    Stealed from NotBob

    Nicked from a couple of people:

    1. Name a movie you have seen more than 10 times
    Hmmm - a difficult one...
    Probably Star Wars - can't think of anything else.

    2. Name a movie you’ve seen multiple times in the theater
    Don't think I've EVER done this.

    3. Name an actor who would make you more inclined to see a movie
    Maybe someone like Al Pacino - though even he doesn't always make good film choices.

    4. Name an actor who would make you less likely to see a movie
    Ashton Kutcher

    5. Name a movie and do a quote from it
    Star Wars
    'These are not the droids you're looking for...'

    6. Name a movie musical in which you know all of the lyrics to all of the songs
    My Fair Lady, Westside Story (though I've never seen the whole movie), Sweeney Todd (all the songs, all the dialogue - everthing!) and, doubtless, many others.

    7. Name a movie you have been known to sing along with
    Sweeney Todd - in the cinema (fairy quietly though)...
    Is fortunate that there weren't many people there ;)

    8. Name a movie you would recommend everyone see
    A Clockwork Orange

    9. Name a movie you own
    The Godfather

    10. Name an actor who launched his/her entertainment career in another medium but who has surprised you with his/her acting chops.
    Didn't Alan Rickman start out as a graphic designer or something?

    11. Have you ever seen a movie in a drive-in?
    No - though I wish I could.

    12. Ever made out in a movie?
    Once or twice, possibly, though probably not a GOOD one.

    13. Name a movie you keep meaning to see but you just haven’t gotten around to yet.
    No Country for Old Men

    14. Ever walked out of a movie?
    Only once - The Mangler at midnight at Lea Valley UCI - was v v poor.
    Actually - would quite like to see it again now - just to see if it really was THAT bad...

    15. Name a movie that made you cry in the theater.
    All good movies should make you cry ;)
    I think Sweeney Todd was the last one probably, and I cried through lots of that, as I knew how it ended!

    16. Popcorn?
    Occasionally...
    I like it salty ;)

    17. How often do you go to the movies
    Sometimes - probably not as often as monthly, but not far off...

    18. What’s the last movie you saw in the theater?
    In Bruges

    19. What’s your favorite/preferred genre of movie?
    Hard to say - I love a good horror film and am easily seduced by Die Hard type action movies, but am not averse to GOOD comedies (of the non romantic kind) or decent dramas either... Basically, I just like films!

    20. What’s the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?
    Embarassing - the My Little Ponies Movies - there were flutter ponies and the Smooze!

    21. What movie do you wish you had never seen?
    FIELD OF STUUUUUPID DREAMS!

    22. What is the weirdest movie you enjoyed?
    I quite liked Crash (the Cronenberg one, I mean) - think that was pretty controversial at the time? Actually, most of his movies are pretty weird..

    23. What is the scariest movie you’ve seen?
    Dunno - I like horror movies, but am not sure that they're really scary exactly...
    I remember blagging my way into Interview With a Vampire with a group of friends when we were totally underage and then walking home through a cemetery - that was pretty frightening (in a giggling teenage girl kind of way...)

    24. What is the funniest film you have ever seen?
    That is a difficult question!
    Will perhaps come back to you on it later!

  • Egg update

    So we cooked the first of the eggs this morning!

    Here it is happily boiling away (for a V long time - possibly even slightly too long...)
    Egg1

    Here it is after cooking:
    Egg2

    Here it is after we hacked the top off (using breadknife, hammer and chisel):
    Egg4

    And here we are, happily dipping our (giant) soldiers into it:
    Egg5

    It was good :)

    Although, given that there are only three of us here, we may be eating it for some time!
