The Alphabet Meme!

The other day, Fletch tagged me and about 7,000 other people to do this meme he made, which is basically an A-to-Z of your favorite films, or your favorite film of each letter. I knew this style of meme was familiar, because I did it well over a year ago. LOL. Oh well. The rules:
1. Pick one film to represent each letter of the alphabet.

2. The letter "A" and the word "The" do not count as the beginning of a film's title, unless the film is simply titled A or The, and I don't know of any films with those titles.

3. Return of the Jedi belongs under "R," not "S" as in Star Wars Episode IV: Return of the Jedi. This rule applies to all films in the original Star Wars trilogy; all that followed start with "S." Similarly, Raiders of the Lost Ark belongs under "R," not "I" as in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. Conversely, all films in the LOTR series belong under "L" and all films in the Chronicles of Narnia series belong under "C," as that's what those filmmakers called their films from the start. In other words, movies are stuck with the titles their owners gave them at the time of their theatrical release. Use your better judgement to apply the above rule to any series/films not mentioned.

4. Films that start with a number are filed under the first letter of their number's word. 12 Monkeys would be filed under "T."

5. Link back to Blog Cabins in your post so that I can eventually type "alphabet meme" into Google and come up #1, then make a post where I declare that I am the King of Google.

6. If you're selected, you have to then select 5 more people.
Wow, those are some long ass rules. Anywayz, here's mine...

Atonement
Billy Elliot
Children of Men
The Dreamers
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Fanny and Alexander
The Graduate
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
If....
Juno
Kill Bill Vol. 1
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Moulin Rouge!
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
Orlando
The Prince of Egypt
Queen Christina
Rear Window
The Sweet Hereafter
Three Colors
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg
V for Vendetta
Witness for the Prosecution
X-Men
Y Tu Mamá También
Zodiac

Some of those are fillers, especially towards the end, and it ain't exact, but I'm really loving it overall. It really looks like it's a good representation of me. It's like a young, depressing, overlong, confusing, overtly sexual rebellious mess. Just like me! Okay, maybe not the overtly sexual part. :-\

Now, lets see, who should I tag? Hmm...

Marcy @ Because I Saw the Film
mB @ A Blog Next Door
Matt @ From the Front Row
Joe @ Low Resolution
James @ Rants of a Diva

I'm glad I live in a world where random.org can make all my decisions for me! And if you're insulted that I didn't tag you and/or would like to do it anyways, please do it! I'm just some random teenage idiot that you're paying attention to at this moment. I don't matter. xoxo.

5 people love me:

Ah, but yours was not a meme! ;) I did a search and didn't see anything like it, so sorry if I accidentally stole the idea.

J.D. said...

LOL, it's no problem. I was just noting it. ;)

Reel Whore said...

Moulin Rouge! woohoo!

I'm surprised Nausicaä made your N selection. :-p

J.D. said...

So am I, OMG?! It totally could've been Not Another Teen Movie, but the majority overruled. Whodathunkit?

Not Another Teen Movie IS some kind of awesome.
