Questions from [livejournal.com profile] quasigeostrophy

1. What historical figure would you most like to meet?

Hmmm... Ben Franklin, Margaret Sanger, and Janis Joplin all come to mind.

2. What do you like most about where you live?

My personal connections to people in the area. Low cost of living, while being able to live pretty much downtown, and enjoy the benefits of city amenities. Lake Erie.

3. What do you like least about it?
The levels of pollution and unemployment, and the rather socially conservative nature of large chunks of the community. Being part of Ohio's political scene, with all its fuckeduppedness and scary fundamentalist influences.

4. We're together for several hours. What do we talk about?

I'd honestly be interested to hear you geek about meteorology for quite a while.

5. What is your all-time favorite film?

Wow, that's an incredibly difficult one, actually. I don't think I have a favorite movie, particularly. All of the following are movies that come to mind that I can watch over and over again, though.

Blues Brothers, Harold and Maude, Ghostbusters, Jeffrey, The Hudsucker Proxy, The Dark Crystal, Real Genius, The Thomas Crowne Affair, Saving Grace, Tank Girl, Time Bandits, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.

I haven't seen most of your favourite films! :(

I love Time Bandits, though.

Ah, but Netflix is a lovely thing, if you're so inclined.

I expect that likely got lost in all the confusion of coming up here; that's actually when I friended you, was when you were moving up to my neck of the woods. Hi!

I'm in definite agreement about most of these films. Btw, when you say The Thomas Crowne Affair do you mean the original or the recent (and IMHO considerably better) remake?

Also, have you seen Outrageous!, or Simply Irresistible, Gotham or King of Hearts? Those are all on my favorite film list (especially the first two) and are films that I think you might like.

based on your selection of movies, we really, really have to hang out sometime.

The remake, definitely.

And I haven't seen any of those, but I'm adding them to my Netflix queue right now...

*grin* Well, now that we're on the same side of the continent I bet that could be arranged!
