Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] darkling1:
1. Total Number of Films that I own: Gosh, no way to really count. On DVD, I'd say in the 30-40 range, including what's in our drawers at the apartment and random ones that are on loan or at my parents' house. On VHS it is impossible to count. I say this because all VHS movies given to me before college are at home and thus part of general circulation. My parents' collection, including movies taped off HBO numbers in the 400-500 range. With DVDs, 600+. So, of that, I'd say I have another 100 someodd, bringing me (with only legal movies) to 140 max.

2. Last Film I bought: For myself, Blade: Trinity, though due to some technical difficulties online, Sliding Doors arrived at the same time. Blade: Trinity was the one purchased the latest. Otherwise, I bought Tod Browning's Freaks and The Exorcist for my mother for Mother's Day (she has good taste, I must say).

3. Last Film I watched: In the theater, House of Wax. At home, hrmmm, trying to remember. If a repeat viewing doesn't count, the last one I watched was Van Wilder. If repeat viewing does count, The Amityville Horror. Man, I'm sensing a theme here...

4. Five Films I watch a lot or mean a lot to me: Fortunately, this is basically the same thing because I'm a lunatic who obsesses. So, the films that most engross me would probably have to be...

1. The Matrix (duh)
2. Star Wars: A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, The Return of the Jedi (those only count as one because I never watched them separately when I was growing up)
3. Sleeping Beauty
4. Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer
5. The Crow

5. Five people to do this meme: Hrm, [livejournal.com profile] viridian, [livejournal.com profile] feiran, [livejournal.com profile] xannoside, [livejournal.com profile] friendofsnarf, and [livejournal.com profile] infosatyr

You bought Freaks for your mother?!?

Wow.

This is the 1930 movie, right?

Mm-huh. I tried to get her the old black-and-white "The Blob," but wasn't able to find it in time. My mom's taste is surprising, even to me at times. "Freaks" seemed to be one she'd like. She of the 'look! I got 15 $1-DVDs at Walmart' shopping...some real winners in those...

That's kind of cool of your mom, actually.

I was surprised, though. Last time I read about Freaks was in a list of "Movies to Take Your Date to if You Want Her to Think You're a Serial Killer."

...but it's such a romantic movie, really! The clown and the seal girl? And revenge! Revenge without warning on the swindlers! Romance triumphs over attempted murder! How much more date-movie could you get?
