Music
I'm into a lot of eclectic stuff, from Aimee Mann to Warren Zevon. I enjoy classical, love Tango, techno, Yello, Berlin, Colourbox, Justified Ancients of MuMu, and other assorted delights.
Movies
Ever changing. I love Sci-Fi, especially dark and deep ones like Sunshine, Solaris, and Sphere. Apparently, any movie that starts with an "s". I enjoy campy B-movies, from classics like Evil Dead and Army of Darkness, to anything by Charles Bronson. The Indiana Jones trilogy is probably my all-time favorite, consistently. Can't go wrong with a fun action-loving hero that has a good heart. "It belongs in a museum!"
Television
Psych, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Doctor Who, First 48... What more do you need in life than comedy, sci-fi adventure, and crime stories?!
Books
Charles Baudelaire, HP Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, S. E. Hinton, Theodore Taylor, Harper Lee.
But I also like some more contemporary writers, of course, like Stephen King and Chuck Palahniuk. I'm also a fan of romance and I believe some of the best stuff is being published today by small authors through electronic distributors. The big houses should start paying attention.
