Brandon is quirky, too.

Brandon read my list and wanted to play, too.  This is what he came up with...
1. I am quite proud of my BluRay and DVD collection, but unlike any 
other person in the world, I do not just alphabetize my collection,
but rather have them listed alphabetically by Studio. For instance, my 
Warner Bros collection is A-Z, Paramount is A-Z, Fox is A-Z, etc.
The only exception to this rule is Tim Burton films which are listed 
in order of release. I can look at my collection and know exactly what
is missing and I know where each film goes when I am ready to put a 
DVD/BluRay back.

2. I have certain films I watch at different times in the year, and 
for odd reasons. For instance, every Christmas Eve I watch a film
called Deep Blue Sea. It has been a tradition of mine for 9 years. I 
purchased my first DVD Player on Christmas Eve but the collection
to choose from on titles was very slim. I picked up Deep Blue Sea and 
have watched it ever since on that night. Every Halloween
I watch Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow for obvious reasons. Every January 
I watch the entire Star Wars saga non stop. Every April
I have a Matrix marathon, etc. Also, I watch Terminator 2 every August 
29th for that is the date Judgement Day begins in the film,
as well as V for Vendetta on November 5th in celebration of Guy Fawkes 
Day. This list can go on and on.

3. Whenever I am on a shoot on one of my movies, I generally wear 
something lucky. I tend to wear Tim Burton themed black
and white striped socks on every film; or I am wearing a Tim Burton or 
a Brandon Young themed shirt. I have a Mind of Tim Burton shirt,
I Heart Tim Burton, and a Tim Rocks shirt that I usually wear. My crew 
has also made me a I Heart Brandon Young shirt which I now wear,
as well as shirts made regarding my films; Self Isolation, Guardian, 
and The Game Plan. My favorite shirt says I am the Director, but you can
call me God. Its a strange superstition.

4. When I am on the phone, I must be pacing. If I am sitting down 
while talking on the phone, I am generally doodling. Also, I am quite
petrified of making phone calls.

5. I absolutely detest taking baths. I instead take showers which 
generally last for about twenty minutes. I usually just stand in the 
shower
for about ten to fifteen minutes which I find extremely relaxing. 
Showers must be near scalding hot as well.

6. At a movie theater, I must sit four rows up with a bar directly 
ahead of me. This way I have a foot rest without kicking someones chair.
If I do not get my theater seat, I get very angry. Luckily my friends 
understand this and they generally save me a seat.
