Ok, Ian, I see why you wanted me back - I've missed being tagged at least three times. I'm going to have to cheat a little and combine the posts so they are all together. I'll try and catch up with everyone's blogs at some point soon. Sorry.
Tag 1: Movies
1. Total number of movies I own on DVD/video
Erm - they are my weakness, so too many - and I don't have a telly. I think it's 53 DVDs (including tv stuff) but I've traded about 20 recently. They are:
13 going on 30, Almost Famous, Amelie, American Splendor, The Beiderbecke Affair, The Beiderbecke Tapes, The Beiderbecke Connection (box set), Bend it Like Beckham, The Bourne Identity, But I'm A Cheerleader, Chicago, Die Another Day, The Dish, Dogma, Empire Records, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Fellowship of the Rings, Get Over It, Goodbye Lenin, Grease, Ice Age, The Incredibles, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (Box set), Josie and the Pussycats, Kissing Jessica Stein, Mean Girls, Monsters Inc, Motorcycle Diaries, Moulin Rouge, My First Mister, Ocean's Eleven, Peter Pan, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Romeo and Juliet, Saved!, The Secret Policeman's Ball - Complete Boxed Set, Shattered Glass, The Shawshank Redemption, Shrek, Spirited Away, The Station Agent, Strictly Ballroom, Tipping the Velvet, Tomb Raider, Toy Story, Toy Story 2, Van Helsing, The World is Not Enough and X-Men.
2. Last movie I bought
Saved!
3. Last movie I watched
Star Wars Episode III
4. Five movies that mean a lot to me
Er...
Strictly Ballroom - It's worth it just to hear my grandparents trying to make us 'Show [them our] Paso Doble'
Moulin Rouge - If you've never heard Nat, Jenn and I yelling along to El Tango de Roxanne then you're very fortunate but it is definitely a good thing from my time at uni.
The Incredibles - It's just such a great film and I got it by trading in some of my old and unwanted DVDs, so it was free.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show - It reminds me of making one of my (male) uni friends a corset for our trip to the theatre to see the show.
Pirates of the Caribbean - It's just such complete escapism!

I'll come back to this later...
I've just come back from a good night with good friends and although I have a 9am lecture, I'm too excited and generally high to get to sleep, so thought I would take up Tractor Girl's challenge.
Total Volume of music on your computer:
Which computer? Between the two, I must have about 10GB music.
The last album you purchased was:
Well, the newest album I have is Kasabian's new one but I didn't buy it. I don't think I've bought an album in about 4 years!
Song Playing right now:
Radio 4 - not that it's a song but it was playing Iraqi music.
Seven songs you've been listening to a lot recently, from several genres:
Fearless - The Bravery (It's on Kerrang! lots)
Early One Morning/Young Collins - Jim Moray (It's often on in the office)
In the Waiting Line - Zero 7 (from the Garden State soundtrack - great film)
Superman - Stereophonics (Kerrang again)
Sailing By - I don't know who it's by but it is always a sign that I need more sleep.
Little Sister - Queens of the Stone Age (Kerrang yet again)
The National Anthem - It's after sailing by and before I often go to sleep.
Enough different styles covered?
