Pacific Rim whenever I want goosebumps for an entire sitting. It’s something only slow mechanical metal, electric guitars, and Guillermo del Toro can accomplish.

One of my favourite movies

Hmmm, kind of a broad thing.

When I think comfort films, it's about the movies you watch when you're sick or need a bit of a boost. Conventionally, that would be the Willy Wonka movie (the Wilder one).

But there's also Rocky Horror, Man of La Mancha, and Arsenic & Old Lace that are go-to for when I'm sick, or just suck of the world. I don't know how unconventional those are, though.

There's also Godzilla movies, typically the older ones.

John Dies at the End, but the audiobook even moreso.

David Lynch's 'Elephant Man'.

Godzilla franchise, other Toho kaiju films, and the Gamera franchise.

Probably a bunch, but Lake Placid is the first one that came to mind.

The 1986 Transformers movie. I've been watching it since I was like 5. Sometimes I just work my way through the dialogue in my head when I'm bored.

I’ll throw on In the Mood for Love for the gorgeous atmosphere, colors, soundtrack, etc., never mind that it’s about two people trying to figure out how their respective spouses’ affair started.

Highlander - I know the dialogue off by heart and can do better accents too.

Galaxy Quest - The best Star Trek movie ever... The squiddies are such great sidekicks, so relatable, and you hate to let them down, the catchphrases are actually good: "Never give up, never surrender!" "By Grabthar's Hammer, you shall be avenged..."
