Spam? Damn it
I got the following email message:
Hey,
I saw your journal on livejournal, you are hot! I thought I say hi. do you
have any more pictures?
If you would like to see a picture of me, I have one on my page at
[URL to a weird hive site] username is skiplool. Hope to talk to you soon..
bye
I almost thought it might be real, until I realized: the only pictures on my LJ are of my cat and Nathan Fillion. And the site's pretty much an adult chat type thing. Alas.
On another note, I watched The Blair Witch Project on FX tonight. First time I'd watched it since seeing it in the theatre. While I'm not as freaked out as I was the first time (where I had to sleep with my lights on for a week), I'm mildly uneasy. That movie is some scary shit. I dunno why it gets me so bad, but it does.
Movie meme
1. First movie you ever saw in the theatre: The first movie I absolutely remember seeing is Star Wars, at a drive in when I was five years old.
2. Favorite movie as a kid: I think my first movie obsession was E.T. I saved my allowance and bought every magazine I could find that mentioned it.
3. Movie you have seen the most times: In the theatre? Rocky Horror Picture Show. Ever? Hrm. Probably Much Ado About Nothing.
4. Biggest movie star crush as a kid: It's a toss up. Either Henry Thomas (the kid in E.T.), or Mark Hamill. It's embarrassing how much of Return of the Jedi I spent swooning.
5. Favorite 80's teen movie: Not so much for 80s teen movies, if you mean of the John Hughes variety. So probably, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.
6. Favorite song from a movie: Now this is embarrassing. Probably "Jukejoint Jezebel" by KMFDM, from, of all things, Mortal Kombat.
7. Favorite love romance movie: Okay, I dunno who wrote this little meme, but isn't "love romance movie" a little redundant? Argh. So, yeah. Much Ado About Nothing, definitely. Just writing about it makes me want to go watch it again.
8. Favorite horror movie: Perhaps surprisingly, not so much into horror movies. Books yes. Movies tend to lose their rewatching value for me. Can't think of one.
9. Favorite drama: Decisions, decisions... I'll go with Fellowship of the Ring. Screw the genre trappings, it counts as drama.
10. Favorite sci-fi movie: Contact.
11. Favorite musical movie: This, perhaps not so surprisingly, is a toss up category: Moulin Rouge, Singin' in the Rain, or The Court Jester.
12. Favorite comedy movie: A Christmas Story
13. Favorite action movie: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
14. Movie that scared you as a child: The Shining. I only saw the previews as a kid and they gave me nightmares.
15. Movie that makes you cry everytime you see it: Last of the Mohicans. Like a big old baby.
16. Worst movie you ever saw: Anything with Adam Sandler in it.
17. Movie you walked out on in the theatre cause it was so bad: Ishtar
18. Most sexual movie you ever saw (NON PORN): Kenneth Branagh's version of Othello, not because there are rampant sex scenes or anything, but just from the sheer heat generated by the cast.
19. Most disturbing movie you ever saw: Kids
20. Movie that supposedly sucks but you love it: Oh god. The Pirate Movie. Shut up. Also, Cutthroat Island. I apparently have a thing for pirates.
21. Favorite actors: Pretty much the whole cast of LOTR, Kenneth Branagh, Gene Kelly, Kevin Kline, Ewan McGregor
22. Favorite actresses: Nicole Kidman, Emma Thompson
23. Favorite porn star: Seriously, who wrote this? Ugh. No, sorry, no favorite silicone-enhanced "actress" or "actor" here.
24. Favorite sex scene from a movie (NON PORN): The non-porn emphasis, really not necessary. The Romeo and Juliet reciting scene from Shakespeare in Love.
25. Movie you wanted to see the most as a child but were not allowed to: Can't think of one I really wanted to see and couldn't.
26. Sexiest movie star of all time MALE: Serious toss-up here. Classic or modern? Classic: Gene Kelly. Modern: Viggo Mortensen.
27. Sexiest movie star of all time FEMALE: Catherine Zeta Jones
28. Movie that could/might as well been written about your life: Felt a lot of affinity towards Circle of Friends. However, when things get surreal, I think of Hairspray. (However, my mother looks nothing like Divine.)
29. Favorite villain in a movie: Oh, so ashamed once again. Alan Rickman as the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
30. Last movie you saw on TV/rented? Prophecy
31. Last movie you saw in theatre: The Two Towers
