I'm 35. I have a degree in Cinema that I love but do not use. So I watch a lot of movies of pretty much any genre. My favorites are crime/film noir and my least favorites are lame romantic comedies. It'd be pretty awesome to meet a girl who wasn't afraid of subtitled or black and white movies.
I also read a lot (both comic books and novels), listen to many different kinds of music (I currently have 60,000+ songs on my hard drive) and play video games. Yeah I'm a geek. :-)
I guess the last thing that needs addressed here is that I have cerebral palsy due to complications from being born two months premature. I use a power wheelchair to get around. I live on my own. Ummmm I'm not sure what else to say on this subject, so if you have a question feel free to ask.
Lists of things I like:
Movies: Favorites are hard to pick because I've seen so many. I love Film Noir both of the classic period like Out of the Past, Sunset BLVD, The Setup and Kiss of Death and neo noirs like LA Confidential, Chinatown, Memento and Le Samouai. I like Kubrick, Gilliam and Jeunet. Christopher Nolan and Alfonso Cuarón are my two favorite working directors.
Books: Novels: Catch 22, The Big Nowhere, The Postman Always Rings Twice, The Thin Man, Great Expectations, The Book of Skulls, Stars My Destination. They Shoot Horses Don't They?, All of Chandler's Marlowe novels, Pop. 1280, The Killer Inside Me, The Lovely Bones, Ask the Dust, Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlins series, anything by Charlie Huston. I'm currently really into Joe R. Lansdale.
Comics/Graphic Novels: Jar of Fools, Scott Pilgrim, Box Office Poision/Tricked, Queen & Country, Watchmen, 100 Bullets, Fables, Y the Last Man, Losers, Transmetropolitan, The Walking Dead, Loveless, Sin City, Hellboy, Marvel's Ultimate line, good Batman stories.
Music: Starfler 59, Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails, Radiohead, Beck, Pixies, Tom Waits, Neil Young, Breeders, Frank Black, Shins, Soundgarden, STP, Stooges, Joy Division, Johnny Cash, The Zombies, The Kinks, Rancid, Helmet, Lucinda Williams, Ryan Adams, The Shins, Tony Younblood, Spoon, Okkervil River, The Cars, Guided By Voices, Blonde Redhead, Brainiac, Enon, Dinosaur Jr., Queens of the Stone Age, The Replacements, Big Star, Uncle Tupelo, Cake, Minute Men, Yo La Tengo and much more....
TV: Battlestar Galactica, The Shield, any of the Dini/Timm DC comics animated series, Curb Your Enthusiam, Austin City Limits, King of the Hill, Seinfeld, Conan, Fringe, Sons of Anarchy, Mildred Pierce, The Walking Dead, The Killing.
Sports: MLB: Cardinals NFL: Rams
Lastly, just because I'm disabled it does NOT I'm looking for a mother, a nurse or a therapist. I'm very much NOT paralyzed or asexual. I am funny and smart.
check out my college thesis film It's a kind of fictionalized comedy about me.
