All the cool kids are playing so let's do this. It took me some thinking, and I'm still not sure I didn't forget one big elephant I can't think of right now. I also tried to diversify things, and not turn this into a "in case you didn't know I'm a big George Clooney and Steven Soderbergh fan". And surprisingly, I'm realizing that despite seeing about 40 movies a year at the theater, you can't really understand everything about me just by the films I watch. Also, narrowing things to 10 is DIFFICULT.

Anyway, here it goes. Don't hesitate to ask me to elaborate - I'm really tempted to do it all right there, but it seems you're supposed to ask. ;-)

Everyone should post their ten most CRUCIAL CRUCIAL CRUCIAL-ASS movies, like the movies that explain everything about yourselves in your current incarnations (not necessarily your ten favorite movies but the ten movies that you, as a person existing currently, feel would help people get to know you) (they can change later on obviously).


1 - O Brother, Where Are Thou? (by the Coen bros. 2000)

2 - Ocean's Eleven (Steven Soderbergh, 2001)

3 - The Great Dictator, (Charlie Chaplin, 1940)

4 - Into the West (Mike Newell, 1992)

5 - Le Bossu (The Hunchback, Philippe de Broca, 1997) French Swatchbuckler film. Not to be confused with Disney's Hunchback of Notre-Dame. Not same thing at all!

6 - Moon (Duncan Jones, 2009)

7 - Tomboy (Céline Sciamma, 2011) French indie film about a little girl pretending to be a boy.

8 - Wall-E (Andrew Stanton, Pixar, 2008)

9 - Big Fish (Tim Burton, 2003)

10 - The Harry Potter franchise. (from 2001) "Mr Potter, our new celebrity..."

Bonus track: you can't pretend to really know me until we've talked about Batman & Robin, the best turkey ever!

Oh yeah. Sometimes they're even "married", because they're soulmates and the "soul bond" snaps into place "because of the time travel".
(And then there are the stories where Draco is a Veela and Harry has to sleep with him because Malfoy has gone "into heat" and otherwise he'll die...)

((And I'll stop infesting your journal with all these "wonderful" plots. Have fun exploring them yourself if you ever feel masochistic or very adventurous :D ))
