I like silly pie in the face, slip on banana peel stuff.

 

Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy.

 

I want to be entertained. I want to laugh and smile and have a good time.

Comedy

 

I've been on a huge documentary binge lately though especially music related. Lot of good rock docs (Harrison,Springsteen's The Promise,Foo, 2.gif ,Pearl Jam,Tom Petty,Doors,U2's Achtung Baby recordings) in the past few years.

Seeing many of the "comedies" out lately really don't make me laugh - I went with Action. Both are very close to the top for me.

 

I also like thrillers, but not "horror"

I think documentaries would be my choice, but typically I will only watch those of people I'm interested in. The documentaries rarely disappoint me.

 

Other formats are hard to predict. What you end up watching may not be what you expected.

I'd like comedies and horror films more if they didn't suck so often.

One thing that I can't stand about current horror is CGI gore. Looks so fake and will never compare to the great makeup artistry of legends like Rick Baker and Tom Savini.

Indeed. Give me the axe in the face from the original Friday The 13th from 1980 any day.

ACTION/ADVENTURE!

Give me something exciting. Give me something that will have me on the edge of my seat and clenching the armrests and gnawing at my fingernails in anticipation. I guess Drama could fall into that category, too - some of the really well-written ones are just fabulously intriguing.

 

I like a movie that's so good I don't want to risk blinking for fear I'll miss something awesome. The more raw emotions a film can pull out of me, the more I love it! (There's a reason The Dark Knight pretty much tops my list.)

I guess the proper answer is "good ones" in any genre. If it's good, it doesn't matter. Conversely, if it sucks, it also doesn't matter.

This, for sure.
