I collect film scores, nearly 100 are in my collection. Some of them cannot be found in stores.

I also collect carousels, snow globes and music boxes, coffee mugs, and keychains.

I love international cuisine, especially Italian, Mexican and Chinese.

I love any film with a good story to it. In random order, here's some of my recent favorites:

Brokeback Mountain
Munich
Miracle
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, & The Wardrobe
Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
LOTR, all 3 films; come on, what kind of film buff would I be if I DIDN'T have it listed?

Favorite Scores of All Time:

The Ten Commandments (1956, Elmer Bernstein)
Brokeback Mountain (2005, Gustavo Santaolalla)
Munich (2005, John Williams)
The Village (2004, James Newton Howard)
Lady In The Water (2006, James Newton Howard)
Braveheart (1995, James Horner)

I also love musicals:

An American In Paris
The Wizard of Oz (who doesn't love this one?)
West Side Story
Les Miserables (all-time favorite)
Fiddler On The Roof

I'm also a figure skating fan, particularly of the men's event.

I also enjoy SELECT performances from Timothy Goebel, but don't get your hopes up, American In Paris is NOT one of them. (American Pie IS, as are most of his exhibitions. Just like Evan Lysacek only worse, Tim was NEVER a very interesting competitor; Michael Weiss is the same way)
