I've Been Tagged

...by Richard Hall, who wants me to take an online quiz.

1. Total number of movies that I own on DVD/Video.

Lots, probably dozens quickly recorded off the TV back in 1992. That was a time when my family might move to Saudi Arabia, and we would need movies to keep ourselves entertained. So there are many VHS copies of bad, old movies in a closet somewhere.

2. Last movie that I bought.

It doesn't count as a movie, but my most recent DVD acquisition was Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law.

3. Last movie that I watched.

My mind is drawing a blank here. Maybe it was one of the Hornblower movies.

4. Five movies that mean at lot to me:

Excalibur: Brilliant exploration of the search for moral government and the struggle between good and evil.

Gladiator: Again, the good v. evil theme. It's a marvelous expression of human perseverance.

The Crossing: Gets my patriotic blood working. Washington's character is a great demonstration of leadership and determination.

Star Wars: The three original movies. I don't think that I need to justify why.

Krull: Non-stop light adventure. As a teenager, I watched this movie so many times that I had the entire script memorized.

UPDATE: I now remember that I am supposed to tag three other bloggers to take the test. Let's see: Theresa, Beth, and Jeff.
