30 Day Movie Challenge: Day #26

Day 26. Movie You’re Most Embarrassed to Say You Like

I’m not really embarrassed to say that I like movies. I know there are a lot of bad movies that I enjoy. They’re entertaining. I get the difference between a good and a bad movie but sometimes I just don’t care!

• Surviving Christmas (2004)–A lonely, obnoxious young millionaire pays a family to spend Christmas with him. Starring Ben Affleck, Christina Applegate, James Gandolfini, Catherine O’Hara and Jennifer Morrison. It’s completely nuts and crazy but I laugh through the whole thing! It’s charming and entertaining! Oh and I’ve seen/met most of the main characters in this movie!!

• The Lizzie McGuire Movie (2003)–Lizzie McGuire has graduated from middle school and takes a trip to Rome, Italy with her class. And what was supposed to be only a normal trip, becomes a teenager’s dream come true. Starring Hilary Duff, Adam Lamberg and Yani Gellman. I was a huge fan of the show so of course I would love the movie! It’s every girl’s dream to meet a cute Italian boy and become a popstar! And I know I’m not the only one that loves this movie…I think we all know the correct response to “HEY NOW HEY NOW!”

• Life-Size (2000)–A widower’s daughter accidentally brings her doll to life while trying to cast a spell to resurrect her mother. Starring Lindsay Lohan, Jere Burns and Tyra Banks. Look it’s cute little Lindsay! It shines bright and far! Hahaha! That song gets stuck in my head so often!!

• Glitter (2001)–Similar to Mariah’s life story. Mariah plays the role of a younger singer who is eager to become a big star. She dates a DJ who helps her get into the music business. Starring Mariah Carey, Max Beesley and Terrence Howard. I know, I know! Everyone hates this movie but when it first came out I think I was going through a Mariah Carey phase. I love her voice and still listen to some of the songs. And I really have a love for Terrence Howard too!

• On the Line (2001)–A shy advertising employee meets his dream girl on the El train, but doesn’t remember to get her phone number, resulting in an all-out search for the mystery girl. Starring Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and Emmanuelle Chriqui. Who wouldn’t see a movie with multiple members of ‘NSYNC?!? Lance Bass was always my favorite but I love them all and one of my favorite parts is actually during the credits with Justin Timberlake! But now JT needs to start making more music!!

Are there any movies that you like that you’re too embarrassed to say??

30 Day Movie Challenge: Day #21

Day 21. Movie With Your Favorite Actor

I am totally and completely obsessed with Robert Downey Jr.!! He is by far my favorite actor! All my friends make fun of how much I love him. I don’t think I could ever really articulate how I feel…even when I wrote a paper on him for a final for one of my college courses! Haha.

• Iron Man (2008)/Iron Man 2 (2010)–When wealthy industrialist Tony Stark is forced to build an armored suit after a life-threatening incident, he ultimately decides to use its technology to fight against evil. Directed and starring Jon Favreau along with Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard, Jeff Bridges, Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson and Mickey Rourke. I remember going to see this movie and it was when I first fell in love with RDJ. Iron Man is my favorite superhero…I even have my own plastic arc reactor!!

• Sherlock Holmes (2009)–Detective Sherlock Holmes and his stalwart partner Watson engage in a battle of wits and brawn with a nemesis whose plot is a threat to all of England. Directed by Guy Ritchie. Starring Jude Law and Rachel McAdams. I’m a fan of the Sherlock Holmes books and I think this movie did it justice! Plus Jude Law as Watson made me really like him two. They are quit the pair!

• Tropic Thunder (2008)–Throughout a series of freak occurrences, a group of actors shooting a big-budget war movie are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying. Written, directed and starring Ben Stiller. Also starring Jack Black and a star-studded cast. It’s all sorts of wrong but in the best way. Just plain stupid fun.

• Heart and Souls (1993)–A businessman is reunited with the four lost souls who were his guardian angels during childhood, all with a particular purpose to joining the afterlife. Starring Charles Grodin, Alfre Woodard, Kyra Sedgwick and Tom Sizemore. It’s cute and adorable.

• Chances Are (1989)–Louie Jeffries is happily married to Corinne. On their first anniversary, Louie is killed crossing the road. Louie is reincarnated as Alex Finch, and twenty years later, fate brings Alex and Louie’s daughter, Miranda, together. It’s not until Alex is invited to Louie’s home that he begins to remember his former life, wife and best friend. Of course, there’s also the problem that he’s attracted to Louie’s/his own daughter. Starring Cybill Shepherd, Ryan O’Neal and Mary Stuart Masterson. It’s a silly story but RDJ pulls it off.

What’s a movie with your favorite actor??
