Day 2 - a film you like that starts with the first letter of your name: Zoolander
Day 5 - a film where a character has the job you want: The Company You Keep
I don't really have a proper answer for this one so it's less 'the' job & more just 'a' job.

Day 8 - a film where you liked the soundtrack more: Dark Phoenix
The Dark Phoenix & Xperiments from Dark Phoenix albums are both just fabulous. Dark Phoenix has an epic score while Xperiments goes another level deeper and gets absolutely wild.

Day 9 - a film you hate that everyone else liked:
I don't hate the 3 The Lord of the Rings films, I just find them to be bland, overly-watered down & uninteresting. Well made & casted as they may be, I really don't like them.
Granted, I haven't watched them in a while.

Day 10 - your favourite superhero film: Logan but if we're talking superhero films in a more literal sense than Captain America: The First Avenger
Day 11 - a film you like from your least favourite genre: I'm not usually into romantic comedy drama-type films but I really liked The Half of It. It's a bit flimsy & basic at times but it fundamentally works.
Day 14 - a film that gave you depression: my 1st choice for this category is being saved for another day so I'll go with Pride (2014). The happy ending briefly but flawlessly slid to being really sad and that moment stuck with me.
Day 15 - a film that makes you feel happy: Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase.
It may seem from this thread that I'm really into Scooby-Doo but the 1st time was just because it had over 5 words in the title whereas this is one that I still genuinely really like.

Day 16 - a film that is personal to you: Thomas and the Magic Railroad. This is a strange film &, while some of it is just cringe, I'm really into it. I mean... Alec Baldwin is in it giving 100% as Mr Conductor who literally preaches at trains & Diesel 10 is an hilarious villain.
Day 17 - favourite film sequel: my immediate 1st choice would be The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part which is, to me, the perfect sequel. Since I already used it on Day 6, my next choice would probably be Blade Runner 2049.
Day 18 - film that stars your favourite actor/actress: not sure who I'd pick as my favourite but Jake Gyllenhaal is a fantastic actor & his performance in Nightcrawler is absolutely brilliant.
Day 20 - a film that changed your life: Under the Skin obliterated any passion, love or respect I had for anything I'd ever written/planned to write so I guess that's something.
Day 21 - a film that you dozed off in: I don't think I've ever fallen asleep during a film.
Day 23 - a film made by a director that is dead: The Bridge on the River Kwai is an extraordinary film directed by David Lean.
Day 26 - a film you like that is adapted from somewhere: Ran by Akira Kurosawa adapts aspects of a Japanese parable and King Lear.
Day 28 - a film that made you feel uncomfortable: the sound design on Hugo Weaving chewing really just set me on edge (which is kinda the point but it still applies).
Day 29 - a film that makes you want to fall in love: Little Women. I can't begin to express how not ready I was for the moment when Jo March said she was lonely.
Day 30 - the film with your favourite ending: Collateral
