Amateur Reviews' FILM Q&A
Thought all us movie fanatics could start something a bit
like that Liebster Blog Awards tag that went round a few months ago. Us film
buffs seem to like rating things and ordering lists so this could be fun and
interesting to read other blogs’ responses.
Unlike Liebster there shall be no rules!

5.
Favourite Fictional Character : This is a bit difficult! Lisbeth Salander perhaps...
6.
Favourite Adaptation: There Will Be Blood from
the novel Oil
7.
Favourite Musical: Les Miserables is stunning
for the songs. Nine is equally stunning for Italy and the absolutely stellar
cast.
8.
First R18 Film You Watched: I want to say Fight
Club but I think it was American Beauty… Neither of which are that bad in
comparison to today’s ones, and are certainly not gratuitous.
9.
Your Best Experience Going To The Movies:
Definitely Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy from a couple of years ago. Never have I
been in a theatre and felt people concentrating so intensely. It’s like the cogs
were literally turning.
10.
A Guilty Pleasure: where do I begin? Bond films?
Superhero flicks? Awful comedies? Die Another Day, Thor and Horrible Bosses are
not films I usually profess my admiration for. Oh and National Treasure 1&2…
11.
An Overrated Movie: Sorry Martin Scorsese… Hugo!
Not sure why I didn’t rate that as much as everyone else but it was a bit long
winded and nothing happened.
12.
An Underrated Movie: Affleck’s early stuff. Argo’s
is incredible, but Gone Baby Gone and The Town especially are fantastic.
13.
A Movie That Is Worse Than The Book: The latest
On The Road picture has got nothing on Jack Kerouac’s perfect novel. And I have
it on good authority that Sam and Garrett were nothing like Sal and Dean in
real life.
14.
A Kids Movie You Always Watch: Not sure about always but no Christmas is complete
without The Polar Express and The Grinch.
15.
A Movie From A Director Which You Didn’t Like:
Woody Allen’s You Will Meet A Tall Dark
Stranger. I’m sorry but Paris got the fantastical Midnight In Paris, Barca got
the searing Vicky Cristina Barcelona and London got You Will Meet A Tall Dark
Stranger; disappointed to say the least.
16.
A Film You’re Expecting Excitedly: Kill Your
Darlings undoubtedly. If you have followed Amateur Reviews for a bit you know
what a raging Beat Freak I am. Anything Beat Generation related and I’m on it.
Jack Kerouac, Lucien Carr, William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg will all be reincarnated
in this movie and it looks amazing. Perfection hopefully.
I nominate:
