1. My movie genre?

HORROR it is!! Get a flavour of "Evil Dead", spice it with a lil' "Freddy vs Jason", sauce it with some "The Candyman I&II", then add a nice pretty chunk of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Hostel" and also "Dusk till Dawn", and what do we have. . .?

You are damn right, a fcukin' HORROR movie!!!

6.On the other hand, i also like epics, u know, historicals e.g. Gladiator, Braveheart

2. But after horrors, i'm heavily into Sci-Fi/Fantasy (do i see any Star Wars fans in the hizzouse?)

5. drama i also dig, especially autobiographies, some true-life sh*t e.g. Malcolm X, Antwoine Fisher .

3. Actions movies? The Bleep yeah!! As far as u kick ass and spill blood (with a good storyline though), i'm down!

4. Comedy? Aight, but has to be something to really make me laugh, as in hard. Luvin' them "Scary Movie" flicks.

Romance? The Bleep No!! i can't touch it with a bleeping 50 foot pole. They are all sappy, shitty, yukky and irritating. No wonder i hate that "Diego and Paloma/ The Gardener's Daughter/ All About Camila" Bullshit.

GIVE ME ADVENTURE, ACTION AND THRILLER ANY DAY AND SOMETIMES COMEDY WHEN IM IN DA MOOD. BUT I TELL YOU ACTION ADVENTURE IS DA BOMB (remeber Indiana Jones, King solomons mines, Lord of the rings, Conan, Troy, Gladiator etc)

Lord Of The Rings is Fantasy not Action like Harry Potter.
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Nobody: 10:13am On Dec 08, 2006
@Thief of hearts

Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by ronnieslimz(f): 11:37am On Dec 08, 2006

Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Eurphoria(f): 12:21pm On Dec 08, 2006
psychological thrillers and Romcoms
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by ronnieslimz(f): 3:18pm On Dec 08, 2006

Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by ThiefOfHearts(f): 4:32pm On Dec 08, 2006
salsera, comprehension is your friend. embrace it.

My sentence MEANT LIKE Harry Potter, LOTR is Fantasy. Get it now?
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Nobody: 6:02pm On Dec 08, 2006
@thief of hearts

you said it yourself, comprehension.

A comma after ACTION would have done the trick
smiley

question: if romcom is short form for romantic comedies then what's ' sitcom ' short for?
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Genial(m): 6:05pm On Dec 08, 2006
Sit-up comedies?
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Seun(m): 6:17pm On Dec 08, 2006
Situational comedies!
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Genial(m): 6:21pm On Dec 08, 2006

Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by eslynera(f): 7:52pm On Dec 08, 2006

Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Seun(m): 8:29am On Dec 09, 2006
What's a "thriller and how come you guys prefer thrillers to action movies?
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Eurphoria(f): 3:40pm On Dec 09, 2006
thrillers for me get you thinking and your mind racing . Keeps you on the edge of your seat . Thats my take seun
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by ThoniaSlim(f): 4:32pm On Dec 09, 2006
Romance,thrillers,horror,comedy,mystery and drama
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Nobody: 4:43pm On Dec 09, 2006
I actually like the 'sit-up comedy' definition grin

Anyways , Seun maybe more people prefer thrillers to action films because there's brawn with a lot of intellect.

At least that's my reason

even though I think i preferred action when i was a child probably because I got lost with the intrigue of thrillers
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Eurphoria(f): 5:40pm On Dec 09, 2006
yeah and i don't think they do action like they used to, these days they are either action thrillers, or some sort of edge to it. I dont know that's what i have notices maybe they still make those pure action loud bish bash bang bang blast from start to finish? dunno. Nah not like before.
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by toptho(f): 7:06pm On Dec 09, 2006
I usually like romantic comedies.Can't watch horrors for love or money!!!!!
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Nobody: 6:35pm On Dec 10, 2006
@euphoria

when I saw the word bish bish, kai it brought back memories

Notice how popular Arnold Swarzy films were then, even Rambo or was it ROCKY

now for those sort of films to sell now there has to be a 'correct' motive

Hey seun, did you include animation?

I love feature length animation films e.g Lion King and Ice Age
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by Eurphoria(f): 7:23pm On Dec 10, 2006
smiley yeah love animation too
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by gbadex1(m): 10:47pm On Dec 10, 2006
One of the best animations till this very day is "Final Fantasy: Advent Children". Movies like that are so rare, and it's a wonder many haven't seen it.

Apart from that my favorite's are animés/mangas. One of my best? Ninja Scroll!!! some blood spilling there was in that animé. Another favorite is "Fist Of The North Star". and then my all-time feel good animé, "Samurai X" (though kenshi pisses me off once in a while). funny enough, i haven't seen Naruto, though among my animé crazed friends, it's a favorite.
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by ThiefOfHearts(f): 10:53pm On Dec 10, 2006
Fist Of The North Star is good. cool
Re: Your Favorite Movie Genres? by gbadex1(m): 11:05pm On Dec 10, 2006
yep, it sure is. Then there's "Vampire Hunter D". Though the storyline's played out, it waz still good.

hehe. . .when i was younger, used ta dig pokemon, then elevated to digimon but me don't do them anymore. Then, there used to be Samurai Showdown wit Hamaru and co.

Animes can also be classified as action movies, thrillers, fantasies, or romantic comedies!
