Action/Advenure & Comedy

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

Comedy. It would be horror, if more horror films were done right.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

some action movies are just too fast for my ADD mind to keep up with.

 

[The Dark Defender]

Horror, easily more consistently enjoyable than any other genre.

I adore great action/adventure epics, but there aren't nearly as many of them.

I like all genres really, but as Raiders Of The Lost Ark is my favourite film, I'm voting for action and adventure!

[Flame on!]

good thread.

Correction, rubbish thread for multiple reasons.

A. No-one actually cares what your favorite genre is. Case in point: There has yet to be any sort of conversational undertakings so far.

B. No-one actually has a favorite genre. They just have favorite movies

C. How anyone can catagorically decide that they 'don't like sci-fi/horror/etc' is incredibly stupid.

D. Genre is too broad a concept to pigeon hole into 4 or 5 catagories.
