Ok. What type of movies did your psycho X watch? My XN LOVED and enjoyed Saw 1-4. I have never watched any horror movies. It would be extremely disturbing to me. Watching the Last of the Mohicans was enough visual violence to last me a lifetime.
My ex-N tended to be into art films... but apparently "Terminator" was one of his favorites,and he liked being compared with Jack Nicholson in "The Shining." He also liked watching The Simpsons...
he didn't care much for movies....and the few he did he watched over and over......Leaving Las Vegas was one of his favorites...he dreamed of drinking as much as Nick Cage..looks like he accomplished it finally......
what the psycho liked were those 'kill your wife and get away with it' docudramas on 48 hours and Dateline and Court Tv...and biographies of serial killers...he had HOURS of those things recorded on his Tivo...and he'd watch them over and over and over....and critique the murders...how if OJ had just kept his cool that lost glove and bloodbath wouldn't have had to happen...how Scott Peterson should have tried harder to look concerned......
after watching a couple about guys who pushed their wives overboard on cruise ships he started trying to get me to go on a cruise.....
damn i'm glad he's dead.........
Won't listen to the Grateful Dead the same way again
Thanks to my ex-N, I understand what the Dead meant when they sang "Friend of the Devil."
One of my friends said my ex-N was attracted to me because I had what he didn't-friends, happiness, peace of mind, kindness, wisdom, etc. I liked hearing that, after how he had humiliated and constantly belittled me.
major flashback......he pretty much hated music..but he LOVED that song...he had sold cocaine to jerry garcia...him about ten thousand other dumbasses...and he just loved the guy...you'd think what happened to garcia would have clued him in......
but yeah...he LOVED that song...it's the only song i ever knew him to know the lyrics to......
i'd forgotten all about that.......
Set out runnin' but I take my time,
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine,
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
and he always claimed that 'candyman' was about HIM...shit..i'd forgotten that too!!...that was his middle name, and his alias according to him, when he was selling drugs....Benson......Mr. Benson.....i remember him bragging about that.....maybe it was about him.....the sentiment seems to fit....
Good Mornin Mr. Benson
I see you're doin well
If I had me a shotgun
I'd blow you straight to Hell
He couldn't stay still long enough to watch a movie. He'd go outside to smoke, he'd leave to the store, whatever. Just as long as he didn't have to stay put. If by chance he hadn't moved...he'd be fast asleep! What a waste of time on this loser!
Mine was a TREKKI, however you spell it...BIG TIME. I was forced to watch marathons, not that I don't like 'some' Sci-Fi, but you just want someone to shoot you after 6 hours of straight Star Trek...I'm surprised I'm not fluent in friggin Klingon. And ST can be very sexist...especially the early days...no surprises there.
He also loved JAMES BOND. The bad-ass hero that gets the chicks...hmmmm. Terminator, tough-guy anything movies...
Since mine had no spine and not much of a brain he did not have an opinion so it was pretty much what I wanted to watch.
With TV, anything from sci-fi to cartoons. As long as someone or something was getting smashed or hurt. He would and I know still does gaze at the TV for hours and hours. No brain matter there......
Let's see if I can remember . . .
Halloween, Ordinary People, Empire Strikes Back, The Big Lebowski, LA Confidential, The Godfather 1&2, Network, . . . Hmmmm Not remembering all of them . . . good!
His favorite t.v. shows were, The Sopranos, Mad Men, Seinfeld, Heroes
He said his guilty pleasure was watching horror films. He wrote screenplays about vampires. Go figure!
exNH loves foreign films... the really boring ones that go on & on with some bizarre metaphor that even I (a former actor) can't make sense of... the stuff that is in the 99 cent bin at Blockbuster...

"the stuff that is in the 99 cent bin at Blockbuster..."
LMAO! I know, some of those foreign flicks, especially from the 60's are so weird...it figures!
Total Star Wars Geek. Still has collectibles and action figures in his room(at38 years old)And he loved Breakfast at Tiffany's (that made me go, hmmm?)
We liked many of the same movies.I have the guilty pleasure of watching horror...not slasher/serial killer stuff...but the supernatural stuff.
And let's not forget Space Balls...he loved that,too.
I am not a big Star Wars geek, but I know enough that he is not the Jedi he pretends to be. He is Sith through and through.
