Music. Without music, movies have no atmosphere.

The bigger the better - my favorite is a Newfoundland. Little dogs are yappy twits.
Breakfast: Bacon and eggs or hot cereal (ie. oatmeal)

Bacon and eggs, most emphatically! I hate hot cereal.
Red or Blue?
It's a metaphor of human bloody existence, a dragon. And if that wasn't bad enough, it's also a bloody great hot flying thing.

depends, but I'd usually pick a comedy.
Read the book before watching the movie, or vice-versa?

Well, I'll pick a book over a movie any day, but I prefer to see the movie first because the chances I'll like it are better then. I saw the movie
The Horse Whisperer and thought it was good. Then I read t he book. Then I thought the movie sucked.
If I had read the book first and then gone to the movie, I would have been cranky-pants through the whole thing.
Read a book or Listen to a book read on audiotape?
