question of the day: Imagine the last film you watched is going to happen to you in real life: how screwed are you?
Here’s a meme that’s apparently been circling the Web for a while now that I only just came across the other day…
questions
question of the weekend: Have you ever seen a UFO?
I don’t mean something you thought was actually an alien spacecraft — though that would be neato, and I’m sure we’d love to all hear about that — but something in the sky that you simply couldn’t identify or weren’t sure about, maybe at first, maybe still to this day.
question of the day: Why have cable networks divorced their programming from all semblance of connection to their branding?
It’s all shark attacks on Discovery, ice road truckers on the History Channel, and Honey Boo Boo on what used to be known as The Learning Channel. WTF?
question of the day: What geek thing are you totally fed up with?
Hobbit trailers? Zombies everywhere? What geek trope is driving you crazy?
question of the day: What pop-culture items would you put in a time capsule to tell people a century from now what entertainment in the early 2000s was like?
My quick list: an iPod; 3D glasses; a Wii controller; a DVD box set of an entire season of TV show; an HDMI cable.
question of the day: What is your favorite biopic?
The first one that springs to mind for me is Out of Africa, because it’s a gorgeous movie, and because it’s about a woman, which so few biopics are.
question of the day: What unfilmmable book would you nevertheless love to see on film, if it could be done justice?
This was inspired by my still ongoing catchup of Jasper Fforde’s brilliant novels about Thursday Next, Literary Detective. It’s impossible to see how they could work in a visual medium, but still…
question of the weekend: What is your least favorite household chore?
Sorry to make you think about this crap.
question of the day: Who is the “great American filmmaker”?
Steven Spielberg might be my choice…
question of the day: The anti-Muslim movie trailer that supposedly prompted the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya: seriously, WTF?
This is a joke, right? No one could possibly take this seriously, could they? I kept expecting Will Ferrell to pop up.
