"Western: Isn't this an adventure?"

Remember, my genres are not hard and fast. Change them to suit yourself. I just thought that Westerns are quite different from 'ordinary' adventure movies; it's a whole other style of filming.

Anyway, I'd just like to add in a new genre to my first list (that I forgot), and that is Fantasy.

My favourite Fantasy movie is The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (what a mouthful!).

Animated: Shrek ("I'm gonna need some serious therapy after this; look at my eye twitching!" ;D)
