Okay, you’re stuck on that proverbial desert island. No one around, but for some strange reason there’s a movie house and a trained monkey that knows how to run the projector. What three films would you want to have with you, one from each category:
1. Drama
2. Comedy
3. Musical
(We at TKZ will try to air drop you some popcorn)
Killzoneblog.com
Hrm….
1. Drama: My Way – best movie I’ve seen in a long time
2. Comedy: Danny Kaye’s Court Jester – no matter how often I watch it I giggle with glee every time
3. Musical: The Music Man cuz South Pacific might be depressing if I’m stuck on an island already
Just leave me with Star Trek II TWOK and The Wizard of Oz and I’ll be all set. LOL!
BK Jackson
1) Pulp Fiction
2) Young Frankenstein
3) Les Miserables
The new release or the Dream Cast recording?
Oh man, Pulp Fiction . . . can my deserted island movie house run a Tarentino marathon on the weekends?
1) Sunset Boulevard
2) Monty Python and the Holy Grail
3) Animal House (Sure it’s a musical. Otis Day and the Knights.
What, no westerns? (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.)
1) Band of Brothers – a) it’s long, b) it’ll make me grateful it’s just a desert island and not a desert island full of people trying to kill me.
2) Noises Off with Michael Caine an Carol Burnett – Because, it’s Michale Caine and Carol Burnett.
3) Moulin Rouge – No explanation needed (also it was robbed of it’s best song at the Oscars).
My categories are all mixed up–all musical in one way or another, two comedies, one pretty dramatic.
-Blues Brothers
-A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum (although the play is much better)
-Les Miserables
Blues Brothers. It has it all.
Drama: will Carrie Fisher kill Jake?
Comedy: Dan Aykroyd singing “Sometimes It’s Hard to be a Woman.” Cracks me up every time.
Musical: Aretha, Stevie, Belushi.
