What are some of your favorite movies?

Man, I'm a big fan of classic comedy action films like 'Smokey and the Bandit', it's one of those films I can watch over again. 'Stroker Ace' is another favorite, I love the real stunts in those old films, it gave an authenticity that you can't get with CGI now. I can't leave out 'Domino', that detective story also had some amazing scenes.

But modern cinema isn't without its gems. 'Ex Machina' is a standout; it's a brilliant depiction of AI, with some seriously intense scenes. I appreciate movies that make you think while being entertaining, that's why I love 'Black Mirror' too. So, yeah those are some that I can immediately think of, but man, the list is long.

What are some of your favorite modern movies?

Man, that's a tough one. There's so much good stuff out there. I've always been a fan of Tarantino's work, like the way he blends drama, action, and just pure, unadulterated cool. So, I'd probably have to say movies like Django Unchained, Pulp Fiction and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood are up there for me.

I also really dig the work of directors like Paul Thomas Anderson and the Wachowski siblings. Their movies often challenge the viewer in fascinating ways, you know? And a fan of the classics too, like the original Dances with Wolves.

But hey, Netflix has been putting out some bangers too. The freedom and flexibility they give filmmakers often results in some unique, boundary-pushing films and shows. It's a great time to be a movie buff, that's for sure.
