Honestly, it's difficult to decide
on a favorite movie. Extremely difficult, in fact. If I had to choose, though,
I would have to go with The Shawshank Redemption. The storytelling and
narration in this movie is absolutely incredible. It's one of the few examples
where the movie is better than the book. It is executed so well, and Morgan
Freeman was the perfect actor to fill the role of Red. Doubling as a character
and a narrator is right up his alley, and he does it flawlessly in this film.
I really just don’t care for the
entire series of Twilight films. Maybe that’s just me being a guy, but it takes
a lot for me to get through them. Another type of film that I share similar
feelings for is adaptations of books that are unbelievably inaccurate.
I watch movies often. Most of the
time, it’s on Netflix, but sometimes I do go to the theater with friends.
I don’t need much for movie viewing.
I just need a comfortable seat and a beverage. Lighting doesn’t really matter
to me.
If my life story was made into a movie, it would be a pretty boring movie. I haven't done many extravagant things or been to great places. I have no idea what genre it would be, probably comedy.

Morgan Freeman has such a distinct voice and is the quintessential narrator. I love that film and his role in it. I saw a funny clip of impersonator Frank Caliendo reading LeBron James' speak about returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Freeman's dramatic voice. It made me laugh.
