Pens, Thespians, and Words Oscar Awards :)

Well, if you are like me and want to me an actor(or just love movies), you might have watched the Oscars last weekend. I sometimes miss it, but last Sunday I decided that, you know, I should watch it this year. It's always fun to watch and, even though my favorite films are hardly EVER nominated(seriously, if it were up to me, ALL the Star Wars movies and Lord of the Rings films would have gotten Best Picture), I do like seeing who wins. So, since movies I do love never get the chance to be nominated, I thought I'd do so here :)

So, what do you think of my Oscar awards and what films would you have nominated? :)

And since my friend James from JandJ Productions had the Sunflower Award on his blog and tagged anyone who wanted to answer his questions, I thought I'd do so here

What is your favorite movie/TV/anime/video game soundtrack (and no, musicals do not count)?: My favorite soundtracks are- Star Wars, Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, Harry Potter, The Avengers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Doctor Who/Torchwood, Attack on Titan, Romeo X Juliet, and various Studio Ghibli movies. 

What are your opinions on the supposed "classic" films such as The Godfather, Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. If you have not seen any of them, do you ever plan to watch them?: I haven't seen too many classic films as of yet, but I definitely plan to at some point since, as an aspiring actor, they will be important for me to see(though I have seen some classic films). 

What is your opinion of anime?: I really like it! :) It's a different way of telling stories, which I find entertaining and awesome :) 

What is your favorite anime? (if you have not seen anime, what is your favorite animated series): 

For TV series, definitely Attack on Titan(Shingeki no Kyojin)- it's amazing, I love the characters, plot, music, and world. Basically, I'm really obsessed with it. I also love Romeo X Juliet, Death Note, Fruits Basket, and Princess Tutu. I also plan on watching several other animes soon :). 

For movies, probably a tie between my top three favorite Studio Ghibli films. My favorite anime films are- Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Tales from Earthsea, Children Who Chase Lost Voices, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, The Secret World of Arietty, Howl's Moving Castle, The Cat Returns, Whispers of the Heart, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Kiki's Delivery Service, My Neighbor Tortoro, and Laputa: Castle in the Sky.
