I guess I would be interested in like, chilling at the beach all day, but I burn. I burn bad. Also, biking, mountain climbing, bungee jumping, sky diving, and other sorts of EXTREME sportage interest me, but eh, what can I say? I'm lazy and have a will to live.
I'd like to meet:
Space-faring/inter-dimensional extraterrestrials and ask them how they survived.

Movies:
Screenwriter...nuff said. I would say the comic genre, but right now it kinda blows. I mean, there're some good flicks out there but nothing...awe-inspiring. Matrix hit the mark, but them sequels did no justice. My comic trilogy'll blow the roof off.
Fight Club, Pi: Chaos in Faith, Requiem for a Dream, Matrix, Bound, Assassins, the Red Bank Chronicles (View Askew ppl should comprehend), Lucas flicks pre-technology upgrade.
Boondock Saints, The Devil's Advocate, Vertigo, Catch Me if You Can, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Chinatown.
The Conan flicks, The Believer, Event Horizon, Taxi Driver, (excuse me, I'm free-associating), Ocean's Eleven (I can't believe they're making a sequel blecch), Snatch.
Pulp Fiction, Resevoir Dogs, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill; Tarantino in, but not directing: From Dusk 'Til Dawn.
Baz Luhrman's Romeo and Juliet, Bio-Dome (I'm allowed one dumb flick), Showgirls (okay, make that two; but Elizabeth Berkley's MAD shexy), The Butterfly Effect (even with the time-travel story holes).
American Psycho, 25th Hour, Kids, Spartan was interesting but confusing at times, Mulholland Drive was much in the ways of being fucked up, but shot rather well.
Unbreakable was awesome, from a comic geeks' perspective; Signs was visually magnificent if a little...predictable.
The Bourne Identity, Love and Sex, The Animatrix, I thought Daredevil had some funky elements, X-Men Uno and Dos (who else thought Patrick Stewart and James Marsden were going to kiss at the end of the second one?).
Trainspotting, although I haven't seen it in like two years; From Hell and the Harry Potter flicks (Robbie Coltrane's an awesome actor); Real Genius; Weird Science; The Breakfast Club; Short Circuit One and Two; porn.
The Usual Suspects, Se7en, The Shawshank Redemption, The Bourne Supremacy (for action), Troy, The Incredibles.
Television:
Jeopardy, Six Feet Under, OZ (on demand), Carnivale's mad f*cked up but good none the less. Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, Cowboy Bebop, Big O, Samurai Champloo (Cartoon Network's the ShizzNit), Star Trek: TNG reruns, Weeds, Penn & Teller's Bullshit.
No, I'm not a TV junkie. Why do you ask?
Books:
Brave New World, Sherlock Holmes shorts, Edgar Allan Poe, Fight Club.
Vonnegut: Slaughter-House Five, Galapagos, Breakfast of Champions. Starting up on Cat's Cradle and Mother Night
The HitchHiker's Guide "Trilogy", Catcher in the Rye.
Ender's Game, Xenocide, Ender's Shadow, Enchantment. Most of the Alvin Maker series; I think I'm missing two books from it. Orson Scott Card's quite an author.
Hamlet, Macbeth, R&J, The Bible/Torah sheh Beksahv, Torah sheh "Ba'al Peh"/Mishna and Gemarah (specifically Mehsechtot/Tractates Ma'akot/"Punishments", Bava Metziah/very loosely translated:"Regarding Ownership", and Gittin/"Divorces/Documents").
Bits and pieces of: Aquinas, Aristotle, Schlessinger, Saadya Gaon, Rambam aka Moses Maimonedes, Freud, Marx, Locke, Hamilton, Kahane(s), Mohammed, Hawkings.
Comics: Batman, JLA, Authority, Planetary, Y: The Last Man, Spiderman/Black Cat: The Evil that Men Do, The Ultimates and 2, House of M, Supreme Power, as well as Hyperion and Nighthawk.
Compilations: Watchmen; League of Extraordinary Gentleman; a few JLA books (New World Order, Strength in Numbers, American Dreams, Primeval, Foreign Bodies, Kingdom Come); all of the Authority compilations (although the first one I lent to someone and never got back, that ho); All the Y: The Last Man comps (actually only just started collecting the comics themselves. It took me a bit to find back-issues); Planetary "elseworlds" (Batman (also lent, and unreturned), Authority, and JLA); Batman compilations.
Since I have no where else to put this up here (I don't think), I'm going to put some of my favorite websites up as well.
