Matchbox 20, U2, Tom Petty, Foo Fighters, The Fray, The Dandy Warhols, Counting Crows, Nickleback, Remi-Zero... the list goes on and on, so let's just go with the sound assumption that I like what you like too :P
Movies are great....great family nights...great excuses to just hang out with your friends...um...kind of a cliche date but hey!...what ever is clever. I like many movies, pretty much the well known ones like Gladiator, Pirates, Kingdom of Heaven, etc etc. But I also have strong ties to classics. What I do not watch are pretty much the ones that nobody wacthes :)
House M.D., all the way. Heroes. That's pretty much it. I did watch the Croc Hunter once :(
The Inheritance Trilogy, any Anne McCaffrey or Larry McMurtrey. Star Wars books, Dan Brown. My whole family delves into science fiction and fantasy (not the same genres in my opinion). Suspense and ming-boggling books captivate us as well. Give us a mystery and we'll grab the Mystery Mobile!
Christopher Reeves, though not for his infirmity, but for his acting abilities and his will power to go on.
