Favorite Movies

Sci Fi movies

Star wars (first 3 original ones - ep. 4-5-6), Star Trek, Aliens, Avatar, Galaxy Quest, Fifth element, 'In the name of the King', 'Arn - The Knight Templar', 'Ironclad'.

Some films are so bad... and still are on my list, due to something i really enjoyed. for example: 'Dragon Crusaders' where i really like Cecily Fay as Aerona, a female warror.

No clue what the film was about, but her skills are awesome! I love her fighting style. Skilled in singing, dancing, and ballet. She is also trained in the martial arts of Silat Melayu.

I also love many animated movies. I like almost all of Studio Ghibli, but "Dragon Hunters" (2008, animated) is absolutely a great movie.

Pixar... yeah what can i say... i love em all.

Favorite Books

Foundation and Robots series by Asimov, Started reading when i was just 6 years old and it was a littel to heavy. i restarted when i was 7 years old and i read the foundation trillogy (3 books) in about two weeks.

After that i was hooked on Sci Fi books. (loved Perry Rhodan up until ep. 222, then it was repeating itself.)
