I go through phases with movies. Sometimes I like them quite a bit. Other times, I can't muster up the attention span to last more than 10 minutes. I prefer movies that are easy to watch and don't require TOO much thinking for the most part. To me, the purpose of a movie is to be entertained. I think all week at work. I have my brain on when I am caring for Cheeks. When I sit down in front of the TV, I'd prefer to be brain dead :)
That being said, my favorite genre of movie is the American Musical. I love how disjointed from reality they are. A lot of people say that musicals are so "unreal", but isn't that the point of the movies? To take you away into a fantasy world?
My favorite movie of all time is Singing in the Rain. It's funny, it's creative, and it has great music! For those who have never tried it, I highly recommend it.
I've also been enjoying a lot of the new musicals that have come out over the past few years. Chicago, Rent, Mamma Mia, and Hairspray were all fantastic.

Rent and Mamma Mia=WONDERFUL! I am a fan of musicals as well, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers probably being my favorite.
My brother in law likes that one!
