You are extremely friendly, cute and respond quickly to private messages... oh wait, your movies, right? Right, right...

You are a time traveler. A migrant soul. Fantasy is something real and important to you. You find the experience of the exotic as something intoxicating. This site is actually a good resource for you. You should live a life of travel.

The movies you chose are all quite nostalgic. Marking the passing of some sort of golden age, including innocence. But I wouldn't say you are particularly nostalgic or cynical. No, maybe the link has to do with the elaborate beauty and design of these bygone worlds. Gothic/Classic fetish? I think the appeal for you is to reach out, to touch, to sensually experience the past, the foreign or the exotic. Marble and velvet and warm skin appeal to you in an powerfully erotic sense.

Your boyfriends love you because of your sensual nature. So it's up to you to choose wisely for your own satisfaction. I would warn you about this: don't fall for the exotic beauty of appearances over genuine substance. For example, I could recommend much grittier but less romantic and formulaic versions of all the movies you cited above. Try Clair Denis' Trouble Every Day. It's a modern vampire story by a woman director, sensual, but also brutal, bloody and tragic. Also, Mizoguchi told the story of geisha's more authentically and tragically and not from a white person's point of view in Sisters of Gion.

Don't surrender the power of your imagination or sensuality; but risk losing your beautiful illusions if they can be replaced by hard truths.

Honestly, couldn't resist putting up Interstellar. The science in the movie in certain parts is so spot on. Also, the father-daughter dynamic reminds me of my dad and I. Funny enough, the roles could be interchangeable but he'd most likely always be Matthew Mcconaughey's character.

Early Star Treks were also a huge inspiration. Memento was a great brain teaser too and Babel.

I know you said three but my interests cross many areas.

This is a cool thread idea.

Shhhh. Don't influence my fortune.

Am I the only one who thinks 3 movies is unreasonably low? Because I'm worried my life won't be judged on the fact that I've watched Pitch Black 10 times, even though it's not one of my top 3 movies. BUT IT'S IMPORTANT.
