The ultimate personality test
It’s not strange to disagree about movies that are wildly different, and there are surely a few random movies that are very polarizing. What I find most interesting is which movie people consider the best movie from a particular director, as it is usually very telling and polarizing in a different way, so to this point I will propose a new personality test where you reblog your favorite movie from each of these directors:
- Joel Coen: No Country for Old Men, The Big Lebowski, Fargo, The Hudsucker Proxy, Miller’s Crossing, Raising Arizona, etc
- Wes Anderson: The Darjeeling Limited, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Royal Tennenbaums, Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, etc
- Hal Ashby: Being There, Shampoo, Harold and Maude, etc
- Kevin Smith: Zack and Miri Make a Porno, Dogma, Chasing Amy, Mallrats, Clerks, etc
- Quentin Tarantino: Grindhouse, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, etc
My results: Miller’s Crossing, Bottle Rocket, Being There, Mallrats, Reservoir Dogs. Judge accordingly.
- Lebowski (you have no idea my obsessions with that movie… license plate covers, “action” figures, books…)
- Bottle Rocket. Don’t ask why.
- Harold and Maude. I mean, c’mon.
- I have to admit Zack and Miri. I enjoy all the others, but they each have some element that makes me skip past them when I’m bored and want to watch something.
- Pulp Fiction (if only for the soundtrack)
I’ve been seeing versions of this with seven choices, but I can’t seem to find the standardised six and seven, so fuck it.
