Why I'm All About Movies, Movies And Movies

I'm what you might call a movie and television aficionado.

Movies are amazing. But there's a lot of questions to ask and answer when it comes to them.

So let's begin.

Favorite movie?

  • I personally don't have one favorite movie; I love TOO many movies to just choose one. However, a few of my favorite movies are The Host, almost any Disney movie, and HTTYD 1 & 2. I don't really know how to explain why I like them, but these movies are just oh so good. I'm always up for fantasy movies (which the majority of these are animated or fantasy/sci-fi/dystopian) because you are enveloped in a world of magic and awesomeness. You are just able to escape from reality and divulge in something amazing.
I mean who doesn't love that adorable dragon face?

Movies I don't care for?

  • I like almost every kind of movie genre, except documentary and horror. While I can tolerate a documentary, horror is a no go for me. I don't mind the blood and guts as I grew up watching action movies like the Terminator movies and Mortal Kombat; its the suspense of the killers. I hate surprises. And to top it of the majority of horror movies fall into two categories; the first containing a female lead who happens to disregard any logic and does stupid things in attempts to save herself, which ultimately lead to her death. Then there's the second category; the kind of horror movie which gives you nightmares for days.... or forever... So most are not my thing (nononononononononononono.)


How often and where?

  • I generally like to watch movies... a lot. But not too much. I probably watch anywhere from 1-2 movies a week. It really depends on my homework and work (on- and off-campus) load. When I can fit watching a movie into my schedule, without a doubt I'm watching one. Now, I normally like to watch my movies in my room on my laptop, but sometimes I like to watch them in the lobbies on campus. It just depends on the situation. (Sidenote: I probably could watch more movies, but I also like watching YouTube and Korean dramas on DramaFever.

Necessities for movie watching?

  • The only necessity I need for movie watching is food and a blanket. Who needs people to watch movies with you when you are in the company of two others? Me, myself and I?

According to this survey this is my personality:

YOU ARE 50% EXTROVERTED.

You are moderate in activity and enthusiasm. You enjoy the company of others but you also value your privacy.

I'm an awkward human being. Sorry 'bout it. #deuces


YOU ARE 67% AGREEABLE.

You are generally warm, trusting, and agreeable, but you can sometimes be stubborn and competitive.

Mhmm, yeah.


YOU ARE 58% CONSCIENTIOUS.

You are dependable and moderately well-organized. You generally have clear goals and are able to set goals aside.

I'll be the Sherlock to your Watson. We could be BFF's.


YOU ARE 33% EMOTIONALLY STABLE.

You are sensitive, emotional and prone to experience feelings that are upsetting.

Same, Pippin, same.


YOU ARE 58% OPEN TO NEW EXPERIENCES.

You are practical but willing to consider new ways of doing things. You try to seek a balance between the old and the new.

Me out trying new things


And these are my apparent reasons for movie watching:

  • PLEASURE-SEEKING: 80%
  • NOSTALGIA: 65%
  • CATHARSIS: 35%
  • AGGRESSION: 75%
  • ESCAPISM: 75%
  • SENSATION-SEEKING: 0%
  • ARTISTIC: 35%
  • INFORMATION-SEEKING: 15%
  • BOREDOM-AVOIDANCE: 20%
  • SOCIALIZATION:70%

Personality type can affect the reasons and types of movies you watch so I felt that it might be important to add ;)

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
