My favorite movie evah: "Back to the Future." Like, WHOA. As near a perfect example of storytelling, characterization, detail, and whimsy that ever existed onscreen.
Movie that I own that makes people go "Hmm ...": "Who's That Girl?" Originally purchased to stare at Griffin Dunne for 90 minutes, it turns out it's actually clever dialogue and decent cheesy acting.
Movie I own below an NC-17 rating that I would disavow if ever the fire department had to hack their way into my place and recover my stuff: "Midnight Madness." This 1979 (1980?) Disney romp features Michael J. Fox, looking about 12, as the younger brother of David Naughton, still riding high off "An American Werewolf in London," leading one of many teams sent on an all-night scavengar hunt across Los Angeles. (Which reminds me, I must watch this again sometime.)
Movie I have owned the longest which I have not yet watched: It's a tossup between "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and the Paula Abdul workout video. Which will be breached first? (Oh Paula, you're no Jack Davenport ...)
Movie I privately don't like very much that the rest of the world seems to adore but that I still own: "Fast Times at Ridgemont High." See, I just don't get it - maybe when I was 12 and Mom wouldn't let me watch sexy-type stuff. I think Cameron Crowe's later stuff kicks much better ass.
Movie I own which I think had the most practical jokes going on behind the scenes: "Star Trek: First Contact." C'mon! You have the omnipresent long-running Prank War between Jonathan Frakes and Brent Spiner, and for good measure there's Dwight "Howlin' Mad Murdock" Schultz. The set was rife with hijinks!
Best animated movie in the world not made by the Japanese: It's a tie between "The Sword in the Stone" and "Robin Hood," both by Disney in the mid-1970s. "Sword" has the slightly-winning distinction of not having the obligatory Magic Kingdom Love Story(TM), but how can I deny the appeal of the "Prince John" song to the current political climate?
Honorable TV Mention: Best TV series for home video: "Dead Like Me." Either season. Mason is disturbing, George is an Everywoman for the ages, and Rube is my Showtime Boyfriend(TM).
