My preference is for: action movies, scifi, weird foreign films (I actually enjoyed the Holy Mountain), nunsploitation, zombie, slasher/horror, noir, kung-fu, samurai, and any film with really good direction and action.

How about this one:
"Gooba gabba gooba gabba, one of us. One of us."
Actually, apart from the cigarette lighting scene, it's not that good (you don't realize how important actual actors are to the telling of a story until you see this one).
Speaking of cigarette lighting, ever see Best Years of Our Lives? It's a singularly deep movie about WWII made a couple years after the fighting was over.

There's a fair amount of overlap between these lists and my late collection, and quite a few on here I've never heard of and am going to check out.
Currently I'm working on getting all those nunsploitation films back. Once I've got my "must haves" back in hand, I'll start grabbing the stuff on here I haven't seen.

Well, you broke my heart. First suggestion that you shat over. I bet you've hardly seen any.

I've seen maybe half a dozen, all critically acclaimed and none of them worth a damn. Don't ask me their names, I really couldn't tell you.
It's the mandatory dance numbers I can't stand.

I like a good Bollywood epic from time to time. The music, the schmaltzy plot, the dancing, the sets - it's just fun. On the other hand, there are some pretty impressive non-Bollywood flicks coming out of India now, and I'm enjoying the hell out of them.
