OK, so I like a lot of movies. Someone once told me my "filter" was way too big because I like such a wide variety of films. Even so, I present to you a very large (but not all encompassing) list of some of my favorite movies: The Shawshank Redemption, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Fight Club, Lost In Translation, The Royal Tenenbaums, Broken Flowers, Chinatown, LOTR, Mallrats, Bull Durham, Happy Texas, Sideways, The Cider House Rules, Garden State, 9 to 5, Chicago, The Matrix, Rushmore, Goodfellas, High Fidelity, Good Will Hunting, Finding Neverland, Big Fish, Bottle Rocket, The Godfather, The Fifth Element, My Cousin Vinny, The Usual Suspects, The Cable Guy, Young Frankenstein, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, Bambi, Shadow of the Vampire, Secretary, 12 Monkeys, The Big Lebowski, Requiem for a Dream, Basketball Diaries, Brokeback Mountain, Edward Scissorhands, Half-Baked, Spider-Man 1 and 2, Star Wars (Episodes 3-6; skip 1 and 2), Miller's Crossing, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Office Space, O Brother Where Art Thou, The Tao of Steve and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Let's see. I love Grey's Anatomy, The Office and My Name is Earl. I think Scrubs is one of the funniest sitcoms ever made, but Seinfeld is the absolute best! Reality TV isn't something I ever thought I'd watch, but I got hooked on Project Runway and Dancing with the Stars. Oh, and the best new show on TV right now is The Riches.... and Pushing Daisies. You should check it out.
