People with conviction who are open to new ideas and new perspectives.
Current faves include Rise Against, Snow Patrol, Doves, Sneaker Pimps, Muse, Black Sun Empire, and Rise Against. The Watchmen, The Weakerthans, Counting Crows, Finger Eleven, The Clash, & Cake will always be faves... I'll stop now. Various genres, lots of artists.
Kevin Smith has got to be one of my favourite directors. The Princess Bride, Willow and Labyrinth will always be classics. So I Married an Axe Murderer is also an all-time favourite movie ("Head, move, now!!"). Lots of genres appeal, but I'm almost always up for a good action flick. And if it's based on a comic book, so much the better.
CSI, Grey's Anatomy and Bones are some of my current favourites. Oh, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer is my dirty little addiction.
Tad Williams, Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams are some of my favourite authors. Genre-wise, I'm a sucker for fantasy, and theology/exploring faith and church issues. Generally I read for escaping reality, though, so theology stuff is only when I'm either studying it, or not in school with a decent amount of free time.
