    the first movie you ever saw in the cinema : 101 Dalmatians (it was a re-release!)

    the movie you love that no one(you know) has heard of: Conspiracy

    movie you love that everyone else hates: Armageddon (hangs head in shame!)

    your desert island movie: The Big Lebowski

    your favourite mob movie: Ghost dog the way of the samuri/ Leon

    the movie that scared you the most: The Exorcist

    Several of these could have been replaced by other films. I couldn't decide between two for the mob one so I included both!

    Movie you love that everyone else hates: Your Highness. Critics really hated it and I don't think I've met anyone who has claimed to really have enjoyed it. I can totally see why it's perceived as godawful but I've watched it three times and laughed at it's stupid, juvenile, vulgar humour each and every time. It's a great looking film with a starry cast and yet they blow it all on endless, endless dick jokes and silly first take goofs. I kind of find that charming in a weird way.

    Ha, I thought it was going to be awful but I was in stitches for the whole thing.

    the first movie you ever saw in the cinema : Ghostbusters at the Cineplex in Cork City with my dad and older brother. I was only just turned 5 and distinctly remember being frightened at Slimer.

    the movie you love that no one(you know) has heard of: Unbreakable. It's association with Shyamalan has somewhat sullied it's reputation, but I just love it, by far his best movie for me.

    movie you love that everyone else hates: The English Patient. For a movie that won 9 oscars, plenty seem to despise it. Having watched it recently as an adult, I appreciate it it's merits a lot more than I did as a 16 year old muttering about what all the fuss is about. It's a beautiful movie and more poignant when re-visiting it knowing that Minghella passed away so young.

    your desert island movie: Castaway :D. But seriously, it would have to be the Shawshank Redemption.

    your favourite mob movie: The Godfather Part 2. A masterpiece.

    the movie that scared you the most: Whenever Jaws was on TV as a child. Going to bed that evening I was scared to let my leg dangle out of the bed because I genuinely thought it would eaten :o

    the movie you love that no one(you know) has heard of: 12:01, a made for tv time loop film that came out at the same time as Groundhog Day

    movie you love that everyone else hates: Supergirl, it was cheesy but Helen Slater was hawt!

    your desert island movie: Blade Runner, could watch it on repeat all day

    your favourite mob movie: Pulp Fiction, because it's a Badass Motherfúcker

    the movie that scared you the most: none really but the one that disturbed me the most would be A Serbian Film

    your desert island movie: A Hard Day's Night (just the sheer joy of it, and I'm cheating as it'll give some music as well)

    your favourite mob movie: Snatch (Turkish, Brick Top, Brad Pitt as a pikey, the soundtrack, what's not to love?)

    the movie that scared you the most: The Omen (movies were way scarier in the 70s)
