Movie thoughts

1 Comment

What are your top ten favorite movies? – The Daily writing prompt inquiries this Monday.

I’m a little hazy from the weekend and don’t want to think about prioritizing a list that changes from time to time and mood to mood.

For instance, if it’s around Christmas time you might hear this old man laughing at Home Alone. When I was younger with kids I don’t know who enjoyed animated children’s movies more, from the old classics to Toy Stories and Shrek.

I have a hard time passing the tube if The Blues Brothers, Caddyshack, or Animal House are on.

I like action movies like the Bond series or anything with Clint Eastwood. The Matrix or Raiders series are fun.

The first 2 Godfathers, Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, Heat and Goodfellas are ones I can watch again and again.

Some old classic war movies I like watching like The Great Escape or The Dirty Dozen. The Train, Patton, or more current ones like Apocalypse Now, Fury, Hacksaw Ridge and Inglorious Bastards

I’m not a horror movie fan but I think The Shining is a great movie. Christine is pretty strange.

Oh yeah, can’t forget great car movies. Bullet with Steve McQueen and the car chase. The Transporter series and Gone in 60 Seconds, Mad Max and Ford vs Ferrari.

I might have to go back and look at my last answer because I think this might be another repeat question. Then again, I’m getting old and everything is on repeat.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
