Homework - Posting to the movie club

Today we read paragraphs written by four different people in an online movie club (page 2 - Alejandro, Carolyn, Nan and David). The people in this movie club described their *taste in movies.

*taste has many meanings, one meaning is preference

Write a post to the movie club (5-7 sentences) describing your taste in movies. Use some of the questions below to help you write.

  • What genres of movies do you like?
  • What do you like about movies?
  • What genres of movies do you dislike? 
  • What do you dislike about movies?
  •  Do you ever have to strike a compromise with people when you're trying to decide what movie to watch?
  • Are you a sucker for any specific genre of movie?
