Movies

Hello! I took this survey and thought it might be fun for others to do the same. I wonder what sorts of things you can tell about a person by their taste in movies- or their responses to this survey at any rate. I had fun thinking over the questions, and hope to see your responses in a little while. E-mail your answers or leave them as a comment if you don't have a blog spot. Thanks!
