Some of My Favorite ~Movies~

Hello, hello! So, I thought it would be fun to share with you all some of my favorite movies from some different genres. These are just in alphabetical order.

1. Action
Okay.  Action movies are my absolute FAVORITE!!  I can't think of just one that tops them all (besides LOTR for all movies, but I have that in Fantasy:)), but some of my favorites are; The Bourne movies, the Mission Impossible movies, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Superhero movies, The A-Team, and a bunch of others that I can't think of right now, but you get the idea. :)


2. Animation
Okay, this is so hard.  There are so many animated films I love!  But some of my favorites are; Pixar movies (minus Brave), Robin Hood, Cinderella, Tangled, Big Hero 6, Peter Pan, The Croods, and more.  One animation that I cried at that I did not know that I would was, Tinker Bell and the Legend of the Neverbeast.  That ending...sniff.

3. Comedy
My least favorite genre.  Comedy.  Don't get me wrong, I love to laugh!  But these kinds of movies aren't my particular favorite.  I watch them once in a blue moon (except for Elf, but I'm kind of burned out with that one), unlike action that I can watch every day.  So, a comedy I like would have to be, any of the Tim Hawkins movies.  I know, I know, it isn't a "movie," but they are my favorite none the less! :)  He's so funny!

4. Drama
Hmmm...well one I really like is Hugo. That movie is so cute and sweet.  I just love it. <3  Otherwise, I can't really think of anything else.  Apparently I don't watch a lot of dramas. :)

5. Fantasy
THE LORD OF THE RINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!  No you don't understand, these are my FAVORITE movies of ALL TIME!!!!!  And they always shall be.  I just LOVE them!! *happy sigh*  Best. Movies. Ever.  That's all.

6. Horror
Um...I'm not much for horror unless its the old kind.  I find them kinda funny.  So, with that being said my favorites are The House On Haunted Hill (1959) with Vincent Price, The Mummy (both new and old, but I don't find them scary), and I liked The Invasion of the Body Snatchers(I watched both, but I like the one from 1956 the best).  It's so creepy!

7. Musical
I LOVE musicals!  Well, I just love music in general.  My current favorite musical would have to be, La La Land.  It was WONDERFUL!!!  Very classic.  The music, dancing, outfits, everything.  If you haven't seen it I HIGHLY recommend it!!  Kind of interesting, but extremely cool, Ryan Gosling actually plays the piano in all of the parts!  It's amazing!!  And my other well loved favorite is of course, The Phantom of the Opera.  I have always loved it ever since I was little and I always shall. <3

8. Mystery
My favorite mystery would have to be Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downy Jr. I like the first one the very best, the second one isn't my favorite.  Another fun mystery I liked and has a fun story for the first time I saw it, would be Nancy Drew from 2007.  Surprisingly, they consider it a comedy.  Huh.  Interesting.  Moving on, you want to hear the story of the first time I saw it?  Okay, here it is.

It was my sister, Madison's 10th birthday and she wanted to have a sleepover with our friends.  The movie was, of course, Nancy Drew.  So here we are a bunch of girls 8 to 10 years of age piled in the family room with snacks, blankets and pillows(lucky me got a whole couch to myself!:)).  The room is dark except for the movie playing...we are at a darker part when all of a sudden we hear a noise and someone comes into the room.  They all freak out, I don't particularly remember freaking out, but they all did!  And into the room walks...one of the girls.  She had gone to the bathroom and flushed the toilet and freaked the other girls out.  I like to look back on that fun slumber party and remember the flush of the toilet and staying up way to late.  XD

9. Romance
Ah...yes, romance.  Again, I don't know if I have a sole "favorite," but some of my favorites would have to be Pride and Prejudice(both 1995 and 2005), While You Were Sleeping, You've Got Mail, and others I can't think of right now.  I seem to read more romance books than watch romance movies. *shrugs*

10. Science fiction
It would have to be, Rouge One.  Sniff.  I just LOVED that movie!  I don't know how Star Wars will ever top it.  It was creative, original, and just awesome!!  I even liked Jyn.  You know, I'm not the biggest fan of Rey, shoot, I am not the biggest fan of female leads in general.  So I was kind of concerned about Jyn since I didn't really like Rey.  But she was great, I especially liked that she isn't the "main character."  I felt like they divided up the time pretty equally and didn't focus solely on her.  Which I appreciate!  I must add in I also love the Star Trek movies. Particularly the newer one from 2009.

11. Western
I actually really liked The Magnificent 7.  Another western I like is Tombstone from 1993.  My favorite thing about westerns besides the action is the facial hair!  <3

Well that is all for some of my favorite movies!!  Until next time~Morgan
