Film.

There is something absolutely wonderful about epic films. I certainly don't mean cheesy movies that the masses go to see simply to kill time; I mean those pieces of art that make you stop and just... breathe... wow. I love those kinds of film; particularly the epics.
Peter Jacksons Lord of the Rings are undoubtedly my very favorite films, and i have no doubt that one the Hobbit is released, it will very likely find a place in that circle of admiration as well. Another movie that takes my breath away every time i see it is Tarsem Singh's The Fall. No words can truly describe in full the glory that that masterpiece is.... every scene is an explosion of beauty and imagination. Other Films that i adore are war epics, but not always the military side of the war... i like to see the side of the survivors. The Pianist by Roman Polinsky is jaw dropping, just as Empire of the Sun by Steven Speilburg. Speilburg is GOD of movies. Every film of his that I have seen is unbelievable. hands down. I guess that if the movie is over two and a half hours long and full of period clothing, battles, adventure or beauty, then i am bound to like it. Titanic. Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Harry Potter. Hook. Star Wars. Indiana Jones. the list goes on and on....
