I think Thriller for me.

I love Fantasy, Thriller, Action and Adventure, I love when an LGBT movie is done amazingly well, as well.

I've chosen coming of age drama, as my favourite film of all time, The Breakfast Club, falls within this genre. Although I also really like the comedy and thriller categories too.

I'd feel odd picking anything but comedy. At the end of the day comedies are what I'm taking to the desert island.

I love most movies but maybe I enjoy Adventure types the most.

I enjoy horror mostly. I like a bit of suspense.

I'd have Thriller then maybe Gangster and Social Drama

Umm probably between action and comedy, those are normally my favourite movies and the ones I can watch again and again, although I do like gangster films and epics as well when I can be bothered to sit there and watch it all

the 2 categories I'd be least likely to pick are horrow, don't give them the time of day, and instinctively probably Sci-Fi, but then again if that includes Star Wars films and stuff like Avatar, which was completely amazing, I'd have to rethink.

Gangster films are always the best but I voted for Crime before I saw that, thought they'd both be the same. Thriller, Action and Comedy aswell.

Will watch pretty much any genre though if the films supposed to be good

oh sod off with your genres Niamh. if a film's good it's good. :idc: -picks arbitrarily-

:nono:don't speak to sexy Niamh like that or i slapper your faceer :hmph:

..I like old black and white movies best...all of them

Horror is my favourite.

I don't really have a favourite genre. I like all genres apart from Gangster films, I can't stand them at all.

I like everything, except political movies. They bore me! :sleep:

porn

Social dramas and thrillers I love. :lovedup:

Horror for me plus action and adventure,I like old movies too like the Hitchcock ones.

Comedy. But love Horror/ Thriller also. Hate Dramas

Horror or Psychological Thrillers.

Good stuff.

Comedy

anything but horror

Horror, Comedy, Crime/Action and Thriller.

I like films from most genres though.
