I like smart men. And of course the young athletes. So I'm doomed for infidelity, I'm afraid. *laughs* Michelle's going to kill me now... *goes off to start her own thread*

- Princess Mononoke (Pretty much all Studio Ghibli movies)

 

I have a couple of them, off the top of my head i think:

 

- Kiki's Delivery Service

- Spirited Away

- Howl's Moving Castle

 

They're all fun xD The other week i watched this one where a really psychotic looking cat which never stopped grinning, was an actual bus x_x And this giant bear thing that went crazy when it was given an umbrella.

:) My Neighbor Totoro! I loved that movie.

 

I agree, Hayao Miyazaki movies are awesome. My favorites are Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke.

 

Miyazaki had an apprentice who made an animated film called Whisper of the Heart. It's worth watching.

I Am Legend

 

I thought this was a great film until when he meets the woman and kid, i thought it was absolutely brilliant and suspenseful and unexpected until that transition. It shows what a great actor Will Smith is, and the dog too!

I think it's a work of art in the same way that Lost In Translation is. Both are indirect commentaries on life, and theres nothing more I love in a movie than an intellectual interpretation of life.

He's brilliant, I don't like his earlier work, but he is great. I love You've Got Mail.

 

I want to randomly meet a guy (who owns a bookstore chain) online and then end up dating him. :yes: Sleepless in Seattle is also awesome - I love Meg Ryan too, I have to admit.

I actually love that film too. I think Tom Hanks is an amazing actor, he's so versatile too. Saving Private Ryan and Castaway are such moving pieces of work. He's a true great.
