This is one of those polls that I wish I could select more than one answer.

All of them except for horror unless it's classic horror before onscreen bloodbaths.
Generally, I like movies with smart dialogue over the ones with a lot of special effects. Woody Allen movies, or those Bogart movies like "The Maltese Falcon."
But sometimes a good action movie is just what my faded brain needs.

I'm with badandy. I like Action/Adventure, Comedy and Science Fiction. Can't quite make up my mind which one is the winner. I don't like horror or Westerns (with some exceptions).

I'm going through a war movie phase at the moment but otherwise - all the above.

I'm with Drooler on this one. I like all of these except for recent horro movies. My idea of a good horror movie is not watching how the next nameless character gets to meet is very graphic end. There was a time when the audiences imagination was the main key to a successful horror movie. I guess Hollywood thinks that imagination is a useless thing since they clearly don't have ANY.

Well said. It's no secret that the Hollywood approach amounts to "Do what has made lots of money before. In fact, just drive it right into the ground!"
Booooorrrring.

The question is probably "what is your favorite?" Even then that's a tough question.
I generally watch comedy, sci-fi and drama.

I put 'Other' solely based on the fact that my favorite genre is mostly films that are foreign. So, I'll just assume that maybe 'Foreign' could be placed as other. Oh and by the way, foreign as in meaning not from the USA. I am extremely in to Asian films, mostly being from Japan and Korea but I also like some Hong Kong stuff. The genre within from these countries varies, but my favs are horror, sci fi, and action.

I don't necessarily mind remakes or sequels. I've seen a couple that were pretty good and some that were better. It's true that sometime Hollywood doesn't know when to stop. I'm dating myself here but although Jaws is a classic. I stillenjoyed Jaws 2. The problem is that they made 2 others after Jaws 2.
Another big problem is that if you decide to remake a classic. Why do you have to rewrite the entire script. It's a remake so all you need to do is modernize the story or alter parts that no longer make sense. There are quite a few geniuses in Hollywood who think they can re-invent the light bulb. They can't even screw one in so you can forget the rest.

Other genres? What do you mean? There's non-porn movies being made? Knock me over with a feather!

I love Science Fiction movies, The first three Star Wars are my favorite movies of all time, and I love movies that have time traveling involved.

I agree with badandy400 this poll needs more than one option. I love action/adventure but I also enjoy a good comedy. Anything that has good entertaining values.
