Top Five...

So I saw 'High Fidelity' with John Cusack this weekend (among other things, like the Super Bowl, which I only care about as a social thing)...

The movie was hilarious, and Jack Black and Joan Cusack were vying to see who could steal more scenes (that is until in 2003 they got their own movie, School of Rock.) But anyway. John Cusack's character was obsessed with, among other things, making 'top five' lists of...well, everything. A major part of the narrative was set around him recapping his top five worst breakups.

Another thing he said was that music and movies and television shows that people like say a lot about them. And he's right. I know that when I go over peoples' places, I always look at their movies...and I know I have friends who look at mine.

So, in no particular order...top five movies:
1. Back to the Future
2. A League of Their Own
3. Good Will Hunting
4. Moonstruck
5. Shakespeare in Love

And top five CDs that I own:
1. Rent (counts once, though it's 2 CDs)
2. tick, tick...BOOM
3. Rockapella in Concert
4. Songs in the Attic, Billy Joel
5. Joshua Tree, U2

Top five tv shows (on right now)
1. Deadwood
2. 24
3. Scrubs
4. Rescue Me
5. The Wire

Top five tv shows...ever.
1. My So-Called Life
2. Deadwood
3. Six Feet Under
4. The West Wing
5. Sex and the City
