As for me, like with books, I lean almost completely to non-fiction or very well-written true to life stuff. I don't know, I feel lied to or like I'm wasting my time with unrealistic non-fiction and fantasy stuff. The only type of imagination type stuff that I like is cool futuristic scenario stuff or it has to be hilarious to look past the fact that it's very unrealistic.
Let's see, the last movie that I watched from my Netflix que was Ghost World which was today. I've seen that movie once before, but I find it funny and it reminds me of the high jinx stuff that my then best friend and I used to pull when we were bored as teens.
Looking at my que, from the movies that I picked - I like a lot of stand-up comedy (Chris Rock is my fave, George Lopez, Gabriel Iglesias, Wanda Sykes...) One of Ellen Degeneres stand-up is next. I've never seen her stand-up before, has anyone here? If it sucks, please warn me so that I don't waste my time and movie.
I watched the Best of Comedy Central (2007) and it freaken sucked!!! I had to skip over all of the "comedians" besides 1 maybe 2 it sucked so bad!!! And I thought Dane Cook was supposed to be funny - ?? He's an idiot! I saw a lot of theatrics, but no real funny substance. The ONLY guy that I liked out of the whole thing was Jim Gaffigan, who I've never heard of before. And Carlos Mencia was mediocre.
I also like a lot of documentaries, old movies and foreign films. Not cheesy foreign films, but interesting ones that have to be really good and catch my attention to look past having to read subtitles. I like stuff like La Vita e Bella (Life is Beautiful), Amores Perros, Midaq Alley, etc.
Some of the movies I would like to see are Milk, The Reader and The Wrestler. Anyone see those yet? Liked/disliked?
Alright, enough of my rambling (I can't sleep right now), what kind of movies do you guys/ladies like?
