I love watching movies that involve detectives and investigations, especially those with FBI agents.

Every Christmas is set for Die Hard movie marathons. However, I am always ready for a Marvel movie (where I tear apart the movies compared to the comic books), or a Bourne Legacy marathon. It always depends on the mood.

I love movies with a good storyline. So even if it is not action packed, once the storyline is good I will continue watching. Although I really love rom-coms and action movies.

Action movies are my favorite genre, too - especially the superhero subgenre. I'm a die-hard Marvel fan, but Nolan's Batman trilogy wasn't bad, either. I also like fantasy and sci-fi, but like it best when multiple genera are crossed, like with Inception (sci-fi/action/). Do you guys like genre crossovers?

I'm a huge movie fanatic. Anything that has to do with action films or even films based off books are good too. Comparing the film and book can be quite interesting because you pay attention to small details. However, over time I have found put that if is important to separate both film and book. It is not adequate to judge a piece of work based on the other, they should be individual in a sense. I'm looking forward to watching Black Panther! It looks epic!

Had a bit of an spontaneous epiphany after exiting cinema with my older boy the other day, that I am one lucky woman because I get to see all the Avengers, Star Wars and Star Treks and absolutely no Barbie or My Little Pony movies, because I have all boys... :)

I love a good action movie, especially one with some comedy.

Everyone except horror works for me, though I prefer detective and crime solving movies - the likes of Elementary and Sherlock.
