If You Want to Understand Me, Watch/Read This!

If You Want to Understand Me, Watch/Read This!

Last night, my friend Kiba posted:

“I just came up with a not especially original idea: an ‘If you want to understand me…’ list. It would include shows, books, movies, and other influences. Not that different from a list of faves, just introduced a bit differently. And it might be more skewed towards things you quote all the time. So. If you want to understand [Kiba], watch Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. If you want to understand [Kiba’s sister], watch The Princess Bride and Futurama.”

For me, the list would include:

Leverage, my favorite currently-airing TV show
Singin’ in the Rain, which makes me so very happy
Anne of Green Gables - and after you read the book, please watch the Kevin Sullivan adaptations of Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea
The Little Mermaid, Disney’s Ashman/Menken musical
Books by Christopher Golden, because they are brilliant

What books, movies, and TV shows could help me understand you? Please leave your comments at my blog, Bildungsroman!
