Tell me ALL about yourself.

[Dr. Briggs]

- I wanna be a filmmaker, whether it's a writer, director, actor, or even editor, I don't know yet. I don't want to get saddled with one of the grunt jobs though

- I am a film enthusiast (And compulsive special edition DVD collector) since there are too many books and too much music to obsess about

- Though I love subtext and shit, I think a movie's best quality is it's ability to entertain in the way it's genre promises

- I like original ideas, though oldies done well can be just as good

- Horror is my favorite genre, followed by crime/thriller. Comedy gets dull after a few viewings for me, action is often "too unbelievable to be serious yet too serious to be fun", war has characters that often put me off, and sci-fi is usually either too slow or too "Hollywood". I've been wanting to get into romance but I have yet to find something that actually looks "feel good" (I tried Amelie, but that ended up having somebody killing themselves and someone else within the first 15 minutes... >_<)

- Rear Window and Horror of Dracula are quite likely the most overrated films out there, Caddyshack, CHUD and The Shawshank Redemption are also candidates

-Though I do take it seriously, I don't see animation in the same group as other films - It simply has too much technically different

- I'm an awful procrastinator, and I tend to worry a whole lot about the stuff I put off

- I am a pessimist (AKA realist ), though I do try and see the good in everyone and work hard to get to the bright side once something bad actually happens

- I tend to see "the dark side" of life, which I think makes me an ideal aspiring horror-writer X)

- I could use more experience at just about everything I enjoy, though I have the tendency to wrongly proclaim myself an expert. Still, I am working hard on becoming a horror buff and writer.

- I have a fear of being mistrusted or called a poser, or offending anyone

- I can have a low self esteem (For good reason, IMO. See the 2 facts above)

- I don't speak well, not really due to shyness but simply my social awkwardness and the aforementioned fears

- I like to make my opinions heard, and I think I, and everyone else, should stand out

- Favorite horror series are Phantasm, Puppet Master, Basket Case, Saw, and some others depending on my mood X)

- For right now: Favorite Phantasm character: Mike. Favorite Puppet Master puppet: Torch. Favorite Basket Case freak besides Belial: Sidney/"Toothy". Favorite Saw trap: The venus fly-trap.

- I think The Texas Chainsaw Massacre '74 is the most perfectly done horror film I have seen

- I know a lot of odd trivia

- Usually I can see the humor in everyday situations

- I have a Strip Generator Blog going

- I am a former big-time player of Territory War Online

- I am an online forum addict, on other forums my handles are usually either Mr. Briggs Inc. (Or some variation) or Doctor Diabolical

- I have a bisexual girlfriend, her other side is currently single :|

- I have an odd fetish

- I've never had a job, it's a dream of mine to break into "the biz" as fast as possible

- I'm a teetotaller

- My favorite season is autumn, temperate and atmospheric

- I love the rain!

- I don't want to get married or have kids

- My favorite color is green

- The best kind of humor to me is "unintentional badness" X)

- "Weird shit happening" is also a contender for the best type of humor XD

- I can and will inadvertantly either offend or get on almost anyone's nerves, often losing a lot of friends that way

- I can be paranoid and a hypochondriac, to me, it's for good reason (Bob Marley died from a fucking bump on his leg)

- I can find at least something GOOD and something BAD in every movie I see

- I am a nondenominational Christian, and I try and pray each night provided I'm not too exhausted, and I do think everyone can make it to Heaven, faith or not (Though it helps ).

- I often get worried about what is really moral, and if I can really consider myself a good guy

- I also worry about my mental state, especially now... X(

- One of my favorite pastimes is just laying down and thinking about life/potential plots for stories

- I stay up late

- I get up early

- Steven Seagal could beat Chuck Norris, and Don Niam could hold his own with Seagal

- Kool Moe Dee pwnt LL Cool J

- I've been in to Pink Floyd lately (My girlfriend got me into 'em), though I don't often get "in to" music, much less specific bands

- I like to read books and want to do more of it, though I often get sidetracked before finishing

- My favorite books are either based on movies or what movies are based on. Right now they're Pet Sematary, Marathon Man, and Dark Star

- I'm a brunette... bruno? Ach, I have dark-brown hair!

- I was once vehemently against DVD since I was afraid my favorite films on VHS would get forgotten about (And even in my current DVD fanatacism, I still do )

- I wear plain shirts, khaki pants, and shoes without laces (the things never seem to stay tied for me >.> )

- It took me until 8th grade to ride a bike, and it took me till sophomore year to learn how to whistle, yes, I am mentally sound to my knowledge >.<

- I'm currently in college, intermediate spanish, english 102, philosophy, psychology, and some kinda math. Planning to major in creative writing and minor in videography

- I like to let myself get scared when watching horror movies, and I like to scare my kid sister as well

- My father is currently recovering from an awful illness

- I'm currently writing a few scripts, and editing two movies (Puppet Master 4 and 5) together

- I can play some bass and baritone (Both named after pitches XD), though I don't especially it (I like the latter more though)
