My favorite film genres would be crime/gangster (I like both on the same level), sci-fi, action, thrillers, war, animation (Especially if it's by Disney, Pixar, Dreamworks, and Studio Ghibli), dramas (Depends on what the draa is about.), and documentaries (Especially if it's about World War I, World War II, or animals.). I'm also especially enticed by films that involve a lot of mystery, use found-footage style of filming, includes aliens, technology, and a lot of the little things that I like (Can't really explain them.). I am also a sucker for movies that take a famous person and re-writes important parts of their lives to something that you know did not happen (Like The Raven and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. These 2 are guilty pleasures for me just because they take 2 well known figures, Edgar Allen Poe and obviously Abraham Lincoln, and rewrites their lives having Poe trying to figure out who a killer is who is using his poems for their murders and Abraham Lincoln obviously slaying vampires.).
As for movie genres I don't like, I don't like musicals, romances, sports, and comedies. I'm not saying that I hate every film in these genres, because there are some musicals I do like and of course I do love some comedies, it's just that I'm not a big fan of these genres. In musicals if I don't like the music then I will have to go through the whole film listening to music that will either bore me or is making my ears, and possibly eyes, bleed uncontrollably and painfully. Not a fan of romances because I find a lot of them either so stupid that wouldn't work out for a real relationship, that and I'm just not into them. I don't like sport movies because I don't like sports simple as that, I do enjoy eSports, but there are no eSport movies (The Wizard doesn't count as an eSports movie. That movie is more about adventure than eSports.), there is supposedly one coming out, but it's documentary so that won't count. And I love a lot of comedy movies, but for every awesome and hilarious comedy I watch, there is going to be 100 painfully unfunny, insensitive, boring, and lame comedies that may or may not cater to a bunch of 10 year olds or immature teenagers. Also while this ain't a genre, I'm going to also get out that I don't care for Disney sequels. Out of all the Disney sequels, I only like 1 of them, the rest were un-needed or were just really awful.
As for my favorite movies, I don't have a favorite, but I do have a list of films I do consider my favorites. Some of my favorites are Gravity, Side Effects, The Matrix, Disney Nature's Bears, a good majority of Disney animated films, Kung-Fu Panda and Kung-Fu Panda 2, Battle Royale, Lincoln, Ted, Saving Private Ryan, Casino Royale (2006), Chronicle, The Matrix movies, the Paranormal Activity movies, End of Watch, Looper, Ed Wood, Ghost in the Shell, Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: Solid State Society, just to name a few.
And as for films that I really hate. Ulli Lommel's Black Dahlia, White Chicks, all of the Movie movies, and possibly the one that I hate the most is ATM (To sum this movie up as easily as possible, it's stupid, all the characters are morons, sshould've ended within just a few minutes due to all the circumstances, but it is dragged out for way to long and literally nothing happens for a majority of the film.).
As for my favorite directors and actors, I don't have any.
