the movie theater?
Only one that comes to mind is when we snuck a fifth of Captain Morgan into the dollar theatre, we each bought a huge Coke, drank some and topped it off with rum. After the bottle was empty it accidentally got knocked on its side and rolled (LOUDLY) all the way to the front while we all giggled like idiots.
6. Would you rather go to the theater or stay home and watch a movie?
The theater is alright but the sound system at home is better and I can pause it when I need to take a potty break or make more popcorn. Now all I need is one of those 16:9 letterbox style plasma screens and I'm all set.
7. Are you more awed by a good plot or special effects?
Special effects are cool but if the story sucks then what's the point?
8. Who is your favorite/least favorite actor/actress?
Favorite actor: Kevin Spacey or Guy Pearce (though he SUCKED in The Count of Monte Christo)
Favorite actress: Audrey Hepburn
Least favorite actor: Hugh Grant
Least favorite actress: Madonna
From me,
9. What's your favorite cult movie?
The Road Warrior, Repo Man and Office Space.
From Joey,
10. Matrix Revolutions, worth the wait or WTF?
I guess it was worth the wait because I've not seen it yet and likely won't as my lovely wife hasn't even stayed awake through the first one yet. But all reviews have been that they should have stopped at The Matrix and left the other two as daydreams.
That was fun, I liked this week's questions. We'll have a week of normal Cheddar and then we're back to themes. Anyone got a new one to suggest? I'm leaning towards a set of questions answered with song titles by your favorite band (idea stolen from intellectual properties who borrowed it from somewhere else in the blogosphere). Got an idea? Head over to the and post it on the tag board or in the comments.
