Alphabet Movie Meme

My friend Keith over at Kano's Kogitation tagged me to do an alphabet movie meme. This is my first attempt at anything relating to movies, so bare with me. As you all probably know, I watch a lot of kids movies, comedies and girlie movies so there won't be much variety, I'm sure. Below are the rules and then my movie picks for each letter of the alphabet.

The Rules

1. Pick one film (your favorite film) to represent each letter of the alphabet.

2. The letter "A" and the word "The" do not count as the beginning of a film's title, unless the film is simply titled A or The, and I don't know of any films with those titles.

3. Return of the Jedi belongs under "R," not "S" as in Star Wars Episode IV: Return of the Jedi. This rule applies to all films in the original Star Wars trilogy; all that followed start with "S." Similarly, Raiders of the Lost Ark belongs under "R," not "I" as in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. In other words, movies are stuck with the titles their owners gave them at the time of their theatrical release. Conversely, all films in the LOTR series belong under "L" and all films in the Chronicles of Narnia series belong under "C," as that's what those filmmakers called their films from the start. Use your better judgement to apply the above rule to any series/films not mentioned.

4. Films that start with a number are filed under the first letter of their number's word. 12 Monkeys would be filed under "T."

5. Link back to Blog Cabins in your post so that I can eventually type "alphabet meme" into Google and come up #1, then make a post where I declare that I am the King of Google.

6. If you're selected, you have to then select 5 more people.

Aladdin

Butterfly Effect, The

Center Stage

Drumline

Erin Brockovich

Father of the Bride

Ghost

How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Ice Age

That was pretty fun....difficult, but fun. Since I don't have too many blogs that I read (or vice verse) I can't tag anyone....but if you want to do this feel free!
