I am such an idiot! Awhile ago, Scarlett tagged me. I was so excited that my site was linked to someone elses that I didn't register the meaning of being tagged! Apparently, I was supposed to answer a certain set of questions and then, I presume, tag someone else to do the same. Sometimes I'm just so "DUH."
So without further ado...I give you MY ANSWERS:
1. TOTAL NUMBER OF FILMS I OWN ON DVD/VHS:
Not too sure. A lot of my stuff is still in storage at my sister's place right now. My guess would be about 1oo or so. Mostly VHS unfortunately.
2. LAST FILM I BOUGHT:
Hmm...been pretty much broke for awhile now. Haven't purchased any type of recreational material in awhile. I did buy "Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath" for my son's birthday. Do video games count? They have mini-movies on them...
3. 5 FILMS I WATCH A LOT/THAT MEAN A LOT TO ME:
1. The Princess Bride-This is my old stand by. Whenever I need a "pick me up" this is the movie I turn to. It never fails to turn my grey skies blue.
2. Purple Rain- I have to admit that I am a hardcore old-school Prince fan. This movie marked a historical point in the Prince's career and in my life as well. I must have seen this in the theaters at least 15 times. While it's not the greastest cinematic performance, it will always have a place in my heart. This was my generations "Rocky Horror Picture Show"
3. Raising Arizona- What a great comedy! One of my favorite Cohen brothers movies. I actually took a class on the Cohen brothers and had to watch and analyze this movie as an assignment. I loved that class!
4. Like Water for Chocolate- Just had to throw in something with food. I liked the book more, of course.
5. Amelie- A darling french film with a charming lead character. Audrey Tautou is adorable. Very well made film.
**These aren't necessarily my all-time favorite films, just a small sampling of the films that have touched me in some way. I don't think I could ever pick just one film as a favorite. Much like food, I enjoy a variety of movies. Their so yummy!
I guess I should tag somebody next, but I'm not one for the chain-blogging. Sorry!

I also loved Raising Arizona! I love just about anything Nicolas Cage ever did, he's a cutie!
Thanks for dropping by my blog, hope to see you again soon!
I must be an idiot too- I thought tagging was spraypainting your mark on a wall. Apparently it now has a blogosphere meaning?
Hi there Beatloaf! Good to hear from you again! Read my most recent post (today). Can't believe what an incredibly insensitive, selfish creep I am!!! Jen (the drama queen)
I love Raising Arizona!
Have you seen Babette's Feast, my favorite foodie movie?
Oh, and I only knew about 'tagging' because my step-daughter and her friends are constantly sending each other surveys.
Hey All!!
Nice to "see" everybody. Jasmine is my daughter. She's in school in Chicago. I miss her terribly. I'm actually on the phone with her now and she's getting on my nerves. Daughters!
Scarlett-I haven't seen "Babette's Feast" yet. Maybe I'll rent it tomorrow night!
Uptowngrrl-wow. Tommy's lucky. Bet of luck to you both.
CL-I love that chicken's bikini!
Hey Sarah-time's they are a-changin'
