  1. You just earned 5 points for doing a fairly kickass job of filling out this survey. However, you lose two points for using a survey as a post, and you lose one for using Clerks as your #14, unless you are willing to explain why on earth, of all of the movies in the universe, that's the one you chose.

    P.S. "Tom Cruise is not sexy." --Brad (Seriously, Ryan... there are a LOT of hot movie WOMEN out there... ones that will take my breath awaaaaaay...)

  2. I use Clerks for #14 because I liken it to a modern day existentialist movie. It's very low key, black and white, no special effects...it's just a slice of life dialogue heavy film that makes you think.

    Also: not women. Airplanes. F-14 are teh sex.

  3. The Dukes of Hazzard - WTF? Tell me you're kidding.

    Orange County - I'm with you on that.

    Star Wars... I-VI - Just finished watching it recently. Very geeky.

    Serenity - Other people like this movie!? It is so kickass. Firefly rocks the mostest.

    I'm interested to find our what you thought about Clerks 2..
