Writers block sucks. So have a list of my favourite films.

I'm just not sure what to write. I wanted to do a heartfelt blog post but I'm honestly not sure I want to, I feel like it would be whiny and boring. So I am going to reveal my top 10 ish films that I love in no particular order.

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels 
Snatch 
RocknRolla 
These three films are my staple films to watch, classic gangsta movies by Guy Richie, absolutly perfect and some rather lovely men as well. Ruthless violence, all conected and amazing acting what more could you want from a film? Layer cake also fits in with these films but I did not enjoy it, for me the film was compeltly ruined by how it ended.

From Dusk Till Dawn 
Has always been one of my favourite films, its an early Quentin Tarantino film, in which he stars as Richie the little brother of Seth (George Clooney) the film follows the two brothers, who are criminals and take a family hostage, they take shelter in an old bar for the night unknown to them its a popular vampire hang out. Safe to say all hell breaks lose. Its full of blood, guts, gore and hilarious moments.

Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging
Love, Rosie
Whip It
Amazing girly films, perfect for when too much drama is going on in my life, I put on my favourite pjs, get my duvet and some ice cream and I'm set. I would normally watch all of these films if I'm feeling particularly stressed out... On a side note, my all time favourite book is Where Rainbows End by Cecilia Ahern, Love, Rosie is based on this book. I honestly thought I'd hate the film because I knew it wouldn't be like the book (which is set out in letter, email and text form) I knew this would be hard to recreate in the film, but the film was lovely. The director and writer added their own twist to a wonderful book and I can honestly say it's one of my favourite adaptations of all time.

Back to the Future 
Pretty in Pink
Say Anything
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Breakfast Club 
My favourite 80's films, a perfect mixture of Sci-fi, romcom and damn right crazy, pretty much sums up my love of anything 80's. All a must watch.


X-men: The Last Stand
Guardians of the Galaxy
Zombieland 
Of course at least one Marvel film made the list. To be honest all of the X-men should be on this list but I have restricted myself to just the one. I adore the last stand because the Phonix aka Jean Grey is boss in it, and she happens to be my all time favoutite superhero (don't tell Wolverine because I love him too). Let's not forget the master pieces that are Guardians of the Galaxy (dude a walking kinder talking and dancing tree) and of course Zombieland, this film for me know matter how I am feeling can change my mood in an instance, what more coudl you honestly want from a film? Bill Murray YES Emma Stone YES Woody Harleson YES and of course Jesse Eisenburg, a glorious film.


UP
I had to have one Disney Pixar film on here, and of course it had to be UP, I adore this film, it makes me go through all the emotions I can muster. And yes I always without a doubt cry at the beginning, middle and end of this film, its a rollercoaster of emotions okay.



Perks of Being a Wallflower 
This is one of my all time favourite films and books. Must read and must see.

Others that deserve a mention are
Lucky number Sleven 
Book of ELI
Jack 
Big 
Forrest Gump 
Dirty Dancing 
Footloose 
Pretty Women 

Okay I went way over my top 10 but hey I've seen a lot of amazing films. There are too many good films to write in one list without making it too long. But there were a few of them and my reasons behind it. I hope you like this blog, I'm hoping writers block will solve itself soon because I have a book to finish.
