    Pulp Fiction probably, but that movie is so perfect that no actor can do any wrong in it ... That is actually one of the movies I'd love to discover again and see it as if I haven't seen it before again.

    Edit to answer the question: I think Dirty Dancing :oops: :lol:


    What movie would you like to see again like for the first time if you would be able to?

    Probably Fight Club...loved seeing that for the first time!

    You?

    Yup, that one, The Matrix and Memento!

    Did you ever watch movies that were adapted from books you read and actually enjoyed them?
  • afroannnie
    afroannnie Posts: 12,995
    Memento is a good one too! After I saw that for the first time..I would watch it with people that never saw it just to watch their reaction.

    Yep...most of Stephen King's books have had pretty good adaptions...in particular The Shining :D

    Fave Jack Nicholson movie?

    Loved him in The Shining, too. But I also though he was great in Easy Rider ... Sexy man 8-)

    Ever seen a dubbed movie and liked the dubbing voice more than the original voice of the actor?

    I don't think I've seen many movies with the voices dubbed over...if I watch foreign films, I usually go for subtitles.

    How many languages do you speak?

    I'm good at German :lol: English and I think rather decent at French. I'm good at understanding some more ...

    What about you?
  • afroannnie
    afroannnie Posts: 12,995
    Really only English :( I took 4 years of French in high school and then 2 years in college, so I can read a little bit of French and can probably speak enough to survive in France :lol: I also took 3 years of German in high school, but I don't remember too much. I wish the US would start teaching foreign languages earlier than they do..
    I found out that i can use the Rosetta Stone for free at my work...so I may try to learn a little bit more that way.


    Language that you would like to learn?

    I love the sound of Finnish and actually took Finnish classes while studying there for one term, but it is just too hard. So Finnish it would be :)

    What foreign language would you like to master?
  • afroannnie
    afroannnie Posts: 12,995
    I think it would be really cool to learn Japanese, but learning a foreign language with a different alphabet is a little daunting.


    Do you like sushi?

    I'm trying to, but I only liked it so far when we made it ourselves. My sister studied a year in Tokio by the way, and she loved it. I had to learn Russian at school, so from experience I can tell you it's cool to be able to decipher words that not everyone can read :lol: And Japanese is not as hard to learn as one would think, I heard ...

    When do you get in christmas mood usually? (They're setting up the christmas market in my town already and I'm totally NOT in the mood yet ...)

    well, sort of forced to since I have all those apples. I also love a good pumpkin bread...I have a can of pumpkin on the counter right now.

    Are you a better baker or cook?

    I'd say cook. But I just cook more than I bake.

    What is your "soul food" when you are sick?

    Mahed potato with cheese mixed in. Then grilled. Plus chocolate always helps (but not with mash potato).

    What's yours?
