Movies; watching and making them. Here's the trailer for a film I was in--I'm in the yellow golf shirt if you blink you might miss me, BUT, Dean Cain and Steve Talley are in it! ..
Books. Theatre. Going and participating. I love hiking, camping, traveling, and chillaxing at the beach with my homies. Video Games. Football, and basketball to watch and to play
I've also recently discovered Golf, and Snorkeling.
I discovered Snorkeling from doing this short
Music
I love a lot of different genres. Mainly the four R's. Rap, Reggae, Rock and R&B. All-time favorite artists include: Bob Marley, Beatles, Led Zeppelin, 2pac, Buju Banton, Jimi Hendrix, Jay-Z and Marvin Gaye. Rap: Wu-Tang Clan, Redman, Common, Kanye West, OUTKAST, Eminem, Busta Rhymes 50cent, Xzibit, Roots, DMX, Mos Def, Snoop, etc.
Rock: Chili Peppers, Weezer, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains (can you tell when I went to high school yet?), etc. Classic Rock: Bob Dylan, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Clapton, The Police, Doors, etc. R&B: Prince, Alicia Keys, Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Sam & Dave, Smokey Robinson, etc. I love those old school jams and the oldies too. I even like classical music--Beethoven being my favorite. I could list all the obscure reggae bands I like (ie: The Maytals, Burning Spear, Gregory Issacs, The Meditations, Big Mountain) but noone would know who I'm talking about...

Television
I heart cable.
Speaking of television--check out this commercial
object width="560" height="340">..
some shows I really like are:
Family Guy, South Park, Malcolm in the Middle,Robot Chicken
I really like The Office (both American & British),
30 Rock is hilarious. I really like MAD MEN, and LOST.
I still have to watch the last couple of seasons of Shield.
And, there's some shows I'd like to eventually catch up on like 24, I never watched one episode but everyone raves about it--so when I watch it on DVD--it better not suck! I can't freakin' stand the big reality shows which I won't mention here--you know their names. there are some exceptions to the rule though--So you think you can dance is actually the one reality show that really seems to celebrate art (of dance). I also hate all that CSI shit (so formulaic), and all the Law & Orders. I do like Southland and the Unusuals though--so go figure...
I'm more of a SNL person--moreso than MadTV, but it really depends on the hosts/musicals guests, and writing that particular week.
I prefer Benny Hill over Monty Python any day of the week, however.
Favorite cartoons growing up were The Flintstones, Super-friends, Woody Woodpecker (Chilly Willy, too), Underdog, Scooby-Doo, Bugs Bunny, Yogi Bear, and Popeye, GI Joe, and of course Trans Formers, hell, I even liked the GoBots cartoon. However, my favorite robot cartoons were and always shall be Voltron (Lions & Space-Cars), and Robotech.
