1. most inspiring song you've listened to?
2. romance manga, or romance books?
3. favorite Mystery book/movie/anime

1. "Unwritten" by Natasha Beddingfield
2. Books. By far XD Romance manga just don't touch me in the same way.
3. UUuuhhh... I like Detective Conan (anime), Devil in the White City (book- not so much of a mystery as a 'true crime mystery'), and ...... Hot Fuzz as my favorite mystery movie! (okay, so it's not really a mystery. But it has a bit of one!)

1. Which Batman is best: Adam West, Michael Keaton, Kevin Conroy, or Christian Bale?
2. Which Mythbuster do you like?

2. Which Mythbuster do you like?

1. I've only seen the Christian Bale one, so I'm going with him! (I never had any interest in the other batman movies- I'd seen bits and pieces of them, and they were so bad >.>")
2. I'm a big fan of Adam and Tori- they're just so zany that I can't help but adore them! Though Grant is the woobie of the show- if there's something he can be tersted on, or have performed on him.... he's it.

1. Favorite FMA character? (use either version?)
2. Favorite composer for movies (John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Danny Elfman, etc)?
3. I see you like Ah! My Goddess. Which anime was better, do you think--the first or second series?

1. Winry. She's one awesome gal- especially in Brotherhood!
2. Danny Elfman. His songs are so unbelievably catchy and singable.
3. Do you mean the OVA or the tv series? Or between seasons 1 and 2 of the tv series?

If it's between the OVA and the tv series, tv series wins hands-down. Between seasons 1 and 2, the second season, because Skuld gets more screentime (and I love Skuld!)

1. Ever read/watch X-men?
2. Do you like Don Bluth's movies (he did Secret of Nimh, An American Tail, and some other movies too)?
3. Ever watch/read The Last Unicorn? (yes, it's a book too! And very well-written!)

1. Yes. THe first movie and the second. However, I found that the second movie made little to no sense unless you had background from the comics, because I didn't understand it AT ALL!
2. YES! I love Feivel Goes West! That's one of the most awesome kids' movies EVER! XD
3. YES YES YES! I rented the tape when I went to the video store when I was a kid, and I loved it! I've known it was a book for quite a while, but you couldn't get it through my old library system (though they had almost all the other Peter S. Beagle books). I'm going to see whether they have it in my new library system.

how long have u been here and do u like cheese/

I've been here since the end of March so...... about 5 mo.s. Seems like a really long time, now that I think about it! And yes, I like cheese. What kind depends on the day and what I'm having it with. Cheddar goes good on a ham sandwich, provolone on a turkey, both plus mozzarella on a homemade pizza, and there's one specialty cheese I had once but can't remember the name, but it was very smooth and light, and I loved it!..... And sometimes Feta, on certain salads.

1. Ever watch Doctor Who? (You should, it's the longest-running sci-fi show)
2. Ever watch Twilight Zone?
3. Who's your favorite Batman villain?

[Atria35]

2. Ever watch Twilight Zone?
3. Who's your favorite Batman villain?

1. I have seen a few epsiodes, but I couldn't get past the cheezy special effects.... and I was too far in to get the story. I know I should, but I have other things I'd like to see other than that.
2. YES! Creeeeepy stuff. And I loved it! Totally up my alley.
3. The Joker. I liked him when I was watching the Batman cartoon, I loved him in The Dark Knight.... just forever and always my favorite Batman villian!

[rocklobster]

1. Ever watch the Iron Giant?
2. Do you like sports?

[Atria35]

1. Ever watch the Iron Giant?
2. Do you like sports?

1. YES! I actually didn't really get it the first time I saw it, but my brother liked it- the second time I saw it, I cried.
2. Depends. I'm a huge hockey fan, and college volleyball is INTENSE! I also try to make a point of watching professional ice skating. For myself, I enjoy archery, and rollerblading, and sometimes soccer.

[rocklobster]

1. Favorite NHL Hockey team?
2. Ever watch the short-lived Disney cartoon The Mighty Ducks? If so, do you think it was better than they apparently did?
3. Have you read The Giver?

1. THE BLACKHAWKS! Go Blackhawks! WooT! Won the Stanley cup.... Woooo!
2. No. I never watched the cartoon- I thought it was just fine as a movie, and saw no need to see something so.... silly.
3. YES! Another one that made me cry. It was my introduction to 'harder literature', when I started feeling more comfortable checking out more adult books. And it was a fantastic book.

[rocklobster]

1. Have you seen Back to the Future? If so, which Back to the Future did you like best?
2. have you seen any of the corny cartoons that were based on toys that came out in the 80's, like He-man, Bravestar, Thundercats, or Silverhawks? (ok, Thundercats wasn't that corny) Which one do you think was the corniest?
3. Did you ever watch the classic Star Trek of the 60's?

3. Did you ever watch the classic Star Trek of the 60's?

1. YES! I think the second one was my favorite. Who doesn't want to get a glimpe of their future and see what their kids are like? I would wanna know if I ever had any/how they turned out!
2. YES! The Thundercats are awesome. I love Cheetara! She was my favorite. The end to the whole series was a little off-putting, though.
3. Um, no. I'm sure that some of it is awesome, but it's a little too corny for me. Even with my particular sense of humor.

[rocklobster]

2. Are you going to watch any of the movies I answered your question with?
3. Ever seen Blade Runner?

3. Ever seen Blade Runner?

1. YES! The original series, by far. I don't know what happened with the prequels, but I just felt that they didn't live up to them.
2. Yes. I've actually seen half of those already (Wonderful Life is watched every Xmas with the fam, seen Vertigo bcs I'm a HUGE Hitchcock fan, Citizen Cane for a film class-and hated it, actually- and I've actually read the entire Space Odessy series so I'm not seeing the films. But the rest I've been meaning to see forever, and actually checked Dr. Strangelove out of the library without seeing it!
3. Yes. It was on TV one time, and while I had missed part of it, what I dd see was pretty fun.

1. Would you want to live in Naruto's world?
2. What's the strangest movie you ever watched that wasn't anime?
3. What's your star sign? (note: answering this question will not mean you believe in astrology. I know mine and I don't buy that stuff at all.

1. No. Too many overpowered villians. Quite frankly, Im not sure why civilians are even alive at this point, since they're slaughtered all the time. And I'd be dead.
2. Citizen Kane. I don't know why people liked it, to this day!
3. lol, don't worry about that! I'm a Taurus.

[rocklobster]

1. Would you want a closet that takes you to Narnia?
2. How about a "time-travelling phone booth"?
3. On that note, Ever watch any of the two Bill & Ted movies?
4. What do you think about Keanu Reeves playing Spike in the proposed Cowboy Bebop live-action movie?

1. Um, YES! XD That would be TOO cool!
2. Depends whether I could ever visit home again
3, Nope, never heard of them
4. Well.... I like Keanu Reeves, and he does seem to play characters with hat personality. As long as they don't insist on trying to give him Spike's hair, then I think it'll be okay.

Where did you get the idea for your username?

The movie The Neverending Story. It's a variation on Atreyu, the Native-American-based character.
