1) Total number of films you own on DVD/video: Ummmm *pauses* *counts* *gives up* I have no idea. Somewhere in the region of 200.

2) The last film I bought: Ladies in Lavender and Behind Enemy Lines (bought them both tonight, in fact!)

3) The last film I watched: Oh gawp...must have been Lethal (it's a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad, hysterically so in fact, film that I watched while I was in NYC), though I'm planning to watch Ladies in Lavender tonight.

4) Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me:

i) Star Wars (all six films) - Huge part of my life, these films; from long summers spent memorising Return of the Jedi to seeing Attack of the Clones on opening night in, of all places, St Andrews; from reading Revenge of the Sith on the flight back from NYC to watching A New Hope in company with ganeris and Carrie last September and getting to discect the whole universe that night. Much, much, much fun :)

ii) X-Men - As a long time Wolverine fan, my socks were duly knocked well off when I saw Hugh Jackman. Great, great movie.

iii) Labyrinth - This was another movie that I spent long summers memorising (to the point that I can and will quote this film at the drop of a hat); it's just a fun, fun film and so childfriendly, too.

iv) Sliding Doors - it's a unique idea and it's so well done

v) Ghost Rock - It's not the best film in the world; the script could use work (ganeris you can stop laughing now, honest ;)) but it's the first film that I've seen that Dan Southworth's had a major role in and it IS a good role.

5) Which five people are you passing the baton onto? And why?
i) ganeris because she has a really wide taste in films
ii) angel_negra because I think she will have some fun stuff in hers
iii) vikkik because I think she'll have some fun stuff in hers too
iv) weirdweb because I *know* she's got some fun stuff in her collection
v) cmar_wingnut to see what's in her collection.
