Personally I like all eras of cinema, from silent to the latest megabuck blockbuster. Yeah, there's a lot of crap being made today, but there are some gems too. Besides, Hollywood produced a lot of junk way back when as well. Some of those "B" pictures from the thirties and forties were pretty lame, but still a lot of fun. Hey, my wife and I even like those "Full Moon" and "Sterling" direct-to-video releases!

Some of my favorite comedies are classics, like those made by Chaplin, Keaton, Lloyd, the Marx Brothers, Fields, and Laurel & Hardy. I also like the old movie serials made before TV stole kids fascination away. The artistry of "Citizen Kane" and "Casablaca" and all those film noir classics from the forties and fifties has never been equaled either, IMHO.

All that aside, I crave effects laden action films which are bold and daring, but can still keep tongue in cheek without losing that delicate balance between comedy and drama. "Starship Trooper" and "The Mummy" come to mind.

Gee, I guess I just LOVE movies! :-)

PS: I'll try to catch "Ninotchka"!
