A Film Meme

Ceri at Not in the Pink tagged me for this fun meme.

* Name a film that you have seen more than 10 times.
Walt Disney's The Little Mermaid and The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning. My 6-year-old daughter never get tired of watching those, and the same goes to Barney & Friends. We have a few VCD collections of the latter.

* Name a film that you’ve seen multiple times in the cinema.
I only watch a film once in the cinema, no matter how much I like it. I would rather use that money to buy the DVD.

* Name an actor that would make you more inclined to see a film.
John Cusack.

* Name an actor that would make you less likely to see a film.
Jim Carrey. (After I have typed my reply, it then struck me that Jim share the same initials as John, haha.)

* Name a film that you can and do quote from.
Oh no. I'm bad at memorising quotes.

* Name a film musical that you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs.
I rarely watch film musicals so I can't think of any.

* Name a film that you would recommend everyone to see.
Spirited Away. I love this Japanese animation! Great plot and great imagination!

* Ever walked out of a film?
No, I always try to watch till the end. I hate not knowing what happened, even though if I don't like the film.

* Name a film that made you cry in the cinema.
I know this may sound corny, but watching Jack and Rose profess their love to each other while struggling to stay alive on a sinking ship made me teary-eyed. (Titanic)

* How often do you go to the cinema (as opposed to renting them or watching them at home)?
Sadly, I rarely go to the cinemas nowadays (due to family obligations) but I do go once in a while if I want to watch the film badly. I watch more DVDs as compared to catching the films in cinemas as it is cheaper and convenient (not to mention more comfortable at home).

* What’s the last film you saw in the cinema?
Avatar in 2D.

* What’s your favourite/preferred genre of film?
I have no preference. I will watch anything as long as they piqued my interest.

* What’s the first film you remember seeing in the cinema?
Wow, that sounds like a long time to me, haha. Seriously, I have no memory of the first film I saw in the cinema.

* What film do you wish you had never seen?
Hmm...that's a hard one! Maybe My Bloody Valentine in 3D. Yikes!

* What is the scariest film you’ve seen?
Ring (Japanese version) and Shutter (Thai). Don't watch them when you are alone!

* If you could be any character portrayed in a movie, who would it be?
Ah... so many choices. I love reading butt-kicking heroines in books so maybe Lara Croft will be it.

* Last film you bought.
(500) Days of Summer. I loved this movie!

* Last film you watched.
Avatar in the cinema, and (500) Days of Summer in DVD.

* Five films that mean a lot to you.
~ Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs - Just because this is the very first movie my daughter watched in the cinema.

~ Spirited Away - I love this animation so much that I will never get tired of watching it.

~ All About Love (再说一次我爱你)

~ Clash of the Titans (Not the latest one but the original released in 1981. I was merely a child then and I remember I was so mesmerised by the story and the effects! I was so happy to be able to find the DVD last month!)

~ Harry Potter (the series that got me hooked to the books!)

I am not going to tag anyone but please feel free to tag yourself if you are keen to play!
