The A – Z Movie Meme
Last month Blog Cabins started a pretty cool meme where he lists his favorite movies A – Z. Since I’ve been slacking off on my posts for the last few months, I wanted to go back and share my own list with you. I’ve included some of my favorite TV series on the list as well, since I actually enjoy TV shows even more than movies. For most of the letters, there were clear winners for me, but on a couple of them it was pretty hard to choose. If you haven’t made your own list, it’s a lot of fun to try and put it together, especially if you happen to be a moviehound.
A – Alias
B – Blade Runner
C – The Cable Guy
D – Dawn of the Dead
E – Election
F – Family Guy
G – Glengarry Glen Ross
H – Heat
I – Interview With The Vampire
J – Jericho
K – Kingpin
L – L.A. Story
M – Memento
N – News Radio
O – Old School
P – Planet Of The Apes
Q – Quantum Leap
R – Reservoir Dogs
S – Survivor
T – True Romance
U – The Usual Suspects
V – Very Bad Things
W – Wall St.
X – X-Files
Y – Young Guns
Z – Zero Effect

Have you put family guy because of the series or the movie? Didn’t find the movie so amazing myself…
I’m still looking for someone to have put Ferris Bueller’s Day Off!

What, no 2001: A Space Odyssey? No A Clockwork Orange? No The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly?
Not a very good list IMO. Although, Memento is amazing.
2001 Space Odyssey has it’s place in the sci-fi canon, but I found the movie to be too slow for my tastes. As far as Clockwork Oranges goes, it was a little bit too abstract for me to fully appreciate. I didn’t mind the violence in it, but just couldn’t understand the rationalization for it, so it made it hard for me to appreciate. The good the bad and the ugly is a really good film, but Glengarry Glen Ross was too legendary of a film to pass it up. The writing, acting, and directing were all amazing. There are no fancy special effects, but the character development was superb.
Fair enough.
