I like most art forms, Japanese culture (and pop culture), good books, vampires and werewolves, the Goth sub-culture
I'd like to make new friends, and catch up with the ones I've lost contact with. :D
Jazz (all types of it), rock, J-pop, J-rock, indie, punk, and whatever else I think I like but can't categorize. I'm pretty much an open book music-wise.
Of recent times, 'Underworld' wins hands down for me. I typically like most well-done period films, military films and the like. Films done by East Asian filmmakers are worth looking at, too.
I like Anne Rice, Banana Yoshimoto, James Clavell, John Grisham, and anyone who has dared try anything different.
