Motion Picture addiction

Although I stopped watching regular TV altogether in the summer of 2007 for reasons that should be fairly obvious to anyone who’s brain hasn’t been terminated by it yet, I do love movies and a few American TV shows.
My point? Movies and TV shows on DVD: that’s perfectly fine and always welcomed. Movies and shows mixed into a shitload of nonsense crap that’s nothing but loud and annoying and irritating and frustrating and so goddamned unnecessary: no, thanks.

Go ahead and make a little note somewhere about how uptight and bitter I am, if you want. For future references and whatnot.

When you’re done with that, let’s go ahead and take a closer look at my motion picture addiction by starting with my favorite actors and actresses. There are not many (I’m all bitter and full of negative energy and stuff, don’t forget that) but the one’s I like I actually love and admire with all my heart.

There’s Jennifer Aniston who is basically my hero and I mean, what’s there to say? Who doesn’t like her? I’ve loved her since Friends and along with that came my deep appreciation of Matthew Perry’s sarcasm and comedic timing, although I never really liked him in anything else but Friends and the first The Whole Nine Yards movie. Rachel McAdams is one of the most beautiful actresses, in my opinion, and certainly one of the most talented as well. The Notebook and The Family Stone are two of my favorite movies and I really liked her in both. More or less the same goes for Blake Lively who’s on a little show called Gossip Girl which I happen to enjoy a lot. I am also a huge fan of the TV series Gilmore Girls and think that Alexis Bledel is an amazing actress.

My favorite movie of all times ever is Into the Wild.

As far as actors go, I really end up liking anyone who’s not Jack Nicholson. Anyone who may look good in a cowboy hat and chaps, really. That, however, does not only go for actors but basically for all men.
I look back on a strange, first-season-long obsession with Wentworth Miller from Prison Break - but then again who doesn’t? And then there’s Milo Ventimiglia. He’s okay-looking and an okay actor. I like sarcasm, in case that needed clarification. I am also in love with Milo. He and Hayden Panettiere are my heroes.

None of this will ever outdo my love for Friends, though. The end of season ten was the end of an era and no show will ever come close to what Friends was and still is.
