1. What’s the one movie you’ve seen more times than any other?
well, either Fish Called Wanda, or Princess Bride. I can play both movies pretty much without the volume and recite the dialogue. Oh, and Spinal Tap, too.
2. If you could turn one book, comic book or other print story into a feature-length movie, what story would you pick and why?
ooh, good question. A Few Seconds of Panic, from Stefan Fatsis. I wrote about it over on the ‘what I am reading’ tab. It’s a fascinating inside look, from a player, of the NFL.
3. Whom would you cast?
Giovanni Ribisi. I would cast him for almost everything. He is funny and creepy and a great actor, even though he is a Scientologist > which totally creeps me out.
4. What one movie would you like to see “updated for the year 2005”? (Ie, a remake)
I honestly never tire of iterations of ‘Alice in Wonderland’. Every version brings me entertainment. It’s the best book ever written. Also cool would be ‘Harold and Maude’ which is just an amazing amazing movie. Wait, scratch that. That movie was cast and acted so well, it shan’t be touched.
5. What one movie are you most looking forward to this year?
seeing the Rum Diary. It was already out in theaters, but I missed it since it closed after about 2 days. I love Johnny, and I really love Hunter. The Rum Diary was Hunter’s first book, long before all that “fear and loathing” stuff.
