If your life was a movie
 
If Your Life Was a Movie, What Genre Would It Be?
Don't know? Need help? Take the quiz.

Sundae 04-08-2008 04:26 AM

Indie Movie apparently:

But HM says my life is a soap opera - improbable at times, capable of lightning fast changes and farcical situations..

Indie Flick.

I want it to star Martha Plimpton or Fairuza Balk.

glatt 04-08-2008 07:36 AM

It's a cross between a documentary and a do-it-yourself show. Jeff Goldblum stars.

Dana, we're in the same movie! :)

But I like Sundae's movies...I like indie film, but I do like black comedies, too.

What a great line!:notworthy

SteveDallas 04-08-2008 10:14 AM

I matched Dana and Shawnee! (For exemplary movies I'd have picked Lost In Translation and American Splendor.)

The Movie Of Your Life Is A Cult Classic

Quirky, offbeat, and even a little campy - your life appeals to a select few.
But if someone's obsessed with you, look out! Your fans are downright freaky.

kerosene 04-08-2008 11:15 AM

I was an Indie movie, too. I don't know if I have seen any of those but they sound interesting.

She was in The Craft and Waterboy. I love Waterboy.

I was an indie film. What the heck are those?

Shawnee123 04-08-2008 11:59 AM

Indie film=independent film.

Movies produced outside the Hollywood studio system, and "art" movies.

lookout123 04-08-2008 12:00 PM

She was also in American History X. Although her character was deplorable, her image was divine.

I was an indie too. I'd slit my wrists if I actually thought I was living Napoleon Dynamite though.

Shawnee123 04-08-2008 12:02 PM

Oooh, American History X. What a great, if hard to watch at times, movie.

NOW I know who she is...good actress!

Cicero 04-08-2008 03:48 PM

Black Comedy- But I already knew that.....
:)
They are going to have to mix it up though, it's an Indie, black comedy, meets horrific after school special.

warch 04-08-2008 06:35 PM

Cult classic.
Your best movie matches: Office Space, Showgirls, The Big Lebowski

Although my life has some rules...

spudcon 04-08-2008 07:32 PM

Quiz sez Black Comedy, but I'm caucasian, so the quiz must be wrong. If I were king, my life would be "It's a Wonderful Life," redone to be a Dirty Harry movie.

Life with meaning is highly over-rated.

btw...it's too easy to manipulate the results of that test. :P


My friends are characters yet I am quite boringly normal.
I would say indie drama/dark humor.

Bull shit Splode , Your Life is a Porn Flick !!!!

Elspode 04-09-2008 07:39 PM

Gosh...I know so much more about myself now that I've taken several of these tests:

My inner pop princess is Kelly Clarkson
I am disturbingly profound (instead of profoundly disturbed)
I am a perfect speller
My love element is Earth
I am not prejudiced
I am a Georgia O'Keefe painting

lookout123 04-10-2008 03:22 PM

I used to say that I wanted to live Ferris Bueller's life. It was all one big adventure. Now that I'm older I know for a fact that I'm in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Unfortunately I'm playing the part of Ed Rooney.

Sundae 04-10-2008 03:31 PM

My inner pop princess is Kylie (I ate her whole)
I am disturbed
I am a perfectly flawless liar
My love element is mud
I am not prejudiced, except against other people
My psche is a Dali painting

Cloud 04-10-2008 04:05 PM

ahem! I believe that's supposed to be "If your life were a move. . . ", so I'll pick Eats, Shoots, and Leaves. (which hasn't been made into a movie, yet, but ohshitohwell)

Sundae 04-10-2008 04:07 PM

Nope, movie is singular, therefore was is correct.
As in:
The group was shown round the castle.
The children were shown round the castle.

Cloud 04-10-2008 04:08 PM

no, it's subjunctive tense--referring to something that has not happened or may not happen.

Totally pwned, thank you Cloud.

:grouphug:

footfootfoot 04-11-2008 05:51 PM

Was=past tense
were=conditional

If your life were a movie.

Was would only be correct if the sentence meant "had your life been a movie"

Just sharing a little bit of the grammar queen's endless attempts at getting me to speak the english good.

Oh yeah, and by the way, keep your elbows off the table,
and quit walking across my nice clean floor!

footfootfoot 04-11-2008 05:52 PM

ahem, i'll read further before posting...

lushchocolateswirl 04-11-2008 06:27 PM

Oh great!!! a black comedy . why am I not surprised by this:right:
