Houdini's Magic Ticket

Dan from www.top10films.co.uk recently started a great blogathon that you should check out, it's wonderful! http://www.top10films.co.uk/archives/8591/comment-page-5#comment-37359

Basically, if you can get a magic ticket transporting you anywhere you want, what would you do with it?

What animated feature would you love to walk around in?


I've never been a huge animation movie fan, but I remember growing up and seeing Beauty and the Beast and Snow White over and over again! If I'd have to choose, Beauty&Beast wins just for the great songs and great characters!

If you were a cop who would you want as a partner?
Are you kidding me? Mark Whalberg any time night and day! He is one bad ass mother f***er!Loved him in this movie! He might be evil, the bad cop, and he gets the job done!

What character would you most want to enjoy a passionate romance with?

This is probably the hardest one! Being a rather sensible, romantic girl, there are so many to choose!Trying to remember the best romance movies I have seen, I can't really say that I would like to have a passionate fling with either of them! I love Dirty Dancing, The Notebook, Legends of the fall, but I wouldn't like to be involved with Patrick Swayze. So it comes down to Ryan Gosling or Brad Pitt- considering we are talking about character and not actor, I guess I have to choose....no, I won't, I can't!
Oh, I know, I got it!
Have you guys ever seen Country Strong? I would love to get a guy like Beau Hutton, tall, sweet, deep voice, guitar man, who I can have a quiet night at home! Garrett Hedlund all the way!
See, you are getting the romantic side out of me! It's so cheesy sometimes! :)

What movie gadget would you love to try out?


That's easy, the Dolerean time machine! You can guess why...I would just borrow it for a couple of journey back in time, during the 1800s England and one in the future; wonder how I will look like!


What film's plot would you alter and how would you do it?

Hard to say, I don't usually have the need to change the plot. I think the only time I remember it to happen has the end of American History X; I was so furious about what happened and I wished I could change something! But I couldn't really say how I would alter it! No inspiration here, sorry!

What one film would you most want to be transported into, simply to be a part of that world?

Again, not a surprise here, but I love the Harry Potter world and the movies are really good!In some points, even better then the books (horror, I know)!

That's my take!Hope you liked it!

  1. Great choice for a film you'd like to be transported into. I think Harry Potter is a world I wouldn't mind spending some time in myself. There's good and bad, magic and mayhem, but in the end, most people live happily ever after.

    As you know I also chose Beauty and the Beast for animated feature - such a great film.

  2. Nice idea from Dan! But don't change the end of AHX! It's an absolute killer ending!

  3. @Dan: thanks for the idea, it was fun doing it!
    @Pturner1010: the ending is very powerful and mindblowing, but I just said what I felt in that moment; I agree it was great for the film, but I was so furious that I wished I could do something about it!

  4. Hi Aziza,

    Nice list! Good pick there with Wahlberg, he was funny as a cop in The Other Guys as well.

    The HP world is enchanting too, I just wouldn't want to be transported towards the end when Hogwarts got attacked! :)

  6. Fun and interesting answers Aziza! Glad you got join in on the fun. Mark Whalberg was one BAMF in The Departed! He is a great pick. And nothing like the world of Harry Potter (which I also chose) as the ultimate movie universe to be transported into :)

  8. @Ruth: Thanks Ruth! Mark Whalberg is bad ass no matter what movie he is in! The last scenes in HP are sad,but still great!

    @Andy: Well, they're not the most original ones, but I had fun doing it! You should try it, too!

    @Castor: Oh, mister Caster, film blog royalty dropping by to comment- I am very lucky!:) Thanks! Glad you liked it!
