Oh yea he also liked the Godfather movies and 9 1/2 weeks .... he generally loved movies with a good story... romance etc... he stayed away from R movies after getting deeper in his faith

The Godfather is where he got the name Appollonia from lol

Apollonia was already her name, weird enough. cool

A quick click to Wikipedia says her middle name is Apollonia.

Patricia Apollonia Kotero

Apollonia certainly seems like a name Prince would give one of his girls. He got beat to the chase. lol

When he was younger he was really into Marilyn Monroe, so I'd assume he liked her movies.

I recall somebody who'd taken a tour during one of the Celebrations saying they saw a video of the movie Jason and the Argonauts in one of the rooms they went through and that they heard it was one of Prince's favorites films.

I heard that he was a fan of 'Inside Out', 'The Matrix' & 'Zootopia' so far.




I don't know if he got a chance to watch Zootopia or not? He said he wanted a special place and time for that, so I wonder if he ever got the chance. I know when I watched it there were things that made me think of him, like the little bunny's purple eyes.



When I heard he wanted to watch zootopia I not going lie I was touched, it's a good movie , I hope he got the chance to see it

I read somewhere that at one point he was a fan of David Lynch's work. After becoming JW he steered toward more PG-rated movies though.

wow cool

i wonder if he liked studio ghibli stuff.

i wondered why he chose certain films to show at recent paisley parties. rio was played, Oz the great was played several times, and car wash was played repeatedly at the hnrp1 release party.
