CK,
I hate to admit this (being a male), but I love Jane Austen books. I've read Emma, Pride and Prejudice, and Sense and Sensibility.
Love your Monty Python responses to the color questions.
14. - a fellow Aries, you rule
19. - I haven't seen A Very Long Engagment yet, but loved Amelie and pretty much anything from Jeunet (delicatessen, city of lost children).
27. - I'm definitely a sci-fi nut like you. Haven't watched the new Battlestar Gallactica yet but my brother loves it.
Sadie,
I hope you'll be doing the survey also?

Surely. I'll do it tomorrow. :)
dbackdad,
Very impressed that you like Jane Austen. I've read all her books.
You must also like Vonnegut.

P&P is my first. It's been on my shelf for ages & as I enjoyed the recent film so much I thought I'd give it a try.

Thought you might. One of my fave bits in 'Holy Grail'

AVLE is brilliant. Heart wrenching though - so have some hankies ready.. Audrey Tatou is amazing.

You HAVE to see BSG. It rocks!
Isabella said, "You must also like Vonnegut"
I do, but have not read as much as I should have. Just Breakfast of Champions and Slaughterhouse-Five.
I dunno... street tar is pretty bad, but my dog can clear a room ;) I do like American Idiot a lot too. There's too albums & movies to list for me.
