Music, Movies, and Books

Wes Anderson movies, most scifi movies, Wall-E is by far the best movie I've seen. Watched a lot of adventure and action films growing up, so I know my Schwarzenegger lines quite well.
I've been reading a lot of non-fiction lately, planning to do an open uni social psychology course.
