Versatile Blogger Award

The Versatile Blogger AwardWow, another award. Seriously this blog is turning out to be like one Oscar hungry beast. This time, I have been nominated for my sixth Versatile Blogger Award, courtesy of Ashley over at Box Office Buzz. Please check her site out as it rocks beyond all comprehension.

Now for facts about me. Seriously I need to brush up on my self-evaluation to make sure I can come up with interesting facts about me for all of you.

  1. I’ve been known to be very cynical at times.
  2. I believe that everyone has a dark side to them.
  3. My three favourite actresses of the moment are Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore and Marion Cotillard.
  4. My eyes are a strange mix of blue and green.
  5. I do believe that weather can affect a person.
  6. I’m a fan of using alliteration when writing.
  7. As of this minute, I am watching England vs New Zealand in cricket.

Now for my five lucky nominees.

Charlie's Angels, DOA: Dead or Alive, Guilty Pleasures, Honey, Resident Evil, The Reaping

A few months back, I uploaded a suggestions page so that all you amazing followers could contribute ideas for future posts. An interesting one came from the fabulous Melissa, she suggested I do a post on my movie guilty pleasures. Movies that are just rot and are so bad, but I can’t help but love.

So here’s five of my shameful guilty pleasures:

Charlie’s Angels

Charlie's Angels

Thin plot? Check. Cheesy lines? Check. Babes in hot outfits? Definite Check. The motion picture reboot of the sassy trio of females fighting crime has a story about as interesting as watching a snail cross the room. But somehow, the hot chicks kicking ass, barely there outfits and pop soundtrack always makes this flick a soft spot for me.

The Reaping

The Reaping Poster

This derivative horror movie attempts to blend spooky horror with religious prophecies. Yet it turns out completely illogical in the end and the actors here are slumming it big time. Despite this, there is something I found compelling about the bayou atmosphere and strange music.

Resident Evil

Resident Evil

I’ve written about Resident Evil before on this blog and I remember describing it as a popcorn movie. It isn’t a film that engages the head or mind, it just delivers full-on action and horror. It’s not going to be remembered as a seminal work of cinema, but it works as a popcorn movie.

D.O.A: Dead or Alive

D.O.A.

Yet another flick of scantily clad honeys kicking ass and showing off their moves, D.O.A : Dead or Alive is the definition of guilty pleasure in my book.

Honey

Honey

This urban dance movie has a story that is just saccharine rubbish. Yet I can’t deny the dancing is good and Jessica Alba is stunning throughout.

I hope you’ve all enjoyed reading this list of guilty pleasures.
