Day 11: A Good Movie With An Actor You Really Hate
RAISING ARIZONA (1987) It’s really hard for me to hate anyone. They’re harsh words. But if I have to choose, I’m going for Nicholas Cage. I don’t really hate the man, but I can’t stand that he seems to have… Continue reading

Day 10: A Movie From The Director You Hate The Most
THE ROCK (1996) This was a hard one because it didn’t state whether you liked or disliked the movie but hated the director, so I’ve chosen a movie that I’ve enjoyed from time to time from a director that I truly can’t… Continue reading

Day 9: A Movie From Your Favorite Director
JAWS (1975) Anyone who’s met me knows who my favorite director is (and probably always will be). There are another dozen directors that I could have picked, but only Steven Spielberg has been able to be more commercially successful… Continue reading

Day 8: A Movie That Reminds You Of Someone
TOOTSIE (1982) Lisa and I always had many movies we could relate to. Growing up watching the same movies as kids, we had a lot in common. We both enjoyed Tootsie as well, but she loved it. I liked it… Continue reading

Day 7: A Movie That You Quote A Lot
TOMMY BOY (1995) I’m guessing that this day’s selection will finally match with James Falcon (but who knows, I could be wrong). This movie is so outlandishly retarded but incredibly fun to watch. Chris Farley and David Spade are at… Continue reading

Day 6: A Movie That Reminds You Of A Certain Event
THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN (2005) This movie is raunchy, gross, and inappropriate on so many different levels… but also extremely funny. Lisa began to reference this movie when we first started dating, since there were similarities between Andy Stitzer… Continue reading

Day 5: A Movie That You Want To Play At Your Funeral
AMELIE (2001) I know what you’re thinking and it’s not true. I wouldn’t necessarily want to subject my family and friends to a 2 hour movie that’s in French after mourning my death, but the film is so amazing and… Continue reading

Day 4: A Movie That Makes You Sad
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL (1998) Roberto Benigni’s masterpiece about protecting his son’s innocence in a Nazi death camp was one of the most touching films I had seen back in 1998. It still rings true today, and as fantastic as the… Continue reading

Day 3: A Movie That Makes You Happy
FLETCH (1985) The comedic brilliance of Chevy Chase shined profusely in ‘Fletch.’ Brilliant one-liners delivered by one of the most cherished comedy geniuses of our generation. This is just a great detective movie with witty dialog and a fantastic narration.… Continue reading

Day 2: Least Favorite Movie
HOWARD THE DUCK (1986) Another cinematic turd squeezed out by George Lucas, who wouldn’t produce another one this big again until 1999 with Episode I. This movie was so *fowl* that it almost ruined Lea Thompson’s mostly lackluster career. It’s… Continue reading
