MONDAY MOVIE MEME
Molly looked around for a weekly meme about movies and did not have any luck. So therefore she decided to start her own! Andy will play along as well - hopefully you will too. Go to your blog and create your own post on the topic, linking back to us in your post, then come back and leave a link to your post here in our Comments section. If you don’t have a blog, just share your response in the Comments section.
This week's movie topic is all about Monsters...
As Patriots fans, we suffered a monstrous playoff loss this weekend. No more Super Bowl dreams for our team. Monstrous implies huge, scary, ugly. But monsters often get a bad rap. Sometimes, in the movies at least, they are just misunderstood. Here are some of our favorite movie monsters - with both good and bad agendas. Share on your blog those monstrous figures from films that make you smile or cower and link back here at The Bumbles. And don't forget to visit your fellow participants!

Okay, I stole one from you, but who can resist Shrek?

Sorry about the Pats.
Well, the first thing that jumped to mind was "Monsters, Inc." I think everyone loves Sully, but his fur seems so soft. You know how it gently moves in the wind when he walks around? It seems like it would be so soft.
Now Waternoose always scares the shet out of me. I don't like how he looks, he's evil, of course, and he has those crazy legs and all of those eyes. Yuck.
Damn. I can't believe I didn't think of Sully. I was focusing on icky monsters. Well, I was sort of in a hurry, because in order to get my 7 hours of sleep for the Game On Diet, I had to get to bed by 10pm! Anyway, here is mine:

You definitely covered a wide range of monsters! I was going to comment that I'm not that into monster movies, because there are too many real live human monsters out there who give me nightmares. And then you go and mention one of the ones that came to mind...Amon Goeth. I have never been able to watch a movie with Ralph Fiennes in it since seeing him in that role. I can see why he struggled emotionally. That would have been enough to put me in the looney bin.
I loved Monsters, Inc. and Shrek though. Those are my kind of monsters!
Best monsters...all of the lovable furry monsters in Sesame Street.
Yes, me too we love Shrek over here! Here is my blog post on my favorite Monster flicks!

"The Bumble", ha!
My first Movie Meme!
Once you start thinking of great monsters you can't stop! Still popping new oones (or old ones) into my head. Is it always like that with the movie meme? :-o
My list would have gone on for pages and pages! I managed to keep it pretty short, and didn't duplicate any of yours. Amon Goeth was an inspired choice.
Mine is here: http://www.endomental.com/2010/01/monday-movie-meme_11.html

Normally I don't care for scary movies which usually includes monsters. But when I think of those designed for children, that's different. I loved Monsters, Inc. and, of course, the Bumbles.
Great Movies! I'm especially happy to see Godzilla v Mothra on there!
Don't forget "Them!" the first and greatest of the "giant insects mutated-by-nuclear-experiements" movies.
It's a fairly narrow genre, I confess. :)
I hate monster movies generally, but Monsters Inc. was cute. As for the "Humble Bumble", well...geez!
Some great movies here Molly. Funny, I just watched Disney's Monsters, Inc. this afternoon with my son. I love the little girl the monsters names "Boo"
I put up some of my favorite moldie oldies :)
Look forward to visiting all of you.
Very good choices; especially Godzilla!
My choice might be a bit different. Decide for yourself HERE.
The Shadow thing on Lord of the Rings is pretty creepy.
Pennywise from It. Gave me nightmares
The Joker-Dark Knight
He Who Must Not Be Named-Harry Potter..all of them
