This question might be lame, but what the hell, I'm going for it. Let's say you were stuck on a deserted island or something and you bring a couple of movies with you, but those would be the only movies you could ever watch. You could choose:
One comedy
One drama
One sci-fi
One horror
One action movie
One animated movie
One black & white
One film from your favorite actor
One film from your favorite actress
One movie from this year (2001) that you haven't chosen already
One movie from the 90's that you haven't mentioned already
One other movie (any kind)
That's 12 movies. I usually find these questions fun, so here you go.
